Mica is a group of silicate minerals whose outstanding physical characteristics is that individual mica crystals can easily be split into extremely thin elastic plates. Mica is used in the well-drilling industry as an additive to drilling fluids. The coarsely ground mica flakes helps prevent the loss of circulation by sealing porous sections of the drill hole and use in other products such as drywalls, paints, fillers, especially in parts for automobiles, roofing, and shingles, as well as in electronics. Fluids loss additives such as solid particles and water-thickening polymers may be added to the drilling mud to reduce fluid loss from the well bore to the formation. Insoluble and partially soluble Fluids loss additives includes mica, bentonite, carefully sized particles of calcium borate , starch, crushed walnut hulls etc.
Quickseal is a blend of husk, cellulose fibers and flaky LCM material. It can be used in water-base and oil-base mud, as well as work over fluids as a source of deformable, compressible particles that enhance a fluids particle size distribution, seal depleted sands and inhibit hydration of sensitive shale. Characteristics of quickaseals such as it is an effective in controlling lost circulation, seals micro fractures, provides excellent particle size distribution to form a tough filter cake, effective in both deep water and shallow water applications, helps reducing or stopping seepage loss of mud and work over fluids, compatible with all water, synthetic, oil and brine fluids.
Cellulose fibers are fibers made with ethers or esters of cellulose, which can be obtained from the bark, wood or leaves of plants, or from other plant-based material. The main applications of cellulose fibers are in the oilfield Industry as chemical filters, textile industry and as fiber-reinforcement composites etc. cellulose fibers in filtration applications can greatly improve filtration performance when used as a primary or remedial precoat in different ways like, Preventing fine particulate bleed-through, Precoating easily and rapidly and reducing soluble contamination, Improving the stability of the filter-aid cake to make it more resistant to pressure bumps and interruptions, Improving cake release and reducing cleaning requirements etc.
Hematite is mined as an important ore mineral of iron. It is electrically conductive. It is not only harder than pure iron, but also much more brittle. It is also available as a synthetic product. Hematite is a high-density weighting material. The hematite ore used as a weighting agent in drilling fluids has a mica-like crystal structure ground to a particle size suitable for use in drilling fluids. It is used to obtain mud weights in excess of 20.0 Pounds per gallon (ppg) in water based drilling fluids, 19.0 ppg in oil based drilling fluids, or any time that exceptional control is required of solids percentage for theology control. Higher density Hematite occupies less space than an equal mass of Barite. This allows more room of water, reducing the interaction between solids.
Walnut shell has an extremely hard shell with characteristics that make it an ideal media in filtration operations. It offers excellent filtration solutions in oil fields for separating oil or solids from oilfield produced water. Walnut shell blasting offers the aggressiveness required to remove hard paints and coating without damaging substrates. The process also enables selective coating removal, wherein the top coating can be removed without affecting the underlying coating. Walnut shell filters are used for tertiary treatment following primary and secondary treatment which removes the bulk of the oil and suspended solids. Typically, effluent is reinjected for reuse or disposal or discharged to a surface body of water.
Barites powder that is extensively used in oil and gas exploration/ drilling industry. As a well is drilled, the bit passes through various formations, each with different characteristics. The deeper the hole, the more barite is needed as a percentage of the total mud mix. An additional benefit of barite is that, it is non-magnetic and thus does not interfere with magnetic measurements taken in the borehole, either during logging-while-drilling or in separate drill hole logging. Other uses are in added-value applications which include filler in pant and plastics, sound reduction in engine compartments, coat of automobile finishes for smoothness and corrosion resistance, friction products for automobiles and trucks, radiation-shielding cements, glass, ceramics, break lining companies and medical applications.
Calcium Carbonate Powder use in different applications like in building products, water treatment, glass ingredients, toothpaste, paint, coating, foods, dusting agent and it also used for prepare the medicines. We provides high quality and purest form of calcium carbonate powder. In the oil industry, calcium carbonate is added to drilling fluids as a formation-bridging and filtercake-sealing agent; it is also a weighting material which increases the density of drilling fluids to control the downhole pressure. Calcium carbonate is also used in the purification of iron from iron ore in a blast furnace. The carbonate is calcined in situ to give calcium oxide, which forms a slag with various impurities present, and separates from the purified iron.
Gaur gum is used in oil well drilling muds, which give a better colloid thereby reducing water losses. It regulates the viscosity of mud solution, stabilizes and regulates the flow properties of the drilling muds. it helps to reduce friction in the holes and minimizing power requirement. It is used in oil & gas drilling industries, such as to increase the oil & gas production and increase the oil recovery substantially. Normal gaur gum gives viscosity after 2 hours but fast hydration gaur gum powder gives viscosity in 3 minutes. It helps in control fluid loss, provides viscosity of drilling fluids, adjusts rheological properties and it is an economical source polymer viscosifier.
We manufacturing Super quality Bentonite in API Grade Bentonites are availed in variety of applications. Use of Bentonite is as a mud constituent for oil and water well drilling. Its roles are mainly to seal the borehole walls, to remove drill cuttings and to lubricate the cutting head. Bentonite deposits are normally exploited by quarrying. Extracted bentonite is distinctly solid, the material is initially crushed and, if necessary, activated with the addition of soda ash (Na2CO3). Bentonite is subsequently dried to reach a moisture content of approximately 15%. Bentonite in civil engineering applications is used traditionally as a thixotropic, support and lubricant agent in diaphragm walls and foundations, in tunnelling, in horizontal directional drilling and pipe jacking.
