Feature And Benefits
BIOCIDE 65 is easy to utilize and effective at controlling slime and corrosion caused by micro–organisms in drilling, completion, workover and packer fluids. BIOCIDE 65 is effective against aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. BIOCIDE 65 does not have any affinity for solids; therefore no replenishment is required to offset losses through solids removal equipment.
Product Function
BIOCIDE 65 is used as antibacterial, algaecide, fungicide, deodorizing and antistatic agent. It is compatible with cationics, nonionics and amphoterics at proper pH range as well as alkaline and inorganic acids and most miner and organic acids. BIOCIDE 65 will protect polymers, which are susceptible to bacterial degradation. BIOCIDE 65 may also be utilized to control bacteria in injection waters.
Recommended treatment
The normal initial treatment for circulating fluids is 0.1–0.3% where an alkaline pH range is being maintained. Higher dosage rates will be required at neutral pH ranges and where no further circulation takes place i.e. packer fluids. Daily maintenance of 10% of initial treatment is recommended for circulating fluids.
