A
Technically Advanced LCM
With
Dramatic Performance
|
|
|
|
XP-911
10 lbs/bbl added & hot rolled.
Tested with 190 micron disk @ 250 F
|
 |
|
Dramatic
reduction in fluid loss and with no changes in
viscosity or emulsion stability provides a lower ECD
and the corresponding decrease in wellbore problems.
|
 |
Current rig rates dictate faster drilling because time
is money. XP-911 performs in water base fluids with
equal performance, but oil base drilling fluids are
often more traditional to operators because they drill
faster.
|
Whole mud loss can evaporate the savings. Many bridging
agents alter the rheology, which exacerbates the loss
situation, and often causes water & oil wetting that
creates mushy solids, blinding screens and clogging flow
lines.
|
Now
you can have your cake and eat it too; because XP-911
seals better than any fiber and most graphitic materials
too without changing mud properties.

|
What is it?
Formed with raw
carbon and then scientifically sized to cover a
broad spectrum of micron sizes. It can be used to
seal permeable zones from 10 microns to 190 microns
with equal effect.
|
Why is this important?
Permeable formations are not all one size, but what
about reservoir impairment and acid solubility? Tests
conducted with a major oil company’s recommendation show
zero reservoir impairment. No, it is not acid soluble
and does not need to be, because the particle size is
larger than 5 microns and it is polymeric materials
smaller than 5 microns that cause reservoir damage. We
all know CaCO3 is not the solution whether acid soluble
or not. Massive amounts of CaCO3 will cause reservoir
sealing and acidizing on the Gulf Coast is not always
practical. XP-911 seals without damaging the reservoir,
and it works with downhole motors too. Talk to a Setac
representative and get the whole story.
 Additive
Benefits
Testing in a downhole motor, found XP-911 to be
compatible and not cause any damage, and may act as a
lubricant.
XP-911 will not change the fluid viscosity even with 50
lbs. Per barrel added to any mud. The product is
compatible with any water base and any oil base mud with
equal performance.
XP-911 should be added in 15 lb/bbl sweeps until the
product is seen coming over the shaker. Decrease the
amount in the sweeps until the thief zone stops taking
mud and product quits coming over the shaker screen.
The product is slippery and spills cleaned up as soon as
possible. Any wet product should be removed with an
absorbent material and disposed of by appropriate
regulations.
XP-911 is compatible with any other LCM including fiber
materials.
