CFL P70

CFL P70 brown powder Chrome Free Lignosulphonate with specific smell it is a multipurpose defelocculant temperature stabilizer and fluid loss control additive for use in all water based drilling fluids, meets OCMA DFCP-8 specification.

COMPOSITION and APPLICATION:

CFL P70 is all purpose deflocculant and temperature stabilizer agent .It is effective for decreasing the viscosity and reducing the fluid loss for all water base mud sytems. Specially used in fresh- and seawater plus salt potassium and lime basis mud system. It has a high temperature tolerance up to 170 °C. CFL P70 is non polluting it does not contain toxic heavy metal such as chromium.

ADVANTAGES:

· Contains negligible amount of Chrome and no other heavy metal which is not dangerous for environment.

· Temperature tolerance in the range of 130 to 170 ° C.

· Compatible with all water base mud systems.

· Reduces the fluid loss without any additional polymers and thickness of filter cake.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES :

Appearance : Coarse powder

Active Content : 88 %

Solubility : Easily soluble in all drilling fluid systems

Moisture : 8-10%

pH (5% solution) : 3

RECOMEDED TREATMENT :

For filtration control and to disperse the slurry 3-30 kgs/m3,dependent on the type of drilling fluid by adding directly to slurry. Due to the CFL P70 ‘s low pH treatments require additional 25 kg of caustic soda for every 100 kg of CFL P70 .

PACKAGING :

CMC Technical Grade

Description:

CMC (technical grade) is a dispersible, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, fluid-loss reducing additive supplied in three grades: low viscosity, high viscosity and extra-high viscosity. CMC additive can be used in freshwater and seawater mud systems,keeps properties under high temperature faced in geothermal drilling made according to API 13 a and EN ISO 13500 standards.

Applications:

CMC technical-grade additive is used as a fluid-loss reducing additive in freshwater and seawater muds. It is less effective in brines and saltwater and is not generally recommended to be used if the salinity ezceeds 50,000 ppm. CMC Lo Vis tech-grade additive is used in high-viscosity, high-solids or heavily weighted fluids and produces only slight increases in viscosity. CMC Hi Vis and Extra Hi Vis tech-grade additives are used in low-viscosity or low-solids fluids and increase viscosity in addition to controlling fluid loss.

ADVANTAGES and LIMITATIONS:

  • Widely available and an economic source of polymer fluid-loss control
  • Concentrated chemical, very effective at small treatment levels
  • Can be used in most water-base drilling fluids
  • Subject to bacterial degradation, a biocide should be used to prevent fermentation
  • Not utilized in high-salinity fluids that exceed 50,000 ppm
  • Not tolerant of high-pH and high-calcium-ion conditions in combination

Specifications:

Physical appearance:
Off-white powder
Specific gravity:
1.59 (Density may vary based on grade and purity)
Solubility in water:
Completely Soluble
pH:
7-10
Temperature stability:
Stable to 250 °F (120 °C) in field use

Recommended Treatment:

  1. In freshwater: 1.4 to 4.3 kg/m³
  2. In seawater: (5.7 to 8.6 kg/m³)
  3. Add slowly through a mixing hopper at a rate of 10 to 20 min/sack

Barite
Barite (Barium Sulfate) weighting material is a specially processed barite in powder form for use a drilling fluid as weighting additive. Barite increases the mud weight by without increasing the solid content. Barite meets the API Specification 13a, section 7 and EN ISO 13500.

Applications:

  • Increase drilling fluid density with minimum solid content
  • Control formation pressure
  • Plugs the boreholes and cavities in formation

Advantages:

  • High specific gravity, high quality, and free from corrosive and abrasive material
  • Chemically inert
  • Cost effective weighting agent
  • Easily removed

Specifications:

Appearance:
Off-white powder
Specific gravity:
4.2 (minimum)
Slurry pH (6%):
8.6
Moisture content: 
2%
Bulk density, lb/ft³: 
150
Mineralogical component:
 >94% barium sulfate

Packaging:

Soda Ash
Soda  Ash  is  used  in  water‐base  mud  as  a  source  of  carbonate  ions  to precipitate  calcium, increase pH  or  flocculate  spud  mud. Soda  Ash  is  the  sodium  carbonate Na2CO3 which  is  soluble  in  water  and  dissociates  into  sodium  (Na)  and carbonate  (CO3)  ions in  solution. 

APPLICATIONS

  • Soda  Ash  is  primarily  used  to  reduce  soluble  calcium  in  water‐base  drilling  muds  and makeup waters. 
  • Other  uses  include  increasing  pH  and  flocculating  spud  muds. Calcium  is  present  in  many makeup  waters  and  formations.It  can  cause  flocculation  of  the  mud  resulting  in increased rheology,  gel  strengths  and  fluid  loss.  High‐filtrate  calcium  will  cause  precipitation  of calcium‐sensitive  additives  such  as  the  PHPA polymer which  are  the  most  sensitive.  Cellulosic  polymers  PAC HV ,PAC L   and  CMC  are  only  slightly calcium‐sensitive  and  tolerate  moderate  levels  of  filtrate  calcium.

ADVANTAGES

  • Widely  available  and  an  economical  source  of  carbonate  ions  to  precipitate  calcium  while increase  pH.
  • Concentrate  chemical;  effectively  removes  calcium  in  most  drilling  fluids  at  small  treatment levels 
  • Effective  flocculant  for  spud  muds.

TYPICAL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES 

Physical  appearance:
White  powder
Specific  gravity: 2.51
pH: 11.4
Solubility in water: 51  g  /  100  mL  at 30°C

Recommended Treatment :

Typical  treatments  of  Soda  Ash range  from  0.5  to  5.0  kg/m3,  depending  on  the  calcium  level  and  water chemistry  of  the  drilling  fluid. Generally soda ash is added to water before than all additives.  Treatments  should  be  made  on  an  incremental  basis to  prevent  over‐treatment  which  results  in  carbonate  contamination.

Soda ASH is packaged in 50 kg pp bags
