Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a synthetic polymer with an exceptional range of properties that make it invaluable across numerous stages of oil and gas operations. From the initial drilling phase to maximizing recovery from mature fields, PAM serves critical functions that enhance efficiency, safety, and economic returns. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides a comprehensive portfolio of PAM solutions designed to meet the diverse needs of the oil and gas industry.

In the realm of oilfield drilling, PAM is a cornerstone additive for drilling fluids. As a viscosifier, it increases the mud's viscosity, enabling efficient transport of drill cuttings to the surface. Its role as a shale inhibitor is crucial for maintaining wellbore stability by preventing reactive shales from swelling and sloughing. Additionally, PAM acts as a fluid loss reducer, minimizing filtrate invasion into the formation, and as a lubricant, reducing torque and drag on the drill string.

Moving beyond drilling, PAM is a key component in Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR). Through polymer flooding, PAM increases the viscosity of injected water, improving sweep efficiency and displacing oil trapped in reservoir rock. This is vital for maximizing recovery from mature fields where conventional waterflooding has become less effective. The ability of PAM to maintain its rheological properties under reservoir conditions makes it a preferred choice for such applications.

Furthermore, PAM finds application in hydraulic fracturing as a highly effective friction reducer. By smoothing fluid flow, it lowers pumping pressures and allows for higher injection rates, optimizing the stimulation process. This leads to better fracture creation and improved hydrocarbon flow from the reservoir.

Other significant applications of PAM in the oil and gas industry include:

  • Water Plugging Agents: Used to control water production from high-water-cut wells by selectively blocking high-permeability zones.
  • Drilling Mud Additives: Contributing to overall mud stability, lubricity, and filtration control.
  • Waste Sludge Dewatering: Facilitating the separation of water from drilling muds and cuttings, aiding in waste management and environmental compliance.
  • Soil Stabilization: In certain construction aspects of oilfield development, PAM can be used to stabilize soil and prevent erosion.
