Fatty Alkyl Amine
A Simple Way to Guard Metal in Oil and Gas Sites
Corrosion can sneak in quietly. One weak point, and metal starts to wear out. That is where fatty alkyl amine helps. It forms a thin shield on metal surfaces. Stops water, acids, and gases from getting it. Works well in harsh upstream conditions. Keeps equipment stronger for longer. And it does all it without messing up your fluids or flow. Just add and go.
Key Benefits of Fatty Alkyl Amine
01
Makes a protective layer
It builds a barrier on the metal. So air, water, or salts cannot eat through it.
02
Works in tough spots
From pipelines to tanks, it performs even in high heat and pressure.
03
Reduces downtime
Less rust means fewer repairs. Less cleaning. More running hours.
04
Helps cut costs
No need to replace corroded parts often. This saves money over time.
05
Mixes well with other stuff
Plays nicely with other chemicals used in upstream systems.
06
Safe for equipment
Gentle on your assets. But tough on corrosion threats.
Applications of Fatty Alkyl Amine
Production Tubing
Stops rust inside long, narrow pipes where damage is hard to catch early.
Storage tanks
Helps preserve large holding units exposed to water or gas.
Pipelines
Protects flowlines carrying oil, gas, or mixed fluids.
Separators
Keeps internals clean and rust-free to ensure smooth separation.
Injection Wells
Prevents acid or gas from corroding inner walls during treatment.
Remote rigs
Ideal for far-off sites where regular checkups are hard.

FAQs
on Fatty Alkyl Amine
It sticks to metal and forms a protective coat. This stops corrosive agents from reaching the surface. It does this without harming your process fluids.
Yes. It blends well with other additives like scale inhibitors or biocides. You do not need to change your system for it.
Yes. It is often used in HPHT areas. It holds up well under stress.
That depends on the site. In continuous operations, small doses are added regularly. In batch mode, it is added before problems appear.
Yes. It protects against both oil-phase and water-phase corrosion.
