Ausfractrol 100

Clay Stabilizer

Description

AUSFRACTROL 100 is a highly concentrated liquid clay control additive (non-surface active organic salts in an aqueous solution) for use in oilfield applications. Unlike many other similar products, AUSFRACTROL 100 has very low toxicity and contains no surfactants.

Usage

AUSFRACTROL 100 can be used in any application where dry potassium chloride would be applied. If used in cementing, AUSFRACTROL 100 will still stabilize clays but will not accelerate slurry setting. AUSFRACTROL 100 is particularly useful where shipping expense is a significant cost factor. Note that AUSFRACTROL 100 is designed only as a potassium chloride substitute or “temporary” clay stabilizer, and should not be used without a permanent clay stabilizer in highly water-sensitive formations where permanent stabilizers are ordinarily required. AUSFRACTROL 100 has no known incompatibilities with common oilfield chemicals.

Application

Recommended dosage levels range from 1.0 – 2.0 gal. (3.785lt – 7.570lt) of AUSFRACTROL 100 per 1000 gal. (3875lt) of base fluid to give the equivalent clay stabilization of 2% dry potassium chloride in most formations. Higher loadings, of up to 10 gal. (38.75lt) of AUSFRACTROL 100 or more, may be used if clay sensitivity is thought to be a source of formation damage. Testing is strongly recommended to determine the optimum load rates for each particular use.
