AS-10 Antisludging Agent


AS-10 antisludging agent was developed to help prevent HCI acid-induced sludge from forming. AS-10 agent works by preventing the flocculation of asphaltene particles when contacted by HCl acid thus preventing the separation of asphaltene sludge from the crude oil. AS-10 agent can act as a nonemulsifier to help prevent some acid-oil emulsions and also improve the performance of other nonemulsifiers present. Applications AS-10 anti-sludging agent is used in HCl-acid systems to help prevent HCl-acid-induced asphaltene sludging. While AS-10 anti-sludging agent will work effectively with many crude oils, testing will be required to determine whether it will be the best anti-sludging agent to for each application. AS-10 agent is the preferred antisludging agent in the Carbonate Completion acid system. Compatability AS-10 antisludging agent is compatible with HAI-GE corrosion inhibitor and conventional inhibitors. In some cases, combinations of AS-10 agent and either AS-5 or AS-9 antisludging agent will provide improved performance over a single antisludging agent. Because AS-10 agent is anionic, it should not be used in fluids that contain cationic chemicals unless previous testing has shown this combination of chemicals to be compatible.
