C2.1 Fluid testing procedures


C2.1.1 Introduction
Most of the standard API testing procedures for
brines [1] and water-based drilling fluids [2] are
valid for formate-based fluids. There are, however,
a few tests that should not be used in formate
brines and alternative, formate-specific methods
have been developed by Cabot Specialty Fluids
(CSF). Table 1 lists the standard API tests, specifying
those recommended for formate fluids and those
that are not. Full description of the methods that
are unique to formate fluids or modified for use
with formate fluids are given below.
C2.1.2 pH
The pH of formate drilling fluid filtrate or completion
brine should always be measured on a
sample diluted with nine parts deionized
water as undiluted samples give erroneous
results (see Section A6 pH and Buffering). pH of
this diluted brine is best measured with a glass
electrode pH meter (see Section A6 pH and
Buffering). pH paper can be used, but generally
gives a less accurate pH reading. A handheld pH
meter, Hanna Instruments Waterproof Handheld
pH / Temp probe HI 98128, was tested by Cabot
Specialty Fluids and found to give very reliable pH
measurements in diluted (1:9) formate brines. If the
pH reading is used to calculate buffer concentration
(see C2.1.7) it is important that a reliable, calibrated
pH meter is used.

C2.1.3 Density
The density of formate fluids can be measured
using one of three devices: pressurized mud
balance, hydrometer, or digital densitometer.
The pressurized mud balance should be used for
formate drilling fluids and preferably the digital
densitometer, or alternatively the hydrometer, for
formate brines and filtrates.
Pressurized mud balance procedure:
Place mud balance on bench. Place fluid to be
measured in a beaker, and stir if appropriate.
Slowly add fluid to the cell until the fluid is
approximately half way between the indicator
line and the edge of the cell. The aim is that
some fluid should spill out of the valve.
Put the cap in place and rotate it until firmly
seated.
Wash or wipe any residual fluid from the outside
of the cup.
To clean the pressurizing plunger (syringe), fill it
with fluid from the beaker and expel the fluid. Fill
the plunger again and use this fluid to pressurize
the cup. Hold the pump firmly. While pressure is
applied, gently pull the pump upwards to force
the valve out of the screw cap. Ideally, no fluid
should leak out of the valve at this stage.
Wash off excess fluid and dry the balance.
Place the system on the fulcrum and adjust to
achieve balance. Read off the density.
Using the pump, push down the valve so that it
is immersed again.
Disconnect the whole system (the pump might

Switch the instrument on by pressing and holding
the ESC key.
The instrument is normally set to measure specific
gravity (g/cm3) automatically. The instruments
manual provides information on how to display
alternative density units.
To calibrate the instrument use distilled water, or
preferably, the density standards supplied with
the instrument.
Insert the sampling tube into the standard.
Press the FILL button.
Press the OK / MEAS button to start the

If the displayed result is <0.9995 or >1.0005 then
adjust the instrument using the instructions in
the manual.
Repeat the above procedure with a sample,
always recording the temperature at the time of
the measurement.
To clean the instrument, press the DRAIN button,
fill the measuring cell with a suitable solvent and
drain again. Repeat until the cell is clean.
Switch the instrument off by pressing and
holding the ESC key for two seconds.
The corrected density (at 15.6C / 60F) can be
calculated using the method described below.
Calculation of corrected density
Once the density and actual temperature have
been measured, the corrected density at standard
conditions (15.6C / 60F) can be calculated.
Complete PVT data exists for diluted single-salt
potassium formate brines, and for potassium
cesium formate brine blends. There are three ways

of utilizing these data for calculating density at


standard conditions:
1. Use DensiCalc II software, available free
from Cabot Specialty Fluids. This method gives
the most accurate results.
2. Use tables for corrected density (Table 3 to
Table 14). The corrected fluid density can be
found in the cell where the measured density
and measured temperature intercept.
3. Use the following simplified formula:

