Stimulation chemicals that mitigate scale to maintain well productivity, prevent damage to equipment, and ensure the long-term success of the well.
Talk to an ExpertIn many reservoirs, formation water contains dissolved minerals such as calcium carbonate (CaCO3), strontium sulfate (SrSO4), and barium sulfate (BaSO4). These minerals can interact with the treatment fluids to produce carbonate and sulfate scales. Scale can collect on the wellbore and production equipment, causing blockages and reduced operational efficiency.
Our scale management portfolio of inhibitors is engineered to prevent scale formation and help improve long-term oil production in various reservoir conditions, including sandstone, carbonate, tight-gas, and shale. Our in-house chemistry advancements and testing capabilities provide effective scale management to maintain well productivity, prevent damage to equipment, and ensure the well's long-term success.
Scale Inhibitors
The Scalechek® scale prevention service effectively inhibits the formation of sulfate-based and carbonate-based scales. In addition to providing excellent control of barite scales in the presence of iron, it performs effectively at low concentrations, in high salt concentrations, in cold weather, and at high temperatures.
Discover ScalechekEffective scale inhibitors prevent the formation of mineral deposits in the wellbore and on production equipment, significantly improving production rates. Halliburton's scale inhibitors are compatible with most brines and common stimulation fluids, including friction reducers and borate-crosslinked fracturing fluids. The inhibitor performance is analyzed by our experts to determine the most efficient service that will provide long-term protection.
Our scale inhibitors are compatible with most brines and common stimulation fluids, including friction reducers and borate-crosslinked fracturing fluids. To help determine inhibitor effectiveness and performance, our experts analyze produced brine to determine the amount of an inhibitor present. This can help predict when a new scale inhibitor squeeze is needed to maintain long-term protection.
Bacteria Control
Halliburton's technical experts can help determine the right combination of biocides needed to effectively kill and control bacteria from the start of the frac through production. The Multi-Cide® biocide service helps prevent well souring and contamination by eliminating bacteria for safe, cost-effective, and high-performance fracture stimulation.
