TAM International Inc. established a new line of TAM FastSwell™ elastomers, adding to their extensive FREECAP® swellable packer product offering. TAM FastSwell™ provides a fast, controlled swell time at lower temperatures and high salinities. The product line was developed for challenging water-swell conditions in the US Permian Basin and Russia frac markets, but both water-swell and oil-swell elastomers are now available worldwide. The elastomers perform well for frac applications between 80°F and 120°F (32°C to 49°C).
