Anadarko roll out to additional sites

After a successful pilot earlier in 2010, C3 global and our American partners Sean Allen, are proud to announce the roll out across North America of a chemical management programme for over 48,000 natural gas wells with oil and gas giant, Anadarko.

The original trial in Vernal, UT saw dramatic savings in chemical spend and dosage monitoring which led to the decision by Anadarko to expand with additional sites. Vernal was chosen initially due it being deemed one of the most demanding locations in terms of its soaring chemical costs given its geology; chemical spend accounts for the third largest spend element in the company’s cost structure for exploration and production.

The Anadarko evaluation team found commercially available solutions to be relatively limited or required multiple products from different organizations, while the C3 Global solution offered the only clear solution for one stop procurement, which had the ability to capture, perform calculations and present data in an effective and efficient manner.

Critical benefits of the Chemical Management solution will be to significantly reduce the chemical spend across all wells by monitoring and ensuring the precise dosage of chemicals are applied by 3rd party vendors. This is done by applying the results of the samples and chemical compositions into the system directly using web based input forms.

Anadarko is among the largest independent oil and natural gas exploration and production companies in the world, with approximately 2.3 billion barrels of oil equivalent (BBOE) of proved reserves at year-end 2009. Anadarko's portfolio of assets encompasses premier positions in nearly a dozen major U.S. onshore natural gas resource plays. The company also is the largest independent deepwater producer in the Gulf of Mexico, and has production and/or exploration in Alaska, Algeria, Brazil, China, Indonesia, Mozambique and West Africa.
