Less Downtime Downhole
Chelating agents are used in several operations in the drilling, production, and recovery of oil. They can prevent plugging caused by ferric iron (Fe+3) precipitation during stimulation and fracturing. VERSENE™ Chelating Agents are used for scale removal and prevention on well casings. And they can prevent scaling in boilers used for enhanced oil recovery steam flooding.
Oil Field applications for Dow Chelating Agents:
- Stimulation/Fracturing
- Acidizing systems
- Fracturing fluids
- Scale control in casings and formations
- Enhanced oil recovery (boiler water treatment)
