FloRight EPAM Friction ReducersDescription

The FloRight series is a portfolio of polyacrylamide-based inverse liquid emulsions engineered to deliver superior friction reduction across a wide range of brine systems—from fresh water to extremely high-TDS environments. These products are formulated with ultra-high molecular weight polymers to achieve rapid and effective friction reduction at low treatment concentrations, typically 0.25–1.00 gpt.FloRight products hydrate rapidly and develop performance in a very short time, allowing them to be continuously pumped directly into stimulation fluids during field operations. Supplied as ready-to-use liquid emulsions, they offer excellent handling, storage, and ease of application advantages over dry polymer alternatives.All FloRight products are APE- and NPE-free, making them more environmentally responsible and fully compatible with commonly used stimulation additives such as surfactants, scale inhibitors, biocides, and other completion chemicals. Through selective application across different brine chemistries, FloRight products deliver optimal performance at low dosages—resulting in cost-effective operations while minimizing formation damage.SNAP’s proprietary manufacturing technology enables customization of the polymer backbone to meet specific customer and application requirements. FloRight emulsions can be supplied either as backbone concentrates or as fully finished products, tailored to the end-use brine conditions.Backbone Concentrate PlatformFloRight backbone concentrates are developed using SNAP Energy Ventures’ innovative and disruptive polymer technology. This approach allows customers to efficiently customize formulations to their branding and performance needs while significantly reducing development time and cost.Backbone concentrates are classified by polymer chemistry into five categories:

Copolymers

Copolymers (Post-Hydrolyzed)

Terpolymers

Proppant-Carrying Friction Reducers

Cationic Friction Reducers (under development)
