Description
Potassium Formate is used to make high density and solids-free formate brine in the operations of water based drilling, completion, workover and fracturing.
|
Application & Features
Formate brine make non-corrosive drilling and completion fluid formations that is stable in HTHP operations.
Formate brine stabilizes shales, extend polymer stability and enhance borehole stability.
Formate brine improves well productivity with excellent compatibility at reservoir conditions with reservoir fluids.
Formate brine offers better hole cleaning and increases circulation rates by providing optimum hydraulic flow.

Packaging
Liquid material is packed in 55 USG (208 liters) HDPE drum containing 300kgs net or 1000 liters IBC containing 1570kgs net.
Solid material
is packed in 25kgs sacks.
Store in corrosion resistant containers and keep closed and firmly sealed. It is concentrated hygroscopic salt solution which will absorb water from the air, reducing density if not properly stored. |
MSDS - Material Safety Data Sheet is available upon request.
