J475 (125-185), J569 (175-250), J490 (250-325)
what do clay stabilizers do?
prevent swelling and migration of clays
Temporary clay stabilizers
L071, L068, M117
Perm clay stabilizers
L055, L042
surfactants
effect wettability, decrease surface tension
codes: F108, F112, B392
filter cake
development of polymer cake that reduces the volume of fluid being lost to formation
biocide that has no effect on enzymes
M275
problems with bacteria
change ph, increase hydration time, lower visc, consumes guar. scale formation
APB
acid producing bacteria-produce acid, corrode equip
GHB
General heterophobic bacteria-consumes organic carbon
SRB
Sulfate reducing bacteria-metabilises sulfate to produce h2s
