General Information
Protect your formation from fluid invasion, protect your drilling fluid from thief zones and protect your AFE from unnecessary losses. Remedy AS™ has been developed by the experts in seepage loss control and loss circulation additives at enventives. Remedy™ incorporates the revolutionary Quick2Mix™ technology in order to supply an improved easy to mix single sack solution for partial to severe loss of returns. Remedy AS™ is engineered to provide a precise variation of particle types and sizes that maximize the sealing of formations prone to loss circulation. A large percentage of the product is acid soluble for ease of cleanup and the Remedy AS product is designed with protection of producing zones in mind. In formations or fluids where a spike in pH may cause concern or wellbore issues Remedy AS™ is your go to product for prevention or remediation of whole fluid loss.
General Information
Remedy AS™ may be utilized in all fluid types and applications. Remedy AS™ has been specifically developed as a simplified treatment consisting of an engineered combination of bridging and sealing agents, many of which are acid soluble, in an easy to mix single sack designed to pre treat the drilling fluid system to minimize seepage loss and whole fluid loss prior to drilling known thief zones such as depleted sands, fractured formations or vugular formations. In the instances when pre trating of the drilling fluid is not successful sweeps and pills may be necessary to mitigate losses.
General Information
In extereme cases Remedy AS™ may be pumped ahead of a Quick-Squeeze™ treatment to maximize plugging effects. Lost circulation and wellbore breathing are caused from drilling fluid invading the formation as a result of either hydraulically induced fractures or highly permeable formations such as natural fractures, vugs and faults. Remedy AS™ seals the welbore fractures and isolates the fracture tips resulting in a stonger and more stable wellbore. Remedy AS™ provides an effective solution for partial to severe loss circulation. The recommended Plan A of pre-treating the active mud system in anticipation of known thief zones has prevented the need to apply Remedy AS™ in its Plan B pill and sweep application in response to initial signs of lost circulation. Adding Remedy™ to your drilling fluid program is a formula for success. In accordance with best practices pilot testing is recommended to ensure compatibility.
Benefits
Reduce drilling non-productive time due to lost circulation.
Pre-Mixed Blend containing a large percentage of acid soluble particle types and sizes.
Can be used in conjuction with other enventives LCM products. Can be spotted or pumped ahead of Quick-Squeeze™ applications in extreme loss circulation instances.
Recommendations
25-100 bbl sweeps with 15-60 lb/bbl of Remedy AS™ have been highly successful in the prevention and remediation of whole fluid losses.
4-10 lb/bbl treatments of the active fluid system have been successful in the elimination or reduction of whole fluid loss to theif zones while promoting strong thin filter cakes and enhancing the hoop stress of the weak formations.
Due to variations in base oils and synthetic base oils and the effects on barite, pilot testing is highly recommended to determine precise formulations. Slurries that become to thick should have up to 1.0 bbl of of wetting agent added to aid in thinning the slurry.