ST = (0.001071 TM) + (1.0057723 M ) - 0.03 (1)

where
ST = density at 15.6C / 60F
M = measured density
TM = measured temperature in C
Example:
M = 2.095
TM = 37C
ST = (0.001071 37) + (1.0057723 2.095) - 0.03 = 2.1167
Calculation of effective density
The effect of temperature and pressure on the
density of the fluid in the well must be calculated in
order to provide the required equivalent static
density (ESD). This is best achieved using the
DensiCalc II software, freely available from
Cabot Specialty Fluids. Calculating the effective
density manually is complex and gives a slightly
different result due to rounding errors.
For formate brines, the temperature effect on
density is much greater than the pressure effect.
Therefore, as a rule of thumb, Table 2 can be used
for reducing density from the corrected density.
Remember this is a rough guide only and is
affected by well type, such as deep water wells
where the temperature profile is influenced by
seawater cooling of the riser.

C2.1.4 Solids analysis of formate fluids


Warning never run a retort test
on a formate fluid!

The standard API retort test should never be used


with formate fluids because the condensation
chamber of the standard retort could get plugged
with salt crystals causing the retort to burst. Even if
the retort test could be performed safely, results are
invalid since most solids are formed from formate
salts crystallizing out of the highly concentrated
brines.
Solids in a formate mud generally comprise of
drilled solids and calcium carbonate bridging solids
(no weighting material is required in formate muds).
Based on this, an alternative solids analysis
procedure is detailed here.
Calcium carbonate
A method has been developed to test for calcium
carbonate weighting material in formate fluids.
The method, which is based on the standard API
total hardness (Ca2+, Mg2+) method, involves
removing the carbonate component as carbon
dioxide by lowering the pH. The method
determines the combined calcium carbonate and
magnesium carbonate concentrations, which
means that any dolomite-type weighting material is
also determined. The method is as follows:
Add 1 mL formate drilling fluid to a 100 mL
volumetric flask.
Add 9 mL 2N/5N hydrochloric acid.
Agitate gently to ensure all the calcium
carbonate has dissolved.
Fill the volumetric flask to the 100 mL line with
deionized water and shake.
Take a 10 mL sample from the volumetric flask
and place in a smaller conical flask or beaker.
Add 0.5 mL 8N potassium hydroxide (KOH).
Check that the pH is at 14 with pH paper and
add more potassium hydroxide, if required.
Add Calver 2 Indicator and titrate with EDTA
(0.01 M), recording the volume of EDTA required
to change from red to blue.
The calcium carbonate concentration can be
calculated as:

FORMAT E

T EC HNI C AL

MANUA L

Example:
If EDTA titration = 5 mL, then the calcium carbonate
concentration would be 50 g/L (since the chemical
analysis was performed using 10 mL of the 100 mL
prepared sample).
Drill solids
The amount of drill solids in the mud is calculated
by determining the total solids in the mud (lowgravity solids comprising drill solids and calcium
carbonate), and then subtracting the calcium
carbonate portion. The low-gravity solids in the
mud can be calculated by measuring the mud and
filtrate densities, using the following equation:
LGS (%v) = mud-filtrate 100 (4)
LGS-filtrate
where
mud = density or s.g. of mud
filtrate = density or s.g. of filtrate
LGS = density or s.g. of low-gravity solids
The density of the mud is measured using a
pressurized mud balance (see C2.1.3) and the
density of the mud HPHT filtrate is measured using
either the densitometer or a 5 mL gravity bottle. If a
density bottle is used, the bottle is first weighed
empty, then filled with filtrate and re-weighed. The
density is calculated from the difference between
the two weights divided by the filtrate volume,
which is inscribed on the gravity bottle. The
temperatures are also measured and the densities
are corrected to standard temperature (15.6C / 60F)
using DensiCalc II. By assuming that the density
of the low-gravity solids is 2.5 g/cm3 / 20.86 lb/gal,
the low-gravity solids concentration in the fluid can
be calculated as:
METRIC UNITS
CLGS (g/L) = 25 LGS (%V) (5)
FIELD UNITS
CLGS (lb/bbl) = 8.76 LGS (%V) (6)
and the drill solids concentration is calculated as
follows:
CDS = CLGS - CCaCO3 (7)

CCaCO3 (g/L or kg/m3) = 10 VEDTA(mL) (3)

where CDS, CLGS, and CCaCO3 are concentrations of


drill solids, low gravity solids, and calcium carbonate
respectively. This equation is valid for all density units.

