IRIS Tech

Dive into the dynamics of crude oil transportation! One oil pipeline with a 300,000 barrel capacity transports as much crude oil as 1400 tanker truckloads or 441 tanker railroad cars! #crudeoiltransportation #dragreducers #DRA #oilpipelines

IRIS Tech Returns to ADIPEC for Another Year of Innovation We’re thrilled to announce that IRIS Tech will be attending the 2023 ADIPEC conference. ADIPEC is the world’s premier gathering of energy industry leaders, and we’re proud to once again be a part of this conference where the future of energy is shaped. Join IRIS Tech from October 2 to October 5 at our booth (# 5310 in hall 5) to discover cutting-edge solutions for optimizing crude oil and refined product pipelines. This year’s showcase includes a spotlight on HyMotion™ DRA, our next-generation dry drag reducing agent designed to revolutionize pipeline operations. At ADIPEC 2023 we hope to engage in insightful discussions about the global energy transition, and explore real value in a decarbonized future. We’re excited to present ground-breaking solutions that address both challenges and opportunities as global energy market dynamics continue to evolve. Stay tuned for updates as we count down to ADIPEC 2023. See you there! #ADIPEC2023 #OilandGas #Innovation #EnergyTransition #DRA #PipelineOptimization #IRISTech #ADIPEC #GlobalEnergy #dragreducer

Operating Crude Oil Pipelines at Lower Costs   The construction of oil pipelines is an expensive and complex process. Engineers work hard to reduce costs and optimize pipeline designs, because every decision counts at scale. Drag Reducing Agents or DRAs are a revolutionary technology that, when added to pipelines, can reduce pipeline costs and optimize design. Let’s take a look at a real-life example.   MPLX announced an increase of its Wood River-to-Patoka expansion pipeline's capacity from 215,000 bpd to 345,000 bpd. They executed this plan by increasing horsepower and adding DRA to their pipelines. The DRA was incorporated into the pipeline sections connecting the old pipes to the new pipes, increasing the capacity of the old pipes for a cost-effective and efficient solution.   DRA allows for more precise calculation of a pipeline’s optimal concentration, injection points, and required pumps. This means the pipeline can be constructed with standard width pipes and less pumping stations to still reach required pumping power. This saves money on construction costs, but also means less maintenance costs for operators, as DRA reduces wear and tear on the pipeline.

Some reflections on this year’s BBQ N Blues Festival in Cushing, OK - what a blast!   First of all, a special shoutout to the Cushing Chamber of Commerce for bringing together pipeline companies, oil and gas suppliers, and the local Cushing community for a weekend showcasing our industry’s unique spirit and vibrant camaraderie. Thank you!   We were fortunate to sponsor Hole 11 at the festival’s golf tournament, where we awarded a lucky raffle winner a Bushnell Tour V5 golf rangefinder. Congratulations to the winner - go for the green!   For Friday evening, we mingled with family and friends at the festival, and witnessed some seriously impressive axe throwing skills. Look out!   We look forward to attending more great events like this to foster connections and create positive memories.    Thanks again! #pipelineindustry #oilandgasindustry #PipelineCompanies #OilandGasSuppliers #dragreducingagent #oilandgas
