Removes sulfur from crude oil, making it sweeter and higher quality
PetroX SWEET is a sulfur-reduction chemical designed to "sweeten" sour crudes by removing organically bound and metallic sulfur species that contribute to off-spec crude and corrosion. It operates through an advanced industrial chelation system that selectively binds sulfur-bearing compounds—especially those stabilized by transition metals like iron and vanadium—and transfers them into the water phase for removal.
Applications include onshore and offshore production systems, crude treatment trains, desalting units, and any stage in the process where lowering total sulfur content improves oil quality or compliance. It is particularly valuable in blending facilities and midstream operations aiming to meet pipeline specs.
Unlike conventional oxidizers or amine-based scavengers, PetroX SWEET works at neutral pH and ambient temperature, preserving asset integrity and enabling continuous treatment. It enhances oil value by reducing corrosivity and acidity, improves phase separation, and outperforms many sulfur scavengers in safety, efficiency, and operational cost. PetroX SWEET is the preferred solution for producers seeking cleaner, higher-value barrels with minimal environmental impact.
