SAS Filtercake Removal West Africa Lab Study

SAS Breaker Filtercake Removal Products are suitable for oil based mud (OBM) based on synthetics, oil and esters containing calcium carbonate. The unique SAS products are robust and work with any OBM or brine type and quickly solubilize the oil from the drilling mud – no need for bespoke formulation.

A great example of the SAS Breaker 162SC at work comes from a Lab Study (which can be downloaded here) we done for one of our customers in West Africa. In the picture on the left is the untreated OBM cake. In this case we treated the filtercake with a combination of SAS Breaker 162SC and SAS Breaker F (formic acid generating). Both products were used at 10% concentration.

Perfectly solubilised in a monovalent brine and using a 24-hour soak at 200F (93C) the SAS Breaker products achieved almost complete removal.

We can do this for you on your producing or injector wells. We keep costs down and get production up! So why not contact us today to find out more!
