FRICTION REDUCERS
FRICTION REDUCERS
Long Chain Mid/High Brine Anionic Friction Reducer
Product Description
PX-6030 is a long chain, anionic patent pending hybrid polyacrylamide friction reducer.
PX-6030 is designed to be used in a variety of waters from fresh water to mid/high TDS brines. It is easily dispersed, inverted, and hydrated into solution with a minimal amount of shear.
PX-6030 is very effective for use in make-up water with higher TDS blended or full produced waters.
Applications
PX-6030 should be added to the stimulation fluid prior to biocides and scale inhibitors using minimal shear.
PX-6030 can be used in a broad range of waters from fresh water to mid/high brines.

Advantages
• Superior proppant transport capabilities compared to other friction reducers
• Faster inversion rate than competitive friction reducers
• Compatible with a wide range of waters from fresh water to 175k TDS brines
• Very effective as a friction reducer and as a viscosifier, which helps in minimizing complexity and
cutting down on logistical costs
• Less damaging to the proppant pack compared to guar per third party regain conductivity testing
• Lower dosage requirements leading to decreased treatment cost
Usage
Dosage rates of PX-6030 vary by application but typical dosages are 0.5 to 1.0 gpt for friction reduction and >1.0 gpt for building viscosity, depending on water quality. Pilot testing is recommended to determine the dosage to achieve maximum efficiency.
