Fiber extender EXTELINT®
TU 20.59.59-116-53501222-2017
EXTELINT® is an inert to formation rocks and formation fluids fiber extender, which is completely degradable and which allows to decrease significantly the viscosity and blocking ability of flow-diverting compositions.
It is meant for temporary blocking of high permeability intervals and fluid loss control in pay zones of the formation during both well drilling and repair and maintenance works. The product is degradable fibers, which provide temporary and reversible decreasing of permeability in fractured carbonate reservoirs that allows to control fluid loss in the bottom-hole formation zone. EXTELINT® is compatible with all types of brines used for the preparing of muds and blocking compositions, compatible with production and formation waters, acidic compositions and formation fluids.
EXTELINT® is organic acid polymer fibers.
Controlled degradation of EXTELINT® could take from 24 hours to 2-3 moths depending on the application temperatures.
Application area
- Flow diverting during acid stimulation of production wells with high water cut.
- Temporary blocking of high permeability intervals and fluid loss control in pay zones of the formation during both well drilling and repair and maintenance works.
- Conformance control with redistribution of filtration flows in injection wells with carbonate and sandstone reservoirs.
- Killing of the wells with Abnormally Low Formation Pressure (ALFP) and Abnormally High Formation Pressure (AHFP).
