Manufacturing & supply
ENORDET* surfactants for enhanced oil recovery are manufactured by the same processes that produce large volumes of a variety of detergents. Shell Chemicals has been committed to detergent manufacture for over 40 years and is extending that commitment to the ENORDET surfactants product range.
Supply security
Shell chemicals companies are large volume suppliers of surfactants and surfactant feedstock to major detergent manufacturers. We operate world class production facilities in Geismar, Louisiana (USA) and in Stanlow (UK), that are ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified. By being fully integrated with the ethylene feedstock supply chain, we offer a strong record of reliable supply to our customers.
Logistics
We serve customers globally; products can be shipped using marine vessels, barges, railroad and trucks. Smaller quantities can be arranged in IBC or drums for small-scale pilot testing.
We work continually to reduce transport costs for our customers by offering more shipping options. Examples of our innovative approach include: high active matter (HAM) liquids and pastes, even more concentrated surfactant powders, and effective means to dilute these concentrates down to the required concentration of 0.3 – 1.0% in the final ASP solution.
Health, Safety, Security & Environment (HSSE)
Shell chemicals companies are committed to complying with all regulations during manufacture, transport, storage and use of our ENORDET surfactant products. HSSE specialists are available to support our customers in meeting their HSSE requirements.
