Applications
CC-1250M is used to clean the wellbore, annulus, workstring, surface equipment, and surface lines during
displacement operations. Please consult a RIG-CHEM representative for an engineered displacement procedure.
Advantages
CC-1250M is not based on contact time as other displacement surfactants are.

Efficiently removes synthetic mud, dispersing the oil and oil-coated solids into small individual droplets which do
not commingle or agglomerate.
Environmental Data & Handling
CC-1250M is biodegradable, non-toxic, non-hazardous, non-flammable, and non-corrosive.
When used as directed CC-1250M does not create a sheen, as directed and tested in accordance to
Appendix 1 of Subpart A to Part 435 EPA 40 CFR, to the surface of receiving waters.

DEFOAMER W-1
Defoamer W-1 is a highly water dispersible silicone formulation designed for general purpose defoaming. It
will prevent foam in degassers, coil tubing units, pits, return tanks and other equipment where there are
foam problems. The defoaming ability of Defoamer W-1 may improve the quality and quantity of production
by eliminating foam and foam carry-over and improving the efficiency of treating equipment.

Applications
Because each application varies, it is suggested that 0.05 - 0.1 ppm be used initially, with a gradual lowering of
the treating rate as determined by operating conditions. Severe foaming may need to be treated with 0.2 ppm.
Advantages
The low ppm range in where Defoamer W-1 is effective makes it an economical choice.
Defoamer W-1 is safe to use in degassers, coil tubing units, production vessels, pits, return tanks and other
equipment where fluid foaming may be a problem.
Environmental Data
Although Defoamer W-1 is a low toxicity product, Bioassay informatioin is available on request.
