Hot Oiling Services

Paraffin Removal & Well Stimulation

High heat and pressure target paraffin and wax buildup at the source, designed to restore flow rates, reduce back pressure, and get your well producing again without extended downtime.

Pipeline Thawing & Maintenance

Frozen lines stop production. Our hot oilers deliver the sustained heat output to thaw pipelines quickly and safely, minimizing disruption during cold weather events and shoulder season operations.

Pipeline & Tank Cleaning

Break down sludge, scale, and hydrocarbon deposits in pipelines and tanks. Keep your system clean to reduce contamination risk and extend the service life of your infrastructure.

Frac Fluid Heating

Maintain optimal fluid temperatures for hydraulic fracturing programs. Our units provide the thermal output needed to support frac operations where temperature control directly affects results.

Facility Support & Maintenance

From process piping to production equipment, our hot oilers support planned and unplanned facility maintenance with operators experienced in working safely around active production sites.

Emergency Response

When production goes down unexpectedly, our 24/7 dispatch and strategically located fleet mean we can have a unit on-site fast, with backup capacity if the job demands it.
