In July 2018 an electrochlorination unit for the offshore field owned by LUKOIL-Nizhnevolzhskneft was successfully delivered to protect offshore structures from fouling by marine organisms.
The electrochlorination unit has unique characteristics that allow the production of sodium hypochlorite directly in the Caspian Sea under the conditions of low sea water salinity, with no need to add salt. Thus far the process is not available to many manufacturers of similar equipment.
