Description
GICA-S200D is a dry organic chelating agent with a wide-ranging ability to sequester various polyvalent cations.
GICA-S200D prevents formation damage caused by ferric iron precipitation during stimulation and fracturing.
Physical Properties
- Appearance ..................................... White powder
- Solubility ......... Soluble in water, acid, and alcohols
- pH (1% aqueous) ........................................... > 9.0
Applications
GICA-S200D is used in the oilfield industry for various applications. It is used to remove or prevent the precipitation of the iron and other metals from the treatment fluid by chelation and stabilization of the system. During the acid treatment, various compounds may be dissolved in the treatment fluid. As the acid reacts and the pH increases, reaction products may precipitate as a gelatinous or solid insoluble mass. If this occurs within the formation matrix, it is almost impossible to remove and permanent permeability damage may occur.
GICA-S200D chelating agent prevents precipitation by keeping ions in a soluble form until the treatment fluid can flow back from the formation during cleanup.
