WSO Using Chrome Propionate Crosslinking
On December 1, 1994, Halliburton performed a 100 bbl gelled polymer treatment, using HE® 100 Polymer crosslinked with Prod® XL-200 Crosslinker, which utilizes Phillips Chrome (+3) Technology, on the Phillips Nitschke A No. 2 well in the Texas Panhandle. Forty-six months (October 1, 1998) after treatment, it is calculated this application blocked approximately 237,000 bbl of water from being produced, thus resulting in a substantial savings. Average production results for the Nitschke are listed below:
| Before treatment (November, 1994) |
33 BOPD |
318 BWPD |
| 14 months following treatment (January, 1996) |
40 BOPD |
150 BWPD |
| 24 months following treatment (November, 1996) |
38 BOPD |
148 BWPD |
| 32 months following treatment (August, 1997) |
32 BOPD |
143 BWPD |
| 40 months following treatment (April, 1998) |
30 BOPD |
150 BWPD |
| 46 months following treatment (October, 1998) |
35 BOPD |
135 BWPD |
The Nitschke A #2 well, located in Ochiltree County, was drilled in 1983 into the Alpar Hunton formation. Two sets of perfs were made at 9,056 to 9,069 ft. Initial production was 700 BOPD.
