DESCRIPTION:
EMEC BAR is ground barium sulfate with a range from 4.2 to 4.27
specific gravity; it complies with OCMA specifications DFCD-3.
APPLICATION:
EMEC BAR is used to increase mud weight of any water, oil or invert
drilling fluids. up to 22 lbs./gal (Depending on its S.G)
TECHNICAL INFORMATION:
EMEC BAR is an inert solid and will not react with varied
mud additives or encountered contaminants, the amount needed to
raise the mud density, the mud can be calculated by (based on 4.2
S.G).
1472 (W2-W1)
No of 50 kg EMEC BAR/100 bbl = ________________
35.05-
W2
where :
W1: Initial mud weight in ppg
W2: Desired mud weight in ppg
The mud volume gained due to the addition of EMEC BAR can be figured
out by Table (1).
