Master Surfactant

Made in USA

MSS-2000 is a proprietary, highly effective, non-ionic surfactant. The product is soluble in water, brine and acid solutions. The surfactant provides a low surface tension allowing faster and more efficient flow back of the water injected during hydraulic fracturing operations.

Product Application

MSS-2000 is added to frac fluids at typical dose rates of 1 - 2 gpt. At this dose rate, the product reduces the surface tension of water or brine to approximately 29 mN/m. Less energy is therefore required to remove the water from the fractured reservoir, resulting in higher gas or oil rates sooner. Flowback surfactants are critical in both moderate permeability oil reservoirs and low permeability gas reservoirs. Flow back of the fracturing fluid is improved by reducing the capillary pressure of the fluid in the fracture region.

Advantages

MSS-2000 is a sophisticated flowback surfactant used to increase the amount and rate of water returned after a frac job. When added to the injected fluids at concentrations of 1 - 2 gpt (1,000 - 2,000 ppm), the surface tension of the water is lowered, thereby requiring less reservoir pressure to produce the fluids during well clean up.
