BaraXcel® and BaraECD® non-aqueous fluid (NAF) systems challenge the technical limits to take you further
talk to an expertDrilling operators continue to push technical and operational limits. BaraXcel and BaraECD non-aqueous fluid systems are formulated to deliver advanced performance as you drill new depths. Drilling risks may include narrow pressure windows, high overbalance pressure, extended reach drilling, wide temperature ranges, barite sag, complex completions, and downhole losses.
Halliburton uses the Drilling Fluids Graphics (DFG™) hydraulics modeling software to customize the BaraXcel and BaraECD systems to meet or exceed your operational goals.
The objectives are to reduce or eliminate non-productive time (NPT), decrease your total cost of operations, and increase production.
For more than 20 years, BaraXcel and BaraECD NAF systems have enabled global operators to drill more than 5,500 well sections.
High performance means drilling fluids designed to deliver maximum protection and performance for the wellbore and reservoir. High-performance NAFs (organophilic clay-free) have a rheological profile designed to provide low and controlled ECDs and allow for greater wellbore stability.
