About Xedia
Xedia Process Solutions (XPS) develops and applies innovative water treatment media technologies. We deliver integrated water treatment equipment and services to customers in the oil & gas and industrial sectors around the world.
We focus on creating Practical, Effective, & Economical Solution to the Energy and Industrial Sectors’ most challenging waste water applications
Xedia Process Solutions was formed by a group of experienced water treatment technologists. Our business operates with a simple mindset: provide better technology to increase production, reduce lifecycle costs, and protect the environment. Unlike most water treatment technology companies, we are offering simple, practical solutions aimed at enabling the lowest possible lifecycle cost for our customers while fully satisfying their performance requirements. Our sales leadership has a successful track record of doing business with most of the notable E&P and service companies, and we expect to continue building these relationships, we will use a “no silver bullet” approach, utilizing Xedia technologies alongside market available equipment to offer the best available, optimized solutions.
In addition to squeezed profit margins and the resultant lack of capital investment capability, our customers are faced with increasingly strict global environmental regulations. Aging equipment and technologies are eating away at already reduced profit margins and creating increased risks of environmental contaminations. Maximizing profit and minimizing environmental impact are the primary goals of our customers, and robust, low-cost solutions for water treatment in both new projects and existing underperforming installations is a key requirement for realizing these goals.
Existing solutions in the market have limited capacities, high consumption of consumable materials, inadequate performance, and intolerance to commonly used oilfield chemicals. Traditional systems are exposed to increased water cuts and treatment conditions outside the specified operating envelope, both of which cause inconsistent performance, restricted production capacity, and increased instances of damaging downstream equipment or contaminating the environment. XPS’ technologies resolve each of these challenges with minimal additional CAPEX requirements, and they also provide solutions for future production challenges such as: heavy metal contamination, high-viscosity water (e.g. Chemical EOR), and reduced footprint requirements (e.g. offshore facilities).
Treating the World’s toughest waste waters just got easier.
