HALLIBURTON INTRODUCES NEW STEELSEAL™ Fine TO REMEDY SEEPAGE LOSSES
DALLAS, Texas - Halliburton Energy Services, through its Baroid Drilling Fluids product service line, has designed a new lost circulation material (LCM) to help remedy the problem of seepage losses in depleted sands. Its STEELSEAL™ Fine LCM is a resilient, angular, dual-composition carbon-based lost circulation material that allows tightly packed particles, under compression in pores and microfractures, to expand or contract without being dislodged by changes in differential pressure.
The STEELSEAL Fine product has the ability to seal porous and microfractured formations and can help control seepage losses and serve as a bridging agent in depleted sands. With an 80 microns or smaller size, this material can penetrate into microfractured zones very effectively.
Not only is the STEELSEAL Fine product environmentally safe, it is easier to mix than traditional LCMs and will not increase or alter rheological properties. Combined with Baroid's regular STEELSEAL lost circulation material, the new STEELSEAL Fine product can help control potentially severe losses and has the flexibility to be effective in synthetic, oil-based, and water-based fluids, by using concentrations up to 110 lb/bbl without plugging drilling equipment.
