MT Semi-Synthetic Retarder
JUMP TO
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SSR-250 is a proprietary semi-synthetic retarder designed to provide reliable set-time control in mid-temperature cementing applications. Developed by the Riteks R&D laboratory, SSR-250 delivers consistent performance in bottomhole circulating temperatures ranging from 200°F (93°C) to 300°F+ (150°C). Specifically formulated for use with all API and ASTM cements commonly used in mid-temperature basins, it offers manageable dosage rates, predictable thickening time control, and operational flexibility. SSR-250 provides dependable performance and excellent value for a wide range of demanding well conditions.

APPLICATIONS & BENEFITS
APPLICATIONS
APPLICATIONS & BENEFITSSSR-250 is ideal for mid-to-high temperature, primary and remedial cementing operations. Its stable, non-dispersing performance in cement systems ensures consistent, predictable set-time control, while reducing design complexity. This allows users to have an "all-in-one-bag" approach without introducing intensifiers to aid in retardation.
