Smarter Chemistry Than Standard Commodity Biocides
Most products currently sold into the oil & gas market are single-purpose commodity biocides — they may kill bacteria, but often fail to address the real root causes of production loss:
- Iron sulfide plugging
- Biofilm shielding bacteria
- Repeated SRB regrowth
- Corrosion under deposits
- Multiple chemical injections
- High logistics and treatment cost
At Eco FLOTEC Global, our SourShield™ range is designed as a next-generation performance chemistry platform — combining microbial control, iron sulfide management, deposit control, and operational efficiency in one smarter program.
Why Standard Market Products Often Fall Short
Typical Products in the Market
Many operators currently use:
- Generic Glutaraldehyde
- Commodity THPS
- Basic DBNPA
- Separate chelant drums
- Separate dispersants
- Separate scale products
Common Problems:
- Only kills bacteria, does not remove FeS sludge
- Bacteria hidden inside biofilm survive
- Multiple tanks / pumps required
- Higher freight and storage cost
- More operator handling
- Frequent reinfection cycles
- Injector pressure keeps rising
Why SourShield™ Is Better
Eco FLOTEC Advantage = Multi-Function Chemistry
Instead of selling one chemical for one issue, we design products that tackle multiple causes of souring and plugging.
Benefits of SourShield™ Programs:
- Kill SRB / APB bacteria
- Reduce H₂S generation
- Help dissolve or disperse iron sulfide
- Penetrate slime and biofilm
- Lower injector pressure
- Reduce corrosion risk
- Fewer products to manage
- Better overall treatment economics
SourShield™ Product Comparison
SourShield CI-200
Better Than Generic Continuous THPS Programs
Many sites feed straight THPS only.
Our Advantage:
- Combines SRB control with iron sulfide management
- Helps keep injectors cleaner longer
- Lower risk of solids buildup
- Better system stability
Value:
- Lower chemical changeouts
- Lower operating pressure
- Higher water throughput
SourShield Shock-G
Better Than Standard Glutaraldehyde Slugs
Many shock treatments kill planktonic bacteria only.
Our Advantage:
- Designed for deeper penetration into biofilm and slime layers
- Better for mature contamination events
- Strong system reset performance
Value:
- Faster recovery after contamination
- Reduced downtime
- Lower repeat shock frequency
Rapid-D
Better Than Generic DBNPA
Standard DBNPA is often used as a simple kill product.
Our Advantage:
- Optimised for fast deployment and rapid bacterial reduction
- Strong support for intermittent treatment programs
Value:
- Quick microbial knockdown
- Protects water transfer systems
- Reduced bacterial bloom risk
FeS-Clean 50
Better Than Acid-Only Cleaning
Many operators rely on acids or mechanical cleanouts.
Our Advantage:
- Targets iron sulfide specifically
- Helps disperse black sludge
- Reduces under-deposit corrosion risk
- Can support online remediation programs
Value:
- Lower plugging events
- Improved injectivity
- Less expensive intervention work
Why Operators Choose Performance Chemistry
Cheap chemical programs often become expensive when they cause:
Workovers
Lost production
Corrosion failures
Pipeline restrictions
Emergency shutdowns
A premium treatment program that prevents these issues can return many times its cost.
