Highlights
- Cationic emulsion friction reducer
- Effective friction reduction in fresh water to high-salinity brines
- Non-viscosifying
- BTEX and aromatic-free
- Broad compatibility with fracturing additives
- Typical loading: 0.5 – 1.0 L/m3 (gpt)
It’s developed for use in low to high- salinity brine-based fluids. Its high tolerance to salinity, including divalent cations, make it a good product for use where water quality is an issue. ArkSlick FR-9104 inverts quickly and provides immediate and sustained friction reduction performance.
ArkSlick FR-series of products are evaluated under field-relevant Reynolds numbers, velocities and differential pressures. Evaluated through 1⁄2 inch tubing at 57 L/min (15 gpm), ArkSlick FR-9104 demonstrates superb performance at loadings as low as 0.5 L/m3 (gpt) in high salinity field brines.
