Bulk Density | 720 kg/m3 |
Solubility | Immiscible |
APPLICATION & TREATMENT
- FORMATION SEAL is recommended to be added to the mud prior to entering a suspected loss-circulation zone at a concentration of 5 - 30 lb. /bbl.
- Mix 20 - 40 lb. /bbl of FORMATION SEAL in the slug pit, make random sweeps with this mixture as you drill ahead. The amount of losses will determine the particles size of product and the volume of the sweeps. Leave FORMATION SEAL slurry over the open hole prior to running the casing and cementing.
- Normal treatment is 0.25 - 0.5 lb/bbl with hourly addition of 50 - 100 lb depending on drilling rate and formations penetrated. Overtreatment should be avoided as it may render the viscosity too low or result in a high solid build-up.
