Lost Circulation Material

Product Description

Product Data Sheet

BAROFIBRE lost circulation material is a natural cellulose fiber that can be used effectively in spot pills, sweeps and maintenance treatments with minimal adverse effect on rheology and filtration control properties. The cellulosic material helps decrease the permeability of the wall-cake in all drilling fluid types. BAROFIBRE lost circulation material additions do not interfere with pumping equipment or downhole tools when used in the proper concentration ranges. The material is provided in three size ranges; BAROFIBRE SF, BAROFIBRE and BAROFIBRE C lost circulation material. These materials are compatible with water and non-aqueous based fluids. Helps reduce wallcake permeability and seepage loss Helps seal and bridge depleted sands and microfractures

Typical Properties

Recommended Treatment

1. As a preventive treatment, add 2-10 lb/bbl (5.7-28.5 kg/m). 2. As a slug treatment, add 30-50 lb/bbl (85.6-142.7 kg/m). Note: Water-based fluids treated with BAROFIBRE lost circulation material should be supplemented with a biocide such as ALDACIDE G biocide to control or eliminate potential bacterial contamination. Treatments in excess of 20 lb/bbl (57.1 kg/m) may cause reduction in electrical stability measurements in oil-based systems.
