Cerogel PPG-746
Cerogel PPG-746 belongs to Cerogel PPG series which is a class of special materials developed as a treatment options for water injection wells to improve conformance control. These are Preformed Particle Gel (PPG) powdered particles ranging from 10’s of microns to one mm in diameter, which will swell further when placed in an injection brine to plug preferentially the high permeability watered-out channels in the near-wellbore area of targets injection wells.

- HIGHLIGHTS
The Cerogel PPG products form intermediate strength gels, with both viscoelastic properties and plugging efficiency. They can be added into the injection water for a brief periods of treatment time and will travel some distance from the wellbore and plug the very high permeability intervals (including super-K permeability zones) and even narrow fractures. The injection water that then follows the PPG treatment is forced to flow more into the lower permeability zones that have as of yet not been swept very much by the injection water. The overall result of a successful treatment is an increase in the oil production and decrease in the water rate in offset producers.
- Field Tested and Approved
A proven product effective in oil field production. Cerogel PPG-746 decreases Water Oil Ratio (WOR) in waterfloods and improves sweep efficiency for improved oil recovery.
