Anti Sludge AS 180

Product code RXSOL-81-2064-210

Prevents sludge formation in crude oil mixtures during acidic treatment thereby increasing drilling operation efficiency and output.

Description
RXSOL Anti Sludge AS 180 is a high-performance anionic surfactant package specifically formulated to prevent the formation of asphaltic sludge during hydrochloric acid (HCl) stimulation treatments. The product stabilizes crude oil asphaltenes, minimizes sludge precipitation, and improves acid penetration into the formation.
 
By preventing acid/crude incompatibility, the additive enhances treatment efficiency, reduces formation damage, and promotes rapid flowback after acidizing operations.
Application
