Research Summary
A Drag Reducing Agent (DRA) for the oil and gas industry is a specialized chemical additive used to improve the flow efficiency of crude oil and hydrocarbon liquids through pipelines. Also referred to as flow improvers or pipeline friction reducers, DRAs are vital in addressing the challenges of transporting viscous fluids over long distances. These agents work by altering the flow dynamics of the fluid, reducing turbulence and friction against the pipeline walls. By introducing a small quantity of DRA into the oil or hydrocarbon liquid, pipelines can achieve higher flow rates, reduce pressure drops, and subsequently optimize energy consumption. This is particularly advantageous in oil and gas operations where the transportation of significant volumes of crude oil or other hydrocarbons requires efficient and cost-effective pipeline management. DRAs have played a significant role in enhancing the throughput of pipelines, minimizing operational costs, and extending the lifespan of pipelines by mitigating wear and tear caused by turbulent flow conditions.
