The Water Foam W50 are primarily used to remove water from gas wells and increase gas production. The foaming action decreases the hydrostatic back-pressure which increases gas production that further enhances the foaming action until the well unloads. The Water Foam W50 can be used to increase the swabbing efficiency and life of swab cups. The extremely slick coating along with the foaming action increases efficiency and life of the swab cups and allows the well to flow easier. The perforations are often cleaned as a result of the surfactants and swabbing action.
The Water Foam W50 can be used to remove fluid from gas-condensate wells and flowing oil wells. For gas-condensate wells with more than 75% condensate, it is recommended to use Oil Foam W10 Sticks. The Water Foam W50 are used in water injection wells in combination with Scale Breaker Sticks to help reduce injection pressures. Surfactants contained in the Water Foam W50 can help remove oil coating on scale. This helps the Scale Breaker Sticks react with the exposed scale.
This stick is equivalent to the Texas Star (SI-16).
