MercapX™ — advanced chemistry for H2S & mercaptan removal
Powerful sulfur treatment chemistry for crude oil — engineered to reduce H2S and mercaptans while preserving product integrity.
Why MercapX™?
A next-generation scavenger designed to outperform the rest
Safer, smarter, and more effective under pressure.
Dual Action Formula
Reduces H2S and mercaptans (C1–C6) by 70–90%
Oil-Soluble Advantage
Outperforms water-based scavengers by deeply penetrating crude oil.
Corrosion & Scale Control
Protects your infrastructure with proprietary additives.
Not Speciation Dependent
Works across all mercaptan types — no pre-analysis required.
The key benefits of MercapX™
From corrosion prevention to odor control
Every benefit is built to improve safety, compliance, and product quality.
- 70–90% mercaptan reduction
- Effective across API gravity spectrum
- Rapid H2S neutralization
- Inline or batch dosing compatible
- Targeted performance with every drop
How it works
Unlike conventional scavengers, MercapX™ maintains high performance even under pressure and temperature fluctuations. Its oil-soluble base delivers complete dispersion and contact, converting H2S into inert byproducts while deeply reducing volatile mercaptans.
Application areas
Built for field versatility
Upstream wellhead injection
Treat sour crude at the source by neutralizing H2S and mercaptans before they enter the gathering system — improving safety and reducing corrosion risk.
Midstream stabilization units
Enhance product quality and meet sulfur specs during midstream processing with reliable scavenging performance across variable flow rates.
Custody transfer prep
Ensure compliance with odor and sulfur content standards before transferring product to downstream buyers or terminals.
Final polishing
Use as a finishing step to eliminate residual sulfur compounds from sweetened or blended crudes before storage or sale.
Product variants
Customized formulations for different crude profiles
Ensuring precision dosing and maximum performance.
MercapX™ Core Blend is the standard formulation designed for broad-spectrum use across various crude types. It delivers reliable H2S and mercaptan reduction without requiring speciation data, making it ideal for routine treatment in upstream and midstream systems where conditions may fluctuate.
Vasi-8002 is optimized for light crudes and high-RVP condensates. With its low viscosity and rapid-reacting chemistry, it blends seamlessly into volatile streams and delivers fast, effective scavenging without phase separation — ideal for wellhead and stabilization applications.
Vasi-7001 targets heavy crude oils with complex sulfur profiles. Formulated for deeper penetration and longer contact time, it excels at treating heavier mercaptan chains and high-sulfur loads, making it a strong choice for tough applications and refinery prep.
