Case Study: Chemical Program Optimization
Background
For years, a large Canadian oil & gas producer struggled to get a clear picture of its chemical treatment programs. With multiple fields, dozens of vendors, and inconsistent reporting methods, the company could not determine whether its programs were on target — or even effective.
Production engineers were routinely forced to piece together spreadsheets, chase down conflicting vendor reports, and make decisions without trustworthy data. Treatment accuracy was inconsistent, overtreatment was common, and undertreatment created risk of downtime, failures, and costly asset damage.
The company needed a way to see the real story behind its chemical spend and treatment performance — without spending hours reconciling data.
The Challenge
The producer required a single platform that could:
- Automatically allocate production data to the right wells and treatment points for every vendor.
- Deliver one standardized view of production, chemical usage, KPIs, and field results.
- Provide analytics that pinpoint treatment inaccuracies, overruns, and under-dosing events.
- Help operators and engineers prioritize where action is needed, instead of digging through data.
- Shift from reactive, periodic reviews to ongoing, proactive optimization across all assets.
With drilling and acquisitions adding new wells monthly, engineers simply could not manually review every treatment program. The solution needed to intelligently flag issues, highlight optimization opportunities, and scale with growing data volume.
The Solution — Prodesy
Prodesy delivered a unified, intelligent chemical program management system:
- Automated Production Data Allocation
Embark’s production data engine ensured every vendor received accurate, site-specific production data — eliminating manual spreadsheets and alignment errors.

By comparing real-time production against actual chemical rates, Prodesy instantly highlighted over- and under-treatment so engineers could act before problems escalated.
- Integrated KPI & Lab Data
Dewaxing, bacteria, water analysis, corrosion KPIs, and more were unified into treatment dashboards — making it possible to tie treatment activity to actual field results for the first time.
Results
The impact was both immediate and significant:
- $660,000/month in Cost Variance Eliminated
Transparent reporting drove rapid correction of overtreatment and dosing errors.
- PPM Variance Reduced from Over 300 to Just 29
Treatment programs tightened dramatically once engineers had real-time accuracy metrics.
- Clear Compliance Alerts
Automated flagging notified users as soon as rates drifted off target — reducing downtime risk.
- KPI Map for Rapid Root-Cause Analysis
Engineers could visually track KPI changes and drill into treatment/production causes within seconds.
- Vendor & Product Benchmarking
For the first time, the team could compare vendor performance on PPM, cost/BOE, KPIs, and treatment accuracy.
Next Steps
With SCADA and telemetry data now feeding into the platform, the producer is moving toward real-time chemical program optimization. Engineers can now see actual vs. target treatment rates live — and receive notifications when performance starts to drift.
Prodesy is evolving into a system that not only reports treatment performance but actively helps manage and optimize chemical programs.
Summary
Prodesy gives producers the clarity they’ve been missing. It centralizes production, chemical, and KPI data into a single, trusted source — and turns it into actionable intelligence.
Operators gain:
- Accurate, consistent data allocation

Case Study: Capturing Sustainable Value Through Precision and Performance
Background
In Western Canada’s competitive production chemical market, price pressure and service consolidation have become the norm. Some vendors have sought to gain and protect their market share by adopting wholesale business practices including discounted chemical pricing and reduced field level technical services.
While these strategies might appear to cut short-term costs, they often compromise treatment accuracy, production reliability, and asset integrity — eroding the long-term value for producers.
In contrast, one vendor chose a different path based on culture. With a proven track record in paraffin management, demulsifier optimization, corrosion mitigation, and H₂S control, the company doubled down on performance-based value delivery.
Rather than reducing service, it focused on ensuring every treatment program met or exceeded defined operational targets, and that every customer could see the resulting performance in clear, data-driven terms.
The Challenge
The vendor recognized a growing industry misconception: that lower pricing automatically equates to improved economics. Field experience tends to tell a different story.
When site visits were reduced and programs were left unverified, chemical overtreatment increased, production efficiency declined, and equipment protection deteriorated. The resulting production losses and remedial costs far outweighed any savings from lower unit prices.
The challenge was how to quantify and communicate this reality to customers in an evidence-based way — demonstrating that adherence to service and treatment targets drives superior total value capture.
The company sought a system that could:
- Digitally connect field operations to performance data in real time.
- Integrate telemetry data to inform field operations and direct field services to the point of need.
- Prove treatment accuracy and asset protection performance through transparent metrics.
- Optimize service intensity, not by reducing it, but by aligning it with measurable outcomes.
The Solution – Prodesy
