As the US appetite for oil and natural gas continues to increase, drilling operators face more and more demands to increase the efficiency and longevity of extraction operations performed via hydraulic fracturing. This situation drives the need for higher performing drilling and fracturing fluids that are capable of withstanding conditions in which traditional fluids cannot perform. Celeritas Chemicals of Southlake, TX is a company that specializes in providing high-performance specialty materials to drilling and fracturing fluid formulators to overcome the challenges posed by increasing industry demands.
Celeritas Chemicals’ new CELCHEM 31724-69 is a specialty grade of Carboxymethyl Hydroxypropyl Guar Gum (CMHPG) that provides unique benefits in fracturing applications with high performance requirements. CELCHEM 31724-69 exhibits good thermal stability and excellent carrying capacity to support sand or other proppants.
Benefits of CELCHEM 31724-69 CMHPG over regular Guar Gum and Hydroxypropyl Guar (HPG) when used in Fracturing Fluids include:
Fastest hydration that results in time savings
Slurry viscosity remains stable at higher temperatures
Compatible with methanol and carbon dioxide
Can be crosslinked in low or high pH
Dispersible in high temperature.
CELCHEM 31724-69 CMHPG is ideal for
On-the-fly blending operations due to fastest hydration rate
Oil bearing zones with low permeability
Use in sensitive geological formations due to lower impurities
Formulating super-clean' systems that reduce overall water loading
Easier clean-up
Formulations used in enhanced oil recovery and deep well completions
As an additional benefit, production and supply chain efficiencies allow Celeritas Chemicals to offer this product at significant cost savings.
