Commercial Chemicals

 

  • Caustic Soda: Used to maintain or increase pH. Increasing pH with NaOH precipitates magnesium (Mg 2+) and suppresses (Ca2+) in high hardness water, reduces corrosion and neutralizes acid gases such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide.
  • Soda Ash: Sodium carbonate to treat Ca ion out in makeup water and to remove Calcium Contamination particularly due to Anhydrite.
  • Nacl Salt : Used to form clear-brine workover and completion fluid with densities ranging from 8.4 to 10 lb/ gal. Increase shale inhibition by decreasing water activity, reducing formation salt dissolution, reducing freezing point of water base fluids and reducing the potential of forming gas hydrates.
  • Sodium Bi-Carbonate: Sodium bicarbonate. To remove calcium and lower PH.

  

Weighting materials

 

  • Barite 4.1 and 4.2 SG: Barite BaSO4, used as a weighting material
  • Hematite 4.8, 5.05 and 5.2 SG: used as a weighting material and in many industrial processes

  

Oil Well Cement

 

  • Class G Oil Well Cement: used as a cementing agent for oil wells, water wells and many other industrial application such as road construction and metal casting.

  

Viscosifiers

 

  • API Bentonite: Sodium Bentonite used as a gelling agent in oil wells

  

Filtration Control Agent

 

  • Non-Fermenting Starch: Non fermenting starch for Fluid loss control & rheology stabilizer in fresh water & saturated salt water mud.
  • Starch HT: High temperature stable, Non-fermenting starch for Fluid loss control & rheology stabilizer in fresh water & saturated salt water mud.

  

Lost Circulation Materials

 

  • Mica: Sized Grade of Mica
  • Nut Plug: Ground nut shells

  

Shale Inhibitors

 

  • Liquid PHPA: Liquid PHPA for shale stabilizing and cutting encapsulation.

Glycol Medium Cloud Point: Medium-Cloud-Point polyglycol for moderate-salinity fluids and high temperatures

  • Glycol High Cloud Point: Polyglycol for high-salinity fluids and high temperatures.
  • Sulfonated Asphalt: Water dispersible shale inhibitor, aids in stabilizing shale sections, controlling solids dispersion and improving wall cake characteristics.

  

Biocides and Scavengers

 

  • Biocide Glutaraldehyde based:
    Prevent bacterial degradation. It is de-activated by ammonia, primary amines and oxygen scavengers.
  • H2S Scavengers: Displays a continuous H2S scavenging activity over longer time period. Exhibits good temperature stability up to 150°C and intended for use in low pH conditions.
  • O2 Scavenger: Removes dissolved oxygen from drilling and completion fluids, eliminating a potential source of corrosion. Improves thermal stability of polymers by a margin of 20°F (11.1°C). Suitable for use in freshwater and mono-valent brines.

  

Lubricants

 

  • Premium Ester base lubricant: Provides a tough lubricating film between the wallcake and drill string, imparts lubrication to the bearing surfaces, reduce torque & drag experienced in highly deviated, horizontal & extended‐reach wells. Suitable in all water base fluids and has temperature stability up to 350°F.
  • Glass Beads: Solid lubricant Spherical glass beads.

  

Spotting Fluids&Surfactants

 

  • Spotting Fluid: Stuck pipe liberator, Unweighted
  • Drilling Detergent: Surface tension reducer to prevent balling, drop sand & emulsify oil

  

Oil Based Mud Products

 

  • Filtration Control Agent: Asphaltic resin, Filtration control Additive
  • PW OB: Primary Emulsifier& Wetting Agent provides excellent emulsion stability, secondary wetting, filtration control and contamination-resistance of oil mud system.
  • SE OB: Secondary Emulsifier provides excellent emulsion stability, secondary wetting, filtration control and contamination-resistance of oil mud system.

  

Corrosion Inhibitors& Anti-Foam

 

  • Corrosion Inhibitor for Drilling: Provides excellent corrosion inhibition from Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide and Hydrogen Sulfide gases during drilling, for the downhole tubular and associated surface equipment up to 300°F. Compatible with all types of water base mud.
  • Corrosion Inhibitor for Completion: It controls corrosion of tubing & casing strings when used in workover & packer brines including sodium chloride, calcium chloride, sodium bromide, calcium bromide & zinc bromide. Provide protection at bottom hole temperature up to 300°F.
  • Anti-Foam: Surface tension reducer (Silicate and Alcohol Based)
