HOSTADRILL FM 15474

HOSTADRILL FM 15474 is a sulfonated alkane-based foaming agent in water used as a surfactant in various sectors of the chemical industry. In the Oil & Gas industry, it is used as a foaming agent for water-based drilling fluids. The foam generated allows a reduction in the volume of air needed to carry the drilling cuttings to the surface, making it possible to drill deeper wells with a smaller compressor. Furthermore, the foam generated reduces the weight of the fluid (preventing it from settling in the well) and reduces the pressure required for pumping, improving the mud's circulation capacity.