CCaCO3 = CaCO3 concentration (kg/m3 or g/L)

any significant amounts as they precipitate out with


the carbonate buffer component. If total hardness is
measured in an unbuffered formate fluid or in a
formate fluid where the buffer could have been
consumed, then the standard API method cannot
be used directly because the oxidizing agent,
hypochlorite, rapidly oxidizes the formate. If such a
test is required, the API method should be modified
to omit this step. Cabot Specialty Fluids recommends
the following modified method for determining
hardness in formate brine or filtrate:

The concentration of Ca2+ and Mg2+ can be


calculated as:
CCa2+ + CMg2+ (mol/L) = VEDTA (mL) (8)
100
The equivalent weight of calcium that this
corresponds to (total hardness as calcium) is:
CCa2+ (mg/L) = 400 x VEDTA (mL) (9)
where:
VEDTA = Volume 0.01M EDTA (mL)
C2.1.6 Calcium (Ca2+)
In a formate fluid containing carbonate / bicarbonate
pH buffer, it is unnecessary to check for calcium
levels as calcium cannot be present. If one wants to
measure calcium concentration in an unbuffered
formate fluid or in a formate fluid where the buffer
could have been consumed, then the standard API
method cannot be used directly because the
oxidizing agent, hypochlorite, rapidly oxidizes the
formate. Cabot Specialty Fluids recommends the
following modified method for determining hardness
in a formate brine or filtrate:
Add 1 mL formate brine or filtrate to a 100 mL
volumetric flask.
Fill the volumetric flask to the 50 mL line with
deionized water and shake.
Add sodium or potassium hydroxide solution
to bring the pH up above 14.

of EDTA required to change from red to blue.
The molar concentration of calcium can be

to 1,000 mL with distilled water) and swirl to mix.
Add sufficient hardness indicator (e.g. Calmagite
or equivalent) (2 to 6 drops) and mix. A wine-red
color develops if calcium and / or magnesium is /
are present.

C2.1.7 Dissolved carbonate and
bicarbonate (pH buffer) content
For standard water-based mud filtrates, API RP
13B-1 [1] recommends that carbonate and
bicarbonate content are measured by pH titrations.
Alkalinity in the form of carbonate content,
bicarbonate content, and hydroxide content is
determined by the combination of a phenolphthalein
titration with an endpoint of pH = 8.2, and a methyl
orange titration to an endpoint of pH = 3.1.
In formate brines, the determination of the methyl
orange titration endpoint is complicated by the
formate / formic acid equilibrium present at
pH = 3.75 (explained in Section A6). The fact that
only one of the two standard titration endpoints can
be determined in a formate brine means that the
standard API alkalinity test method is unsuitable
for determining carbonate and bicarbonate
concentrations in formate fluids.
Laboratory testing of formate brines with known
additions of carbonate and bicarbonate has shown
that pH of buffered formate brines is dependent on
the carbonate-to-bicarbonate ratio (see Section A6
pH and Buffering).The following relationship, R, has
been found between the carbonate and bicarbonate
molar ratio and the brine fluid pH:
R=

[CO32-](mol/L)
[HCO3-](mol/L)

= A exp (B pH)

(12)

where
A = 3.894 10-10
B = 2.193
and [CO32] and [HCO3-] are the molar concentrations
of carbonate and bicarbonate. This relationship,
shown in Figure 1, is valid for pH measured with a

glass electrode in formate brine diluted with nine


parts deionized water.

Carbonate and bicarbonate levels can also be


determined on a weight / volume basis:

This relationship can be used to determine the


molar ratio of the buffering components, carbonate
and bicarbonate. This means that both carbonate
and bicarbonate concentrations can be determined
just by measuring pH and performing the standard
phenolphthalein titration to determine the carbonate
concentration. The method is as follows:

CCO32- (mg/L) = 60,000 [CO32-] (mol/L)

1. Prepare a sample consisting of 5 mL fluid


sample (brine or mud filtrate) and 45 mL
deionized water.
2. Measure pH of the sample using a calibrated
glass electrode.
3. Perform a titration to pH = 8.2 with 0.02 N HCl or
H2SO4 and report the phenolphthalein alkalinity pf
as the volume, V (mL), titrant required per mL of
fluid sample (brine or mud filtrate):
Pf = V(mL)/5

