MYKROTEC®
MYKROTEC® additive is a single-stage, 3-in-1 chemical additive for cleaning wells during cementing operations. It acts with high effectiveness by removing the scum created by oil-based fluids, leaving the formation moistened with water to achieve a high cement adhesion between the casing and the formation.
It combines the dissolution of powerful hydrocarbon solvents with the ability to wet in water using optimized surfactants, delivering a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) and creating a double emulsion.
The MYKROTEC® product meets all the requirements of a wash line in a single spacer. This efficient combination of powerful solvents, surfactants, and wetting agents not only provides excellent surface cleaning, but also does so with a good to very good profile. When used in well cleaning operations, its dual emulsion performs the task of diluting, dissolving, and dispersing oil-based/synthetic residues, while leaving tubular and metal surfaces wetted with water.
APPLICATION
The combined action of solvents and surfactants with the double emulsion of MYKROTEC® provides efficient cleaning of solids and drilling fluid residues during cementing operations leaving the entire tubular and formation in a water-wet state, without the need to add an additional surfactant batch.
El aditivo MYKROTEC® It can be mixed with freshwater, seawater, and high-density brines. Gentle agitation is required before pumping. The product can also be incorporated into a high-viscosity slurry to aid in the removal of heavy solids before pumping the main cleaning slurry or as an aid in the moving train.
ADVANTAGE
- Improves Cement Adhesion by wetting the formation and casing pipe with water.
- Low Concentration - Only one product is used, and the concentration is lower than other surfactants to achieve the same job.
- Reduced Pill Volume.
RECOMMENDED TREATMENT
The MYKROTEC® additive is primarily designed to remove scum from oil- or synthetic-base fluids and leave the casing and formation water-wet during cementing operations in oil and gas wells. LOCIMAT recommends concentrations of 5–20% v/v in the main cleaning batch.
TOXICITY AND HANDLING
Handle as an industrial chemical, wear protective equipment and observe precautions described in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
PACKAGING AND STORAGE
- The MYKROTEC® additive is packaged in 208-liter drums.
