    The document discusses a customer that was experiencing high failure rates of gas wells due to corrosion and scale buildup. After analyzing the wells, the company determined that bottom-up treatment was needed. They applied weighted pellets containing scale and corrosion inhibitors that sank to the bottom of the wells, providing long-term treatment and significantly reducing failures.

    CASE HISTORY

    BS & CI System Saver Pellets

    Jacam Significantly Reduces Failures with Solid Chemistry

    Technical: Challenge
    System Saver Pellets A customer was experiencing an average annual failure rate of one for its
    are weighted to fall 350 natural gas wells in Central Texas.
    The 20-year-old vertical wells had to have workovers performed annually
    through fluids, settle in
    and sometimes after only six to eight months in order to replace tubing
    the rat hole and treat damaged by corrosion and plugged off by barium sulfate.
    problems from the Traditional liquid corrosion/scale inhibitors, applied in both continuous
    bottom-up. Formulated feed and batch treatments, were ineffective in treating these wells, which
    with nanotechnology, have depths of 15,000 to 18,000 feet and temperatures of 250to 300 F.

    of these extremely deep wells, Jacam treated the well with barium sulfate

    registered biocides.
    The pellets are weighted and designed to fall into the rat hole of the well,
    allowing the chemistry to treat the well from the bottom-up.
    Value
    After three years of quarterly treatments with Jacams System Saver Pellets, only one failure due to scale has
    occurred, with zero failures due to corrosion. The one failure in three years as compared to the previous rate of
    one well failing every year has provided the following benefits:
    Annual workovers were previously costing the customer an average of $60,000 per well; therefore, the
    workover savings on 110 wells adds up to approximately $6.6 million per year.
    The customer has also realized cost savings from reduced downtime due to workovers.
    The wells are now treated quarterly instead of monthly, requiring less shut-in time.
    The cost of System Saver Pellets is significantly less than conventional liquid products.
    Since cleaning up the corrosion-related iron issues in the wells, Jacams foamer applications have
    performed more effectively and reduced the amount of foamer needed to lift the water. This has further
    increased well performance and lowered costs.
