AQF-2™ Foaming Agent Description AQF-2™ foaming agent is an anionic surfactant which can be added to fresh water for air/foam, air/gel-foam, or mist drilling applications. Applications/Functions The use of AQF-2 foaming agent promotes or assists with the following: ? Enhance the efficiency of cuttings removal ? Increase the ability to lift large volumes of water ? Improve hole-cleaning capability of the airstream ? Reduce the sticking tendencies of wet clays, minimizing the risk of mud rings and wall packing ? Reduce erosion of poorly consolidated formations ? Drilling in zones with lost circulation ? Increase borehole stability ? Reduce air-volume requirement Advantages ? NSF/ANSI Standard 60 certified ? Elevated flash point for easier shipping ? High quality, high expansion foam with a consistency similar to shaving foam ? High stability with excellent retention time ? Proven product for multi-discipline application Typical Properties Appearance Specific gravity pH (10% solution) Flash point Light yellow, transparent liquid 1.038 6.5 – 8.5 142°F (61°C) Recommended Treatment Approximate Amounts of AQF-2 Foaming Agent Added to Injection Water % by Volume Amount/100 gal Amount/bbl Liters/m3 0.5 - 2 0.5 - 2 gallons 1.5 - 7 pints 5 - 20 © Copyright 2010 Halliburton EZ-MUD, QUIK-TROL, and QUIK-GEL are registered trademarks of Halliburton AQF-2 is a trademark of Halliburton Rev. 01/2011 Because the conditions of use of this product are beyond the seller's control, the product is sold without warranty either express or implied and upon condition that purchaser make its own test to determine the suitability for purchaser’s application.

Recommended Treatment (Continued) Approximate Product Make-ups for Air Drilling Injection Slurries Injection Slurry Water (gallons) QUIK-TROL® GOLD polymer (pounds) EZ-MUD® liquid polymer (pints) AQF-2™ foaming agent (% by volume) Air-Foam Drilling System 100 0 - 1 0 - 2 0.5 - 2 Foam mixing/injection procedure: Add AQF-2 foaming agent to injection water. Inject into the air stream at a rate necessary to maintain hole stability and penetration rate. Increase amount of AQF-2 foaming agent as required to compensate for downhole water dilution. To build a stiff-foam drilling system: Mix QUIK-TROL GOLD polymer (0.5-1 pound per 100 gallons) or EZ-MUD liquid polymer (1-2 pints per 100 gallons) with water before adding AQF-2 foaming agent. Inject into the air stream at a rate necessary to maintain hole stability and penetration rate. Injection Slurry Water (gallons) QUIK-GEL® viscosifier (pounds) QUIK-TROL® GOLD polymer (pounds) AQF-2™ foaming agent (% by volume) Gel-Foam Drilling System 100 12 – 15 1 0.5 - 1 Gel-Foam Mixing/Injection Procedure: Mix viscosifier and polymer with water before adding AQF-2 foaming agent. Inject into the air stream at a rate necessary to maintain hole stability and penetration rate. Notes: ? Close product container immediately after use to avoid gelling of remaining AQF-2 foaming agent. ? Foam and effluent must never be discharged into a stream or waterway. It is the end-user’s responsibility to contain foam/effluent, cuttings, and production water. Utilize hay bales, temporary containment ponds or systems to isolate the foam. Packaging AQF-2™ foaming agent is packaged in 5-gal (19-liter) plastic containers or in 55-gal (208 liter) drums.