(23)

CCO32- (kg/m3) = 60 [CO32-] (mol/L)

(24)

CCO32- (lbs/bbl) = 21.03 [CO32-] (mol/L) (25)


CHCO3- (mg/L) = 61,000 [HCO3-] (mol/L) (26)

CHCO3- (kg/m3) = 61 [HCO3-] (mol/L)

(27)

CHCO3- (lbs/bbl) = 21.38 [HCO3-] (mol/L) (28)


where
CCO32- = CO32- concentration CHCO3- = HCO3- concentration
or as sodium or potassium carbonate and
bicarbonate (valid for any weight / volume unit,
e.g. kg/m3, g/L, lbs/bbl):

(13)

Depending on pH, four situations exist:

CK2CO3 (w/vol) = 2.30 CCO32- (w/vol)

(29)

CKHCO3 (w/vol) = 1.64 CHCO3- (w/vol)

(30)

1. pH > 11.1
[CO32-](mol/L) + OH-(mol/L) = 0.02 Pf (14)

CNa2CO3 (w/vol) = 1.77 CCO32- (w/vol)

(31)

[HCO3-] = 0 (15)

CNaHCO3 (w/vol) = 1.38 CHCO3- (w/vol)

Assuming that large amounts of [OH-] have not


been added to this fluid, one can assume that
most of this alkalinity is from carbonate.

where
CK2CO3 = K2CO3 concentration CKHCO3 = KHCO3 concentration

2. pH = 11.1
[OH-] = 0 (16)
[CO32-] (mol/L) = 0.02 Pf (17)
[HCO3-] = 0 (18)
3. 9.0 < pH < 11.1
[OH-] = 0 (19)
[CO32-] (mol/L) = 0.02 Pf (20)

From the carbonate / bicarbonate pH relationship


in equation 12 and Figure 1, determine the
carbonate / bicarbonate molar ratio, R. Calculate
the bicarbonate concentration as:
[HCO3-] (mol/L) = [CO32-] (mol/L) / R (21)

4. pH < = 9.0
[OH-] = 0 (22)

[CO32-] insignificant

[HCO3-] difficult to determine

pH needs to be raised to above 9.0 with OHbefore the bicarbonate level can be determined.

SECTION C2

(32)

CNa2CO3 = Na2CO3 concentration CNaHCO3 = NaHCO3 concentration


When the method is used in the laboratory rather
than the field, a more accurate standard titration
to pH = 8.2 should be applied, instead of the phenolphthalein indicator. Equation 12 can be used to
calculate the bicarbonate concentration directly in a
spreadsheet, rather than determining R from Figure 1.

C2.2 Property maintenance and


adjustment
C2.2.1 Introduction
The essential properties of formate drilling fluids
that need to be monitored and maintained during

Rigsite density monitoring
The method of measuring density and converting
to corrected density is described in Section C2.1.3.
The corrected fluid density should be maintained

Density increase
The weighting agent used for density increases
should be determined according to the following
guidelines:
To increase density due to operational
requirements (no water contamination), use
spike fluid from the heavier formate salt.
To restore density due to water contamination,
powdered formate salt should be used if available.
For cesium / potassium blends it is economically
beneficial to restore the density using both the
salts in the same ratio as in the original blend
rather than just using cesium formate powder.
The volume of water contamination can be
calculated as follows:
METRIC UNITS
Vw = (before - after)
where
Vw

FIELD UNITS
Vw = (before - after)

where
Vw = water contamination volume
Vc = fluid volume after contamination
before = density before contamination, lb/gal
after = density after contamination, lb/gal
The equations are independent of volume units as
long as they are consistent. The output unit is the
same as the input unit.
Example:
A formate brine with an original density of 2.0 g/cm3
is contaminated with water. Density reduces to
1.95 g/cm3 and total volume after contamination is
100 bbl. The volume of water contamination in bbls
can be calculated as:

(33)

water contamination volume


fluid volume after contamination
density before contamination
density after contamination

The equations are independent of volume units as


long as they are consistent. The output unit is the
same as the input unit.

