Our solutions to support the ongoing expansion of the Oil & Gas Industry
The Oil and Gas Industry is a lifeblood of the Australian economy. Widely renowned for its rich history of technical innovation and resourcefulness, today this exponentially growing industry employs over 19,000 people and accounts for over $30 Billion in annual exports. In November 2018, Australia took over from Qatar to become the largest exporter of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) in the world.
While oil production has declined in recent years, new discoveries of natural gas reserves and innovative projects in floating LNG, hydraulic fracturing and advanced offshore geotechnical engineering will ensure the continued growth of this important industry as the world makes the transition to cleaner forms of energy.
To guarantee the sustainability of the industry and to strengthen Australia’s position as a world leader in gas production, it is essential that the machinery at our Oil and Gas facilities are operating at maximum capacity and longevity.
This is why Solidus Industries are the Oceania distributor for ZOK International. Their flagship product is ZOK 27, an all in one water based gas turbine compressor cleaner and corrosion inhibitor that is the product of choice for the Oil and Gas industry.
Equally renowned for its powerful, corrosion inhibiting formulation, Solidus Industries’ multi purpose industrial cleaner Zi-400 HD is highly effective in removing residual build-up on heat exchangers, in fuel pipelines and is also an internationally renowned oil spill dispersant.

Sustainability & Profitability in the Oil & Gas Industry
Natural gas is a vital part of Australia’s economy. Not only does this clean natural resource light up our electricity grid, it is integral to a wide range of industries including transportation, petrochemicals, plastics manufacturing, mineral processing and gas retailing to households and businesses.
Following extraction at an offshore or onshore rig, the first port of call in any natural gas or LNG production chain is the natural gas processing plant. The sustained viability of these facilities is based on three key factors:
- Maximising the output of their gas turbine compressors in the purification stages;
- Ensuring optimal thermal efficiency of heat exchangers in their processing trains, particularly when cryogenically cooling the gas to the -162C temperature required for LNG production;
- Optimising the flowrates within gas pipelines to reduce the energy output required by gas turbine compressors to move gas down the pipes.
Solidus Industries provide revolutionary cleaning products to support the maximum efficiency, output and longevity of LNG and natural gas processing facilities.
Gas Turbine Compressor Cleaner
Solidus Industries are the Oceania distributor of ZOK 27, a powerful water based gas turbine compressor cleaner and corrosion inhibitor.
We recommend developing a custom washing schedule of on-line and off-line washes with ZOK 27 to guarantee the maximum efficiency and durability of your gas turbine compressors.
The product of choice for the Oil and Gas industry, ZOK 27 is officially certified by Siemens, General Electric, Rolls-Royce, Mitsubishi, Pratt & Whitney, Solar Turbines and Kawasaki.
Heat Exchanger Cleaning Products for the Oil and Gas Industry
Heat exchangers play a vital role in the Oil and Gas production chain, from extraction, to oil refining, gas processing, liquefaction, compression, recompression and regasification.
During operation, it is natural for heat exchangers to gradually build up dust and other contaminants on their exterior casing. These contaminants create an unwanted insulation layer on the heat exchanger, effectively reducing its thermal efficiency.
If the heat exchangers at an oil or gas processing facility aren’t running at maximum efficiency, it is inevitable that the compressors will need to work harder and burn more fuel to produce the same power output. This loss of efficiency can have a substantial impact. Not only does burning more fuel increase costs of production, it also increases the environmental footprint of the operation.
Our safe, reliable and powerful Zi-400 HD Industrial cleaner is the perfect cleaning product for heat exchangers. Not only is it highly effective at removing residual build-ups, it is also scientifically proven to inhibit corrosion. This is particularly important when cleaning the aluminium fins used in many heat exchangers, since aluminium is highly reactive and susceptible to corrosion. Applied with Solidus Industries’ Apollo foaming units, protecting the lifespan of your heat exchanger while guaranteeing optimal thermal efficiency has never been easier.
Gas Pipeline Flushing Solutions
When contaminants build up on the inside wall of a gas pipe, the volume and velocity of the gas being pumped through it is reduced.
Zi-400 HD Industrial is internationally renowned as a highly effective solution for flushing gas pipelines, leading to greater efficiency, production and profitability.
General Plant & Equipment Cleaning Products for the Oil & Gas Industry
Since many LNG and natural gas processing plants are by the ocean, the risk of corrosion of plant and equipment such as trucks, utility vehicles, pressure vessels (tanks), the walls of the facility and framework of the plant is greatly increased. Build-ups of salt, dust, dirt and bird poo are all highly corrosive and also impact on the professional impression of the facility from an aesthetic perspective.
Oil refineries have the added challenge of addressing the build up of fumes in and around the facility, which are also highly corrosive.
Implementing a regular cleaning schedule with our multi-purpose cleaner Zi-400 HD Industrial and Solidus Industries Wash Kits will prevent corrosion of plant and equipment, extend the life of your paint work and maximise the longevity of your valuable assets.
Oil Spill Dispersant for Offshore Oil Spills
When contaminants build up on the inside wall of a gas pipe, the volume and velocity of the gas being pumped through it is reduced.
Zi-400 HD Industrial is internationally renowned as a highly effective solution for flushing gas pipelines, leading to greater efficiency, production and profitability.
