TPS-02 is a proprietary blend of polymeric surfactants in solvents, effective as a surfactant / demulsifier for flow improvement of gas-liquid phase during the tubing of water-oil production wells. TPS-02 is recommended for use in combination with a paraffin inhibitor for increasing the lifting efficiency of gaslift production wells.
Typical Properties
Appearance at 25oC……………………… Clear yellow liquid
Density at 25oC, g/cm3 ……………………0.86 – 0.98
Viscosity at 25oC, mm2/s (stoke)…………38 - 85
Flash point ………………………………… > 60oC
Pour point, oC ………………………………< -20oC
Solubility:- Difficult to mix with water.
- Soluble in most hydrocarbon solvents.
Uses
TPS-02 is recommended for continuous downhole injection at a rate of 50 to 200 ppm in combination with a paraffin inhibitor for increasing the lifting efficiency of gaslift production wells. Optimum field dosage is depending on the lifting characteristics of gaslift production well, crude oil emulsion, water content and etc. The dosing rate of the complex gaslift chemical (including of TPS-02 and a paraffin inhibitor) must be determined by field testing in gaslift production wells.
Storage and handling
Keep away from heat, sparks and open flame. Ventilate well, avoid breathing vapors. Use approved respirator if air contamination is above accepted level. Avoid spilling, skin and eye contact. Bulk deliveries should be stored in carbon steel tanks in conditions that avoid extremes of temperatures.
