Increase Yield & End Emulsification in Oil & Gas Operations
Redefining Pumping in Dirty Service Applications
In oil and gas operations, pumping systems are pushed to their limits every day. Abrasive sand, entrained gas, viscous crude, slops, tank bottoms, produced water, and aggressive chemicals create conditions that conventional pumps often struggle to survive.
Centrifugal, progressive cavity, screw, gear, and air diaphragm pumps frequently suffer from erosion, cavitation, plugging, unstable flow, and excessive wear—leading to chronic failures, emergency downtime, and costly rebuilds.
In this webinar, Discflo Pumps will explore why these failures occur and how disc pump technology offers a fundamentally different approach for handling harsh oil and gas fluids. Learn how Discflo’s patented boundary-layer pumping technology reduces emulsification, increases yield, minimizes wear, and handles multiphase fluids in dirty service applications.
We’ll also share real-world case studies showing how oil and gas operators reduced maintenance costs, eliminated downtime, improved product recovery, and extended maintenance intervals from months to years.

Why Discflo Pumps for Oil, Gas & Petrochemicals?
Discflo offers a range of disc pumps engineered for tough oil and gas applications. From pumping shear-sensitive oil to sludge and slurry transfer, Discflo pumps outlast and outperform the competition. Our innovative solutions deliver unparalleled reliability to help our customers optimize uptime, slash pumping costs, and keep profits flowing.
Non-Pulsating, Laminar Flow
Through viscous drag, fluid is pulled through the pump without impingement. The boundary layer attracts and drags successive layers of fluid molecules into layered flows of parallel streams. This is the simple principle of viscous drag, and, in the Discflo disc pump, it is a powerful dynamic force that “pulls” the fluid through the pump in a smooth, laminar, non-turbulent flow.
The non-impingement and laminar flow pumping of the disc pump is similar to flow through an ordinary pipe. The layers of fluid at the walls are stationary (relative to the rotating discs), creating a protective boundary layer. Viscous drag pulls layers into flows of smooth laminar streams.
About Discflo
For over 40 years, we have been pump innovators. We are dedicated to constantly improving and leading the way in pumping viscous materials. Our goal is for our customers to see a decrease in maintenance costs and downtime while pumping difficult materials. Our dedication to quality and precision when manufacturing our pumps is shown in the longevity of our pumps in the field. Less than 5% of our annual revenue comes from replacement part sales.
