Upstream oil operations have improved their efficiency and capability of pulling greater quantities of oil out of the ground. Engineers achieve this by drilling deeper, using enhanced oil recovery (EOR), and running at higher temperatures. Although effective, these tactics can pose challenges to the seals used in pumps and compressors, as they often create demanding operating environments.
In this article, Garlock Project Engineer, Sarah Young, and Garlock Applications Engineer, Brett Yoder, explain how seal selection can help you achieve efficiency, productivity, and safety in upstream oil production.
