Nissan Chemical America Corporation's nanoActiv® Enhanced Flowback Technology increases initial oil and gas production
PASADENA, Texas, Oct. 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Nissan Chemical America Corporation (NCA) introduces Enhanced Flowback Technology (EFT) to complement its existing line of nanoActiv(®) products. nanoActiv(®) EFT is a nanoparticle micellar dispersion, employing a synergistic combination of a soybean extract solvent, a blend of surfactants and NCA's proprietary, patent-pending surface-modified silicon dioxide nanoparticles.
"One of the big challenges with hydraulic fracturing is that fracturing fluid filtrate can get trapped into the pore spaces in unconventional reservoirs causing a decrease in hydrocarbon mobility," explains NCA President, William L. Smith.
nanoActiv(®) EFT improves stimulation fluid interaction near the created and propped fracture faces and throughout the entire propped fracture network--increasing initial oil and gas production. It also delivers the unique advantages of fragmentation and reduction in interfacial tension.
"The presence of Nissan Chemical's supercharged nanoparticles in nanoActiv(®) EFT significantly increases the efficiency of the technology by contacting more surface area with a Brownian-motion, diffusion-driven mechanism known as disjoining pressure," says NCA Senior Petroleum Engineer, Yusra Ahmad.
Nissan Chemical's nanoActiv(®) EFT joins the existing nanoActiv(®) product line to deliver significantly more efficient and complete flowback of the fracturing fluids in a shorter period of time. nanoActiv® products demonstrate Nissan Chemical's commitment to supplying productive and innovative treatment fluids to the oil and gas industry.
About nanoActiv(®)(
)nanoActiv(®) solutions are high-efficiency intervention additives and methods--maximizing hydrocarbon production rates. The presence of patent-pending, surface-modified silicon dioxide nanoparticles means nanoActiv(®) solutions go further, work faster, and are effective longer, enabling higher volume hydrocarbon recovery.
