PIPE FREE

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

  • PIPE FREE additive is used in diesel oil or in oil-based muds to form a highly effective stuck-pipe spotting fluid.
  • PIPE FREE enables spotting fluids to penetrate and "crack" the water-based-mud filter cake with an extremely high-fluid-loss and solids-free filtrate.
  • These features allow the PIPE FREE and oil solution to pass through the water- based-mud filter cake between the stuck pipe and wellbore wall to facilitate freeing differentially stuck pipe.
