The Sapphire Rocking Cell laboratory instrument tests the effectiveness and efficiency of gas hydrate inhibitors. These prevent or limit the formation of gas hydrates.

Gas hydrates can form when natural gas is transported in the pipeline at low temperatures and high pressures, especially under deepwater conditions. For this purpose, the Sapphire Rocking Cell simulates two- and three-phase mixtures of natural gas, reservoir water and crude oil or condensates  at pressures of up to 350 bar (5,080 psi), as they typically form during pipeline transportation.

The Sapphire Rocking Cell is used to test thermodynamic inhibitors (THI) and low-dosage inhibitors (LDHI) such as kinetic gas hydrate inhibitors (KHI) and anti-agglomerants (AA). The runtime of a ball is measured in the fully visible test cell made of sapphire glass. This test setup is ideal for anti-agglomerants. It provides essential information on the dispersion capacity and effectiveness of the inhibitor.

As experts in Sapphire Rocking Cells, we offer four different sapphire rocking cell models to suit every need.
