Abstract

Scale occurs due to the incompatibility of fluid mixtures, changes in pressure, temperature, and pH. It is generally formed around perforations, subsurface equipment such as tubing, and production equipment on the surface, such as wellheads and flowlines. Currently, there are several studies developing organic acids as a solution to scale problems. This research will use organic acids, specifically extracts from rambutan binjai peel, rambutan nona peel and mangosteen peel using concentrations of 5 ml, 10 ml, and 15 ml in 20 ml of distilled water and variations in soaking time of 20 and 60 minutes . The results of testing for tannin compounds in the extracts of rambutan binjai peel, rambutan nona, and mangosteen peel using UV-vis spectrophotometry found 20.91% in rambutan binjai peel, 21.14% in rambutan nona, and 21.58% in mangosteen peel. Based on the research that has been done, it is known that the organic acids of the extracts of rambutan binjai, rambutan nona, and mangosteen peel have an effect on scale reduction. The reduction efficiency is best in mangosteen peel with a concentration of 15 ml in 60 minutes, namely 0.132 grams with a reduction percentage of 6.6%.
