Oil and gas

Dissolving and non-dissolving magnesium alloys for the oil and gas industry. At Luxfer MEL Technologies, we developed SoluMag® for the oil and gas industry based on the combination of strength and corrosion properties of our magnesium alloys.

Key features

Our SoluMag technology provides the platform with dissolving and non-dissolving alloys to support applications where strength properties and dissolution rates are vital.

SoluMag alloys are robust and can be used to produce components for downhole equipment (such as frac plugs) that have the strength required in demanding environments to perform for oil field operations.

SoluMag alloys are designed with controlled corrosion rates as well as tailored mechanical properties for strength and ductility requirements.
