Reservoir Souring
As reservoirs age or injection and formation waters co-mingle downhole, the introduction of SRB (Sulfate Reducing Bacteria) can sour the reservoir, as well as generate H
2S, which can lead to corrosion in your well, and health and safety concerns for the community. SRB thrive under reservoir conditions, achieving rapid, exponential growth. Once introduced, they become impossible to remove. Because of this, it is imperative to control this potential contamination before it develops.
Multi-Chem’s biocides are specifically formulated to help safely sterilize the water used in frac jobs and protect formations from SRB contaminates that turn your production sour. This frac water conditioning with biocide treatments not only serve as a preemptive strike against reservoir souring, but also provides you with a significant return on your investment, greatly exceeding the initial cost of the treatment.