Vw (bbl) = (2.0 - 1.95) 2.0 - 1.0 = 0.05 100 = 5 bbl


For all single-salt brines, the amount of salt required
to adjust density should be calculated using Table 15
to Table 20. To calculate the quantity of salt required,
convert the volume of water contamination to weight:
METRIC UNITS
Wwater (kg) = Vwater (m3) 999

(35)

where
Wwater = weight of water contamination in kg
Vwater = volume of water contamination in m3

And the amount of potassium formate salt required

Wwater = weight of water contamination in lb
Vwater = volume of water contamination in bbl

= 1,529 lbs

Density reduction
The choice of fluid for density reduction is quite
complex. For single-salt brines, density reduction
should be made using water. Lower density formate
brines can be used, but for pure cesium formate brine
the addition of potassium formate has a significant
negative impact on the value of the brine returned.

Example:
In the example above, the 5 bbl of water has a
weight of:
Wwater (lb) = 5 350 = 1,750 lbs
In the appropriate table (Table 15 to Table 20), find
the density required in the first column and read off
the %wt salt from the second column. The weight
of salt required can be calculated as:
METRIC AND FIELD UNIT
Wsalt = Wwater

%wtsalt

100 - %wtsalt

(37)

where
Wsalt = weight of salt required
Wwater = weight of water contamination
The equation is independent of weight units as long
as they are consistent. The output unit is the same
as the input unit.
In order to weigh up blended cesium and potassium
formate brines, use either pure cesium formate
powder or a blend of cesium and potassium
formate powder. If pure cesium formate powder is
used, the single-salt cesium formate brine table
should be used (Table 19 and Table 20). If a blend
of cesium and potassium formate powder is used,
the cesium / potassium formate blending tables
(Table 21 to Table 26) should be used to determine
the %wt potassium, %wt cesium, and %wt water
required. The weight of each salt required is:
WCsFo = Wwater
WKFo = Wwater

%wtCsFo

Example:
For the example used earlier, 5 bbl of water
contamination requires salt to restore the density to
2.0 g/cm3 From Table 21, the amount of cesium
formate powder required for a 2.0 g/cm3 blend is
59.9%wt, the amount of potassium formate powder
is 18.7%wt, and the amount of water is 21.4%wt.
The amount of cesium formate salt required can be
calculated as:
WCsFo = 1,750 lbs

SECTION C2

For formate blends, density reduction should be


made by adding the spike fluid of the lower density
component, for example potassium formate spike
fluid should be used to reduce the density of a
cesium / potassium formate blend. For logistical
reasons, it might be necessary to use water to
dilute blended brines. To calculate the quantity of
lower density fluid (diluent) required use the
following formula:
Vdiluent =
where
Vdiluent =
Vstart =
start =
required =
diluent =

Vstart ( start - required )


( required - diluent )

(40)

diluent volume
start volume
start density
required density
diluent density

The equations are independent of units as long as


they are consistent. The output unit is the same as
the input unit.
Solids
Solid weighting agents can be used to increase the
density of formate drilling fluids, but in emergency
situations only. The presence of solid weighting
material not only reduces the value of the returned
brine, but it will have a negative impact on the
fluids properties.
C2.2.3 Contamination
Like all well construction and intervention fluids,
formate brines can become contaminated with
various soluble and insoluble substances during use.
These contaminants should be treated as follows.
Calcium and magnesium
A formate fluid containing a carbonate / bicarbonate
pH buffer system does not contain any soluble
calcium or magnesium ions. This is because these
ions precipitate out with the buffer and form
calcium or magnesium carbonate as soon as they
enter the buffered brine. If at any time the buffer is
consumed, then free calcium or magnesium ions
may be present in the fluid. If calcium or magnesium

