Drag Reducing Agents (DRA) or Drag Reducers (DR)
Drag Reducing Agents (DRA) or Drag Reducers (DR) are chemical agents used to reduce frictional pressure loss caused by turbulence in pipelines.
The benefits of DRA include: increased pipeline throughput, bypass of Main Oil Line pump stations, reduction of pipeline operating pressure whilst maintaining throughput, decrease in transportation time and provide a substantial reduction in energy consumption and costs.
