Riteks THIX-C2 – Thixotropic Additive

Additive for Oilfield Cementing Applications

Riteks THIX-C2 is a high-performance thixotropic additive designed to optimize primary cementing operations in oilfield drilling. Specifically engineered to control free water, promote early strength development, prevent cement fallback, and mitigate fluid migration, THIX-C2 is the ideal choice for achieving superior wellbore integrity.

This advanced additive is highly effective at low loading levels, enhancing fluid properties and compressive strengths in water-extended cement slurries. Riteks THIX-C2 is particularly valuable in demanding applications where rapid setting is critical, such as squeeze jobs, plug placements, and water shutoff operations.

By improving gelation and transition times, Riteks THIX-C2 supports more reliable zonal isolation while reducing operational costs and rig time, making it a key component in efficient, fit-for-purpose cementing designs.

Key Features and Benefits of Riteks THIX-C2

  • Optimizes slurry transition and gelation properties to minimize the risk of fluid migration and gas channeling.

  • Accelerates gel strength development for quicker setting times and enhanced early compressive strength.

  • Reduces job costs by minimizing waiting-on-cement (WOC) time and lessening the need for additional fluid-loss additives.

  • Offers a cost-effective alternative to gypsum for thixotropic cement systems.

  • Enhances performance in water-extended cement slurries, providing reliable set times and fluid control even in challenging downhole environments.

  • Ideal for quick-set cement applications such as squeeze cementing, plugging operations, and water shutoff treatments.

  • Supports wellbore stability and long-term zonal isolation, critical for maximizing well productivity and reducing intervention costs.

Why Choose Riteks THIX-C2 for Oilfield Cementing?

In oil and gas well construction, preventing cement fallback, managing fluid migration, and achieving rapid compressive strength development are crucial for operational success. Riteks THIX-C2 is purpose-built for the unique demands of primary cementing and remedial cementing operations, offering reliable performance across a wide range of well conditions.

Whether you are designing a lightweight slurry, a squeeze job for sealing off water influx, or a critical plug setting application, Riteks THIX-C2 enhances cement system performance, helping ensure a strong, dependable cement sheath from the outset.

DELIVERING RELIABLE SOLUTIONS

Operators constantly grapple with two persistent issues: optimizing fluid performance to stave off contamination and properly managing ECDs (Equivalent Circulating Densities).

emperature-thinning and shear-thinning behaviors, are critical aspects of maintaining rheological hierarchy and are often left unaddressed. 

Conventional additives, unfortunately, tend to fall short of managing these expectations, failing to provide the necessary enhancements to these critical properties of the wellbore and cementing fluids.

At Riteks, we acknowledge the necessity for reliable solutions that surpass industry benchmarks. That’s why we proudly offer multipurpose/Thixotropic Cement Additives, including our standout product, THIX-C2, designed to tackle specific challenges in your operations. 

Our Thixotropic Cement Additives offer unique benefits like controlling free water, promoting early strength development, and preventing cement fallback. Notably, it does not accelerate setting time at low temperatures, ensuring optimal fluid properties and strengths in various cement designs. THIX-C2 can also shorten a cement slurry’s SGS TrT (Static Gel Strength Transition Time), lowering the opportunity to become contaminated before being fully “set.”  

Incorporating these additives into your operations brings substantial benefits. You’ll experience improved long-term zonal isolation, reduction in channeling, prevention of costly production loss, and remedial costs. This translates into increased efficiency, cost savings, and a smoother cementing process as a whole.

With a rich legacy of industry expertise, we at Riteks are committed to delivering high-quality products designed to address your most significant challenges.
