Details
Highlights
- Successfully and predictably reduces the control fluid density
- Prevents or minimizes fluid loss/lost circulation and formation damage
- Incompressible and more homogeneous control fluid properties compared with foamed and aerated systems
- Eliminates the need for specialized equipment used in foamed and aerated systems
- Thermal conductivity reduction
- Temperature resistance
- Chemical stability and inertness
3M™ Glass Bubbles HGS19K46 are hollow microspheres made of soda-lime borosilicate glass with a true density of 0.46 g/cm³ and an isostatic crush strength of 19,000 psi / 1310 bar.
HGS19K46 Glass Bubbles are designed for use in drilling, completion, and workover fluids, as well as in cement slurries for use in deep and ultra deep wells in the oil and gas industry.
