Benefits

  • Cures seepage losses and helps remediate lost circulation problems
  • Contains a wide range of graded particles that bridge within a fraction of an inch of the wellbore, thereby creating an efficient seal and eliminating the risks of being scraped or washed off the formation
  • Minimizes differential sticking
  • Passes through screening equipment effectively due to optimized size distribution
  • Mixes easily through the hopper

Application

DynaFiber LCM is compatible with all water- and oil-based drilling fluids. The product is stable for high-temperature applications and is biodegradable and non-toxic.

Treatment Recommendation

DynaFiber Fine
While drilling, the recommended application is 4-8 lb/bbl. In sweeps, use 15-30 lb/bbl in 25-50 bbl of volume.

DynaFiber Coarse
Most effectively used as a pill; 20-40 lb/bbl, along with an equal concentration of DynaFiber fine grade.

DynaFiber materials should be mixed thoroughly into the drilling fluid or with water, then spotted or swept through the loss zone.

NOTE: The most important aspect of combating lost circulation is particle size distribution. Consequently, it is recommended that a combination of materials be added to ensure a good particle size distribution (PSD).
