MICROWAX S solid inhibitor contains a proprietary blend of uniquely formulated aromatic/aliphatic solvents. It is a paraffin and asphaltene solvent, dispersant, demulsifier and sludge preventer.
MICROWAX S is available in encapsulated spheres (sand type). These solid products are specially formulated to provide long term, uniform inhibitor feed back for more effective scale control. Over 60% of the solid applied MICROWAX S will be released as active residual inhibitor to react and prevent the organic depositions progressively and in the long term.
MICROWAX S can be applied with the support agent for Frac jobs or apply in the rathole for producing wells. The smallest particle presentation (120 mesh) can be applied together with the proppant agent, and is easily incorporated in fracturing treatments, where it can be incorporated at the blender tub or hopper.
For production the material can be applied with direct injection in slurry version. The microencapsulated inhibitor for slurry version has been designed with particles that facilitate its settling once applied downhole, where it allows long-term protection of production.
The solid dry chemical is a significant cost advantage because the product does not require any freeze protection chemicals or diluents, like water, and can be packaged in 10 Kg bags which are easy to handle.
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES:
• Solid product can be used for fracturing applications, and also for long-term production protection.
• Longer more uniform inhibitor feed back.
• Possibility of varying the particle size according to each application and specific requirement.
• Encapsulation minimizes adsorption of inhibitor on formation and optimizes addition to produced hydrocarbons.
• Performs well in fresh water, seawater, brine and hydrocarbons.
• Easy handling, storage and lower shipping cost.
• Easy to clean; (solid), no liquid spill.
• Lower comparative cost with respect to liquid products.
• Can be applied with other encapsulated solid inhibitors: scale, corrosion, sulfide inhibitors, etc.
Request Technical-Commercial assistance, and availability of TDS and SDS sheets.
• Other active options depending on the characteristics of the crude oil to be treated, and the required action (inhibition, suspension, demulsifier, flow improver)
