Permian Enterprises was formed in 1948 for the purpose of cement lining steel pipe for the oil fields of West Texas. As water flooding expanded, corrosion caused by aggresive oil field brines became an ever more serious problem throughout the United States, and Permian Enterprises was there to meet the need.
The necessity to acidize injection wells caused Permian Enterprises to develop a special acid-resistant lining, FLUOROLINE, to meet this new need.
The advent of CO2 injection and other EOR programs has led to even more need for the corrosion protection of water and CO2 distribution lines throughout the oil fields. Again, Permian Enterprises has met the need with an economical and effective corrosion prevention system.
In 1987, Permian Enterprises saw a new need and built a wrapping plant for the exclusive application of POLYKEN YG III external taping system. In 1990, equipment was added, and Permian Enterprises became the first coating plant to apply POLYKEN's new SYNERGY heat-fused coating systems.
Since 1948, Permian Enterprises has cement lined in excess of 80 million feet of pipe, and in the past dozen years has lined in excess of 24 million feet. Now, with this impressive record of success, Permian Enterprises continues to meet pipeline and tubing corrosion prevention needs of the oil and gas industry.
