AGA-421

Gelling Agents (AGA®) — Breakers

AGA-421 is a water insoluble, encapsulated, oxidizing breaker mainly used to reduce the viscosity of fracturing fluid after proppant placement. AGA-421 comprises of white granules encapsulated by a heat stable polymer mainly used where downhole temperature is up-to 125-200oF (51-93oC). It is advisable to carry out pilot testing in the field for compatibility of AGA-421. Water based gelled fracturing fluids with guar and guar derivative polymers are used for viscosity development, leak off control and proppant transport during hydraulic fracturing operations. After proppant has been placed in the fracture, the crosslinked fluid needs to be degraded and get hydrocarbons to flow out of the fractured formation.
