Common questions
Oilfield, in seven questions.
01 Is Yeast Beast Oilfield approved by Aramco or ADNOC?
Yeast Beast is produced by NANO4YOU GmbH (Bexbach, Germany) under ISO 9001. Formal approval listings on NOC vendor lists (Saudi Aramco, ADNOC, Kuwait Oil Company, Qatar Petroleum) are pending. We currently ship to independent oilfield service contractors who supply these operators.
For direct NOC qualification, please get in touch via the contact form, we will share the technical dossier and arrange a qualification dialogue.
02 Will it damage crude oil tank linings?
Standard epoxy phenolic and zinc-silicate linings tolerate Yeast Beast Oilfield at recommended dilutions (1:5 to 1:30). For old or proprietary linings, always run a 24-hour spot test before full-tank application.
The pH of 10.5 to 11.5 is below the threshold that triggers concern for most lining systems, but lining age and surface preparation history affect tolerance.
03 Can it be used as a pigging fluid?
Yes, as a chemical pre-treatment ahead of mechanical pigging. Typical workflow: flood the line with 1:10 dilution, soak 4 to 12 hours, then run brush or scraper pigs to remove the loosened residue.
For wax or asphaltene-heavy lines, combine with hot water flushing at 40 to 60 °C. For pure hydrate or scale problems, this is not the right chemistry.
04 What is the temperature stability?
Working temperature range is 20 to 60 °C, with optimum performance at 40 to 50 °C. The concentrate is stable in storage between 5 and 40 °C. Avoid freezing (the active matrix loses efficacy below 5 °C and recovers only partially after thawing).
For desert storage, recommend shaded covered storage to keep IBCs below 40 °C ambient.
05 What customs documentation comes with shipment to MENA?
Standard export package includes: Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin (Made in Germany), Safety Data Sheet in English and Arabic on request, technical data sheet. For SASO (Saudi Arabia) or ESMA (UAE) we provide product registration support documents.
HS code 3402.90 (cleaning preparations). Goods are not classified as dangerous goods under ADR/IMDG in the concentrate-adjusted form.
06 Minimum order quantity for international shipping?
Sample: 5 liters, product free, shipping at cost.
Trial order: 25 to 200 liters.
Standard production order: 1,000 L IBC. For sea freight, we typically combine 4 IBCs per 20-foot container for optimal logistics.
Larger bulk orders (full container load): contact us for FCL pricing.
07 Lead time from order to delivery in GCC?
Standard lead time: 2 to 4 weeks from order confirmation, depending on production scheduling and chosen freight route.
Sea freight Bexbach to Jebel Ali or Dammam: typically 21 to 28 days. Expedited road-and-sea via Trieste or Salerno: 14 to 18 days at premium cost.
