Flatirons Chemicals tested their innovative Safe Acid compared to standard 15% HCl in hydraulic fracturing. The results speak for themselves—Safe Acid demonstrated four times the depth of wormhole penetration and maintained 92% of wireline tensile strength, enhancing operational efficiency and reducing costs.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
Hydraulic fracturing operations needed a solution that could improve wormhole propagation and reduce the impact of acid on wireline cables. Standard HCl proved effective but came with significant limitations related to corrosion and inefficiencies in the process.
KEY METRICS
-
4x Greater Wormhole Penetration than standard HCl
-
92% Tensile Strength Retained after exposure at 250°F
-
Significant Cost Savings due to reduced corrosion and enhanced operational efficiency
SOLUTION OVERVIEW
Flatirons Chemicals developed Safe Acid to address these challenges. In controlled testing, Safe Acid demonstrated superior wormhole propagation and corrosion inhibition while preserving wireline tensile strength. The unique formulation of Safe Acid offers a delayed action that allows for deeper penetration and enhanced efficiency.
