7. CHEMICAL DESCRIPTION
Corrosion Inhibitor: is added at a concentration to provide protection for steel tubular against pitting
and excessive metal loss.
Multifunction Agent: is included to:
Prevent ferric hydroxide precipitation. The addition of the iron control agent is critical as the tubing
and casing could release large amounts of iron ions that could precipitate in the matrix.
Reduce the surface tension between the fluids and hence facilitate easier flow back.
Reduce the friction pressures and increase the pump rate during acid wash stages while keeping the
pumping pressure within limit.
De-emulsifier: is or emulsion breakers, are classes of specialty chemicals used to separate emulsions,
which enable the quick separation of water or acid from oil.
Note: all chemical’s SDS should be keep on the location all the time

FLOWBACK DRAWING
9) Review the condition and suitability of the CT well control equipment, fluid / well control manifold and
communication process applicable for the safe execution of job.
10) Confirm the maximum allowable pressure for downstream flow back lines and production lines while
kick-off operation (Must be confirmed with Lukoil supervisor while adjust the choke size of manifold).
16.2.3. Function and Pressure Test
1) Spot the equipment as per instructions and guidance of Antonoil WT and Stimulation supervisors.
2) Tighten up the male with a sledgehammer to complete make up with all threads engaged.
3) Pressure test pipe line with equipment, Different Pressure Grade see Table—13.
16.2.4. Flow Back Procedure
After stabilization of the flow back of the wellbore fluid and stable wellhead pressure, change the fixed
choke to an adjustable choke in accordance with the pressure at the wellhead. At first, the outlet fluid will
flow out to flare pit directly. When open the well and start the operation, meanwhile need ignition (gas
cylinder, gas hose & fire etc.) or get order from Lukoil supervisor, the gas burner will be used for this job,
ignite nozzle of the gas cylinder before open the well, Choke size from 40mm-60mm according to WHP.
When the well on stable flow with conditions BS&W% less than 3%, pH =6 or until flowback tanks have
been filled up (total capacity of flowback tanks 250m3) stop flowing back the well in which event come
first), and after confirmation from “LUKOIL representatives” POOH CT to surface while continue monitoring
the well parameters (WHP, BS&W%, pH, H2S, CO2 … etc.).
Send flow back sample to CPF laboratory for BSW % confirmation for stop the flow back.
Note: Gradually bean up in required choke increments and flow until well is clean and desired drawdown / flow
rate is achieved under stable conditions.
Note: Inform the LUKOIL representatives, if the well is not able to flow naturally, and wait for the certain
instruction or program being planned by them.
Note: Adjustable choke size according LUKOIL representatives & Separator Pressure

doctor as soon as practicable.
4) Acid contacts the skin, wash the area thoroughly with water.
5) Remove clothing contaminated with acid solutions or additive solutions.
17.3 H2S
1) Once start well flowing, the continuous fire next to outlet of flowing line must be ready all the time.
2) Portable H2S detector must be inspected annually and calibrated each time.
3) All SCBA must be inspected functionally and recharged if necessary.
4) All personnel work at job site must be trained to use air respirators.
5) Everyone on location should be equipped and able to use H2S detector, mask and sufficient SCBA.
6) Wind-vane must be obvious and showed to all personnel before entering well site.
7) Master points had to assign before an operation and equipped with SCBA.

9) First aid must be equipped at job site with necessary medicine for emergency use.
10) H2S detector should be located in well testing area (separator & sampling point) and the downwind of
both flare pits. During flaring Antonoil WT crew is responsible for air control around flare pit. Air
control in the working area is performed under the completed risk assessment and requirements of
flaring PTW. The control is performed to check influence of flaring emissions (of free gas flow) onto
working site and adjacent areas to ensure site personnel safety
A minimal set of controlled gases in working area includes:
- Hydrogen sulphide - H2S
- Sulfur dioxide SO2
- Carbon oxide CO.
Air control have to be performed by authorized gas tester. The ambient air quality control is provided
by well test team to ensure flaring emissions safety for local population and environment.
Monitoring of the ambient air condition takes place at the same time with flaring operations at
frequency rate, which is defined by the flaring duration. The sampling cycle, defined by the mobile lab
equipment capabilities is 15 minutes; other words, the whole set of measured parameter is reliable
once every 15 minutes.
11) During sampling, SCBA and H2S detector must be equipped.
12) Once H2S leakage, all operation should be stop immediately, shift leader specified the dangerous zone
according to wind direction and speed, all personnel must be evacuated to safety place or muster
point.
1) First of all- all employees involved in operation must wear minimum PPE set: Hard Hat, Safety glasses,
Safety Boots, Gloves, personal gas detector, personal gas mask, etc.
2) Emergency showers and eye water stations to be checked.
3) Pressure test surface rigid line, X-mas tree and flow back line qualifiedly in accordance with safety
demand. All persons must stay away high-pressure area.
4) Injection line must be tightening with steel rope and anchor. Ensure the pipe line, valve and manifold
are opened freely for pumping.
5) Personnel involved in well flowing must be a well-trained person with rich experiences on emergency
handling.
6) Fire should be lighted all the time during flow back operation.
7) H2S detector and “Respirator and Mask” MUST be equipped enough for each operation, extremely
nitrogen lifting and well flowing. Timely inspect gas pressure and alarm whistle to ensure all
component is in good condition.
8) All personnel involved in operation should be trained well to use H2S detector and “Respirator and
Mask”.
9) First aid must be carried all the time with work crew. Renew or replace the medicines if necessary.