1 1 / 1 1

S E C T I O N C : F ormate F ield P rocedures and A pplications

is measured in a buffered formate fluid, then this is


a sure sign that the buffer has been consumed.
Calcium or magnesium contaminants should be
removed and buffer level restored with the addition
of new buffer. The addition of potassium or sodium
carbonate precipitates out calcium or magnesium
as calcium or magnesium carbonate and buffer
levels are restored.
Cement contamination
If a formate fluid gets contaminated with cement,
the buffer might be consumed by precipitation of
calcium carbonate. As cement contamination also
causes pH to rise, cement contamination is best
treated with potassium or sodium bicarbonate. This
precipitates out calcium as calcium carbonate and
at the same time restores pH.
Solids contamination
Over time, formate fluids pick up solid contaminants.
For brine operations, solids should be removed
using conventional filtration.
Formate drilling fluids normally provide excellent hole
cleaning, efficiently removing drilled cuttings from
the hole. The low solids and shear thinning
properties of formate drilling fluids enables solids
control equipment to be run very efficiently. Very fine
shaker screens should be run, once the mud has
warmed and the polymers are fully hydrated.
However, fine shaker screens usually have a relatively
low life expectancy so they need to be monitored
very closely in order to detect and repair tears.
Centrifuges can be very effective at removing drill solids
and should be run if available, although the discharge
must be monitored closely to ensure it is dry.
The dump and dilute method can also be used to
control drill solids, but any cesium formate-based
brines and possibly potassium formate-based brines
should be returned to the plant for reclamation and
must not be discharged.
C2.2.4 pH maintenance
In a formate fluid buffered with carbonate /
bicarbonate, pH is dependent on the state of the
buffer. More specifically, pH is dependent on the
carbonate-to-bicarbonate ratio as shown in Figure 1.
Therefore, if pH changes in the fluid, this is a sign
that the carbonate and bicarbonate concentrations
are changing, so levels of carbonate and bicarbonate
would need to be measured.
Treatment with acid or hydroxide to adjust pH should
not be conducted unless this is the treatment that is
recommended in order to maintain carbonate /
bicarbonate concentrations (see C2.2.5).

FLUIDS

C2.2.5 Carbonate / bicarbonate (buffer)


maintenance
Carbonate and bicarbonate forms part of the
buffering system used in formate fluids and should
always be present in significant quantities if influxes
of acid gas are expected while the formate brine is
static in the hole for extended periods. (See Section
A6 pH and Buffering and C2.1.7.)
During field use, one normally experiences that the
carbonate concentration (buffer capacity) reduces
during use whilst the bicarbonate concentration
either increases or decreases. The following down
hole events can impact on buffer concentrations:
Influx of CO2 gas
The consequences of this event are that the
carbonate concentration decreases whilst the
bicarbonate concentration increases (the
increase in bicarbonate concentration equals twice
the decrease of the carbonate concentration). The
first sign of this is a drop in pH. Another sign is
that a relatively large amount of treatment with
carbonate is required to restore pH.
Influx of divalent ions (e.g. Ca2+ or Mg2+)
The consequences of this event are that both
carbonate and bicarbonate levels decrease. The
whole buffer could be consumed. The first sign
of such an influx is a fast fall in pH after it has
been restored with carbonate.
After such events, in order to restore buffer
capacity and pH, CSF normally recommends
adding more potassium or sodium carbonate. One
should be aware, however, that the addition of
carbonate to restore buffer capacity after significant
influxes of acid gas could lead to a build-up of the
bicarbonate concentration over time, which could
have an adverse effect on certain polymers (e.g.
PAC and xanthan), resulting in high fluid loss,
excessive rheology, or gelling problems. If this is
suspected, pilot testing should be conducted with
potassium or sodium hydroxide additions instead of
potassium or sodium carbonate additions. Such
hydroxide additions restore the carbonate level
(buffer capacity) by converting bicarbonate to
carbonate, simultaneously as bicarbonate concentration lowers. It is imperative that excessive
potassium or sodium hydroxide additions are
avoided because such hydroxide additions can
have an adverse effect on polymers in the fluid.
The plot shown in Figure 2 can be useful in
determining the amount of carbonate and
bicarbonate additions required to maintain
programmed buffer levels and pH in buffered
formate brines.

