Paraffin Treatment Additives

Wells which have aged and been producing for many years tend to collect wax or paraffin deposits which clog up the wells…acid doesn’t touch it, but specialized paraffin dissolvers do! These are essential to use in waxy ‘pay-zones’.

Aquative-310®

Paraffin dispersant

Description

Aquative-310 asphaltene dispersant is a liquid, organic-based chemical. Its formulation was specially designed to treat troublesome asphaltic deposits. It is a mixture of aromatic solvents combined with a special surface-active agent.

Application

The surface-active chemicals in this product increase the surface tension of the crude oil above the level at which asphaltene precipitation occurs. The aromatic hydrocarbon components adsorb to the asphaltene and maintain the dispersion of the finely divided asphaltene particles. The asphaltene particles are peptized by this adsorption process forming a highly stable colloidal solution.

Features and Benefits
  • Removes asphaltene deposits
  • Inhibits asphaltene deposition
  • Requires minimal storage and pumping
  • Product remains fluid in winter months

Aquative-712®

Surfactant, silt suspender for acidizing

Description

Aquative-712 is concentrated aqueous solution of non-ionic surfactants specifically formulated to improve the ability of acidizing fluids to disperse and suspend fines and silts during acidizing operations.

Application

Aquative-712 when added to the acidizing fluid prior to application will effectively assist in wetting any released fines and silts and suspending them in the acidizing fluid so that they may be returned to the surface after treatment.

Features and Benefits
  • It will function effectively in either live or spent acidizing fluids
  • Compatible with a wide range of other additives
  • Effective in helping to remove drilling fluid residues during cleaning operations utilizing mud acid systems
  • Water soluble and can be conveniently added directly to the acid or water tanks

Aquative-711®

Asphaltene dissolvant and dispersant

Description

Aquative-711 is a mixture of surfactants specially formulated to reduce the surface tension, inter-facial tension, and alter the wettability. Combined with dispersant, it increases and sustain the production over time.

Application

Aquative-711 can alter the wettability of the reservoir and effective acidizing additive to disperse asphaltene and paraffin. It also can be used in hot oil (< 80°C) treatment.

Features and Benefits
  • Fracturing fluid to reduce the interfacial tension, reduce fluid retention and minimize the emulsion
  • Acid cleaning near the wellbore damage and penetration
  • Asphaltene/paraffin dispersion in hot oil treatment
  • Secondary stimulation, refracturing

AquaDis-120®

Organic, non-aromatic solvent and cleaner

Description

AquaDis-120 is an organic, non-aromatic solvent and cleaner. It has excellent solvency property for various heavy-duty cleaning applications as direct replacement for most petroleum-derived solvents & cleaners, and plant-based materials like d-Limonene.

Application

AquaDis-120 is low VOC, biodegradable, noncarcinogenic solvent and cleaner. It is an excellent alternative to white spirits, NMP (N-methylpyrrolidone), Glycol Ethers, and d-Limonene. It can be used in the formulations of hand cleaners, degreasers, paint strippers, graffiti removal systems, and ink stain cleaner/removal.

Features and Benefits
  • Entirely derived from plant oil
  • It has excellent cleaning and degreasing properties
  • It is a safe replacement for white spirits,NMP (N-methylpyrrolidone) or Glycol Ethers which are normally in the above formulations
  • It is more effective than d-Limonene because of its higher solvency and degreasing properties
  • Non-hazardous, non-toxic, non-carcinogenic, and does not produce hazardous residues
  • It is biodegradable, environment-friendly, and its manufacture conforms to the Green Chemistry principles
