OFM-500™ Bio-Remedial Treatment For Oil Field Maintenance
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
This product was developed to meet the demanding needs of the “oil-drilling” industry. It has been specially formulated to treat & clean crude oil and its by-products on hard surfaces, soils, gravel, pits, machinery & oil rigs. The highly effective cleaners & degreasers developed for this product effectively break-down all known components of the crude oil. Further, the bio-remedial “action” of the harmless micro-organisms, turn the harmful components into safe, environmentally friendly substances that can be absorbed into the soil or discharged into drainage systems. This product contains no solvents & is non-flammable. It is non-hazardous, non-corrosive & non-caustic. It is manufactured under strict quality control standards making it one of the safest cleaning products on the market for both you and the environment.
We recommend that OFM-500™ be used as a major part of a routine maintenance program in all phases of the drilling process.
HOW TO USE
Dilute 1 part OFM-500™ to 15 to 30 parts water depending on the intensity of the application. For example, 1 gallon of OFM-500™ makes 15 to 30 gallons of diluted product that is ready for use. A water temperature between 80° F. & 90° F. is the optimum temperature for use with this product but, it will perform very well in any water temperature between 40° F. & 120° F. Apply this product using a pressure or industrial pump sprayer or manually from a drum or pail. When spraying use sufficient pressure to break the surface tension. If pressure is not used, manually agitate & aerate OFM-500™ on the surface being treated. In other words, use a stiff broom or brush on rocks, soil, gravel, grass & trees if it is inconvenient to use a sprayer. Remember that you must mix this product, as described above, in order for both the cleaning effect & the bio-remedial process to take place.
Do not exceed a water temperature of 125°F.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
OFM-500™ is an active mixture of hydrocarbon-oxidizing, naturally occurring, single-celled micro-organisms with a “bio-surface cleaning agent” and water.
It is specially formulated to be safe, environmentally enhancing and effective.
PRODUCT EFFECTIVENESS: The effectiveness of this product and the “speed” at which it works is determined by certain factors. In general these factors are as follows:
TEMPERATURE: The warmer the temperature, the faster this product will work.
AGE OF THE STAIN OR SPILL: The older the stain or spill, the longer it takes to work.
AERATION & PRESSURE: The use of an industrial sprayer or pressure washer speeds the process.
TYPE OF HYDROCARBON: Some hydrocarbons take longer than others.
It has been our experience that the “cleaning” action of this product begins immediately. The bio-remedial process can begin almost immediately but may take longer depending on the above factors.
