FLUID LOSS - CALCULATION -
Converts FL in any time to FL / 30
min.
30 min
cc' s /( x) min × = cc' s / 30 min
( x) min
z Types of Permeability
z Vertical Fracture Permeability - Limestones,
Chalks, and Some Shales
z Matrix Permeability - Sand or Sandstone
SORTING
GOOD POROSITY
AND PERMEABILITY
POOR SORTING
MUCH LOWER
POROSITY AND
PERMEABILITY
FILTER CAKE QUALITY
100 ppb Diaseal-M (2.6 sg) X( 8.334 ppg) X (42 gal / bbl) = 910 ppb
9.1 ppb = 1.0%
100 ppb = 11.0%
100 ppb Barite (4.2 sg) X( 8.334 ppg) X (42 gal / bbl) = 1470 ppb
14.7 ppb = 1.0%
100 ppb = 6.8%
z Microscopic One -
Celled Marine Algae
With Hard Glasslike
Cell Walls.
50 ppb Barite (4.2 sg) X( 8.334 ppg) X (42 gal / bbl) = 1470 ppb
14.7 ppb = 1.0%
50 ppb = 3.4%
13.5 ppb M-I Gel (2.6 sg) X( 8.334 ppg) X (42 gal / bbl) = 910 ppb
9.1 ppb = 1.0%
13.5 ppb = 1.5% Solids
2. Add 100 grams of Diaseal-M and 100 grams of Barite to 350 cc’s of
water.
z 11.0 + 6.8 = 16.8% Total Solids

SOLIDS CONTROL -
HOW?
z Solids Generated While Drilling.
z 17.5” hole to 3,000’= 900 bbls
z 12.25” hole from 3,000’ to 10,000’ = 1,030 bbls
z 9.875” hole from 10,000’ to 16,000’ = 570 bbls
z TOTAL = 2,500 bbls of Dirt to Remove!
z THEN:
z (2.6sg) X (8.334ppg) X (42gpb) X (2,500bbls) =
z 2,276,820 Pounds of Dirt! (1,138tons)

Choosing Fluid Loss
Control Products
z FACTORS TO CONSIDER:
z Can it be used in presence of CALCIUM?
z Can it be used in high SALT
concentration?
z Can it tolerate the TEMPERATURE
present, or expected?
z Will it need a PRESERVATIVE?
Choosing Fluid Loss
Control Products
z FACTORS TO CONSIDER:
z Will it produce a VISCOSITY RISE?
z Will it SUPPORT WEIGHT MATERIAL
with a minimum of solids?
z Is the COST too high for the particular
operation?
z Is it the MOST EFFICIENT under given
circumstances?
