Liquid build-up in the wellbore is one of the major causes of production decline in gas wells, in which case additional energy is needed to drain off the liquid to solve this problem.
Foaming agents offer a method to reduce the liquid density to make it easier to be lifted with the gas flow, unloading the accumulated liquid in gas wells.
Foamers work by reducing the density of the fluid downhole, allowing it to be removed naturally using the reservoir pressure flowing to the well.
Applications
- Improves and stabilizes hydrocarbon production
- Maximizes production without additional capital investment in the well
- Removes liquids from the well to reduce corrosion, scale and hydrate issues
