Brenntag Oil & Gas Europe, one of the world’s leading suppliers in pipeline cleaning services, recently managed to open an offshore 7.3 km, 6 5/8” crude trunk line with N-SPEC 50 dispersant/solvent. The line, which belongs to Petromar, Romania’s offshore petroleum exploration company, had been obstructed for six years and previous efforts to open it had failed.
