Some of the Gulf of Suez Oil Fields (July and October) have been water - flooded with Gulf seawaterCompatibility tests have indicated probable deposition of scale on surface and subsurface production equipmentThis case history outlines the physical and theoretical prediction for down - hole scale deposition in Gulf of Suez OIL wellsIt also describes the control of scale inhibition programs which carried out to control down - hole scale deposition by using the formation squeeze techniqueScale deposition on surface and subsurface oil and gas production equipment has been recognized to be a major operational problemScale contributes to equipment wear and corrosion and flow restriction , thus resulting in a decrease in oil and gas productionExperience in the oil industry has indicated that many oil wells have suffered flow restriction because of scale deposition within the oil / gas - producing formation matrix and the down - hole equipment , as well as scale deposits in the surface production equipment and , generally in primary , secondary , and tertiary oil
