Flowback Surfactants

Surfactants are an important group of chemicals that are used to enhance fluid recovery after fracturing. Selecting the right surfactant combination is key to optimizing fluid recovery, particularly when the product is designed to be multifunctional. We offer a wide range of flowback surfactant systems specifically designed to enhance treatment fluid recovery, prevent down-hole emulsions, and improve IP and long-term production after fracturing.

​

Formula-1 is a formulation of non-ionic surfactant and proprietary resins that is proven to assist with fluid recovery and prevent water blocks. This product is effective between ambient and 350°F.

​

We were able to develop a proprietary blend of surfactants that allows for superior flow-back recovery performance at loadings as low as 1 gpt. Formula-2 is optimized to work in freshwater, KCl water and TDS fluids.

​

Formula-3 is a multi-component surfactant formulation designed to minimize unwanted adsorption at non-essential interfaces and maximize penetration deeper into the formation, allowing optimal surfactant performance.

​

Formula-4 is an optimized flow-back surfactant solution specifically designed for use in medium to high TDS waters without reducing flow-back surfactant performance. Formula-4 also performs well in fresh water and is compatible with most fracturing fluid products.
