Ensuring the operational readiness and efficiency of offshore assets is crucial in the demanding marine environment. HiFraser’s collaboration with Envirofluid and EVAC, using Triple7 EnviroScale, has demonstrated a transformative impact on maintaining vacuum-assisted sewage systems.
This case study explores how this innovative, eco-friendly product has significantly improved performance and reduced downtime for a large offshore asset in Australia.
Here’s the story…
Marine and offshore environments pose continuous operational challenges, leading to frequent maintenance needs and increased costs. Traditional cleaning methods, relying on hazardous chemicals, present risks to both personnel and the environment. The necessity for a safer, more effective cleaning solution was clear, and Triple7 EnviroScale provided the answer.
“Traditional maintenance methods often struggle with efficiency and environmental compliance, particularly in the demanding offshore environment. We needed a solution that could meet our operational needs while ensuring safety and sustainability,”

Approach: The Solution
Envirofluid’s Triple7 EnviroScale is engineered for marine and offshore applications, offering a non-toxic, environmentally friendly solution that effectively removes limescale and calcium deposits from pipes and systems without damaging critical components.
In collaboration with EVAC, a global leader in cleantech solutions for marine, offshore and building industries, HiFraser conducted an in situ chemical clean using Triple7 EnviroScale for a large offshore asset in Australia. Here’s a detailed look at this approach:
Supplies and Equipment
Triple7 EnviroScale: A powerful descaler known for its capacity to remove limescale and calcium deposits without damaging metal surfaces, pipes, or seals.
Execution
- Assessment: Conducted an initial evaluation of the vacuum-assisted sewage system to identify areas prone to blockages.
- Administration: Injected Triple7 EnviroScale into these systems, effectively breaking down and removing the deposits.
- Maintenance: Performed regular checks and secondary applications to ensure the system remained clean and efficient, significantly reducing blockages and operational interruptions.
“HiFraser and the in situ chemical clean services provided by them have been instrumental in re-instating the health of our asset’s vacuum pipe network. The plant performance has improved significantly, and we have seen no outages of the vacuum plant ever since the clean was conducted.”

Transformative Impact
- Efficiency: Deploying Triple7 EnviroScale resulted in substantial improvements in system performance, reducing blockages and ensuring uninterrupted operation of the sewage system.
- Cost-Effective: The approach was more economical compared to traditional methods, aligning well with budget constraints.
- Time-Saving: The solution minimised downtime, ensuring that the system stayed operational without unscheduled maintenance halts.
- Environmental Compliance: Being non-toxic and non-hazardous, Triple7 EnviroScale met rigorous environmental standards, supporting sustainability goals.