C2.2.6 Calcium carbonate maintenance
In formate drilling fluids, graded CaCO3 is often
added to help improve filter cake quality and control
fluid loss. Due to the low solids content, formate
fluid systems have a much improved rheology and
reduced ECD compared to solids-weighted
systems. The carefully sized calcium carbonate
bridging particles are designed to seal permeable
formations, providing a means to reduce or even
eliminate seepage losses to the reservoir. Lower
ECDs reduce seepage losses without having to
reduce pump rate or ROP.
However, the product also acts as a weighting
agent and this must be allowed for and included in
density adjustment calculations for the circulating
system and for pre-mixes whenever these additions
are made. The level of CaCO3 may also require
adjustment after shearing, once the properties
have stabilized. Screens as fine as 250 mesh are
likely to be run during formate drilling operations, so
regular monitoring of CaCO3 levels is required and
additions have to be made to the system via
suitably treated active mud or premix additions to
replace larger CaCO3 particles screened out at
the shakers.
C2.2.7 Polymer maintenance
Due to the extra temperature and shear conditions
required to provide effective yield of polymers in
formate brines, formate fluids delivered to the rig
site are thinner and exhibit higher initial fluid loss

PAGE 10

SECTION C2

than programmed. The system must be allowed to


circulate for several hours before assessing the
true level of viscosity and fluid loss, prior to making
any adjustments with suitably treated pre-mix
additions.
Remember, there is a significant time delay
between adding the polymers and realizing
the full effect on fluid properties.
1. Polymers should be added to the formate fluids
slowly through a high shear hopper to facilitate
mixing and to prevent the formation of fisheyes.
2. A reduced quantity of polymers should be added
to the initial mix to prevent blinding of the
shakers on the initial circulation. The additional
polymers can then be added gradually over the
first few circulations.
3. Fine shaker screens should not be used before
the polymers are properly hydrated.

C2.3 Performance enhancement


and problem solving
C2.3.1 ROP enhancement
In HPHT wells, ROP is normally limited by well
control procedures (see Section C3 Drilling Fluid
Applications). However, in very hard rock formations
this is not the case. ROPs achieved with formate
drilling fluids are often substantially higher than with
conventional mud systems. The reasons for this are

V E R SION

1 1 / 1 1

S E C T I O N C : F ormate F ield P rocedures and A pplications

the low level of solids in the system. Maintaining a


low-solids level has two main effects.
1. The higher spurt loss of the low-solids system
equalizes the pressure around cutting, effectively
reducing the chip hold-down pressure.
2. The reduced ECD is beneficial for reducing the
risk of losses and improving flow rates for turbine
power and hole cleaning. For ROP, this reduced
overbalance reduces rock strength and improves
ROP. In the BP Devenick offset core, rock
strength increases dramatically with small
increases in confinement pressure. For Devenick,
the expected pressures were 700 psi for cesium
formate and 1,000 psi for OBM.
In order to maximize ROP it is recommended to allow
the fluid spurt loss to run quite high as long as the
filter cakes are thin. It is beneficial to maintain a low
rheology to maximize pump rates and thereby
maximize turbine or motor power. Minimizing ECD
reduces confinement pressures and therefore
rock strength.
C2.3.2 Hole cleaning and hydraulics
Formate drilling fluids usually exhibit lower ECDs
and gel strengths than conventional drilling fluids.
Low ECDs mean that higher pump rates are
possible, which is critical for effective hole cleaning.
Field experience has confirmed this. If hole cleaning
problems are suspected, a high-vis pill should be
pumped and the shakers monitored for increased
cuttings returns.

FLUIDS

It is imperative that excessive amounts of potassium


or sodium hydroxide are not added. Care should
also be taken as hydroxide additions can cause
damage to polymers in the fluid.
C2.3.4 Foaming
A supply of defoamer should be stocked in the
unlikely event of foaming in the pits, which could
present difficulties when monitoring active
circulating volume. For suitable defoamers, see
Section B5 Compatibility with Additives.
C2.3.5 Erratic gas readings
Electronic gas detectors are often installed on the
rig to monitor hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon
monoxide (CO). In several cases, false alarms have
been reported on this kind of equipment with
formate use.
In high temperature wells, a small amount of
hydrogen gas might be produced as a product of
formate decomposition. This is normal, and not a
concern in itself. One should be aware, however,
that hydrogen gas might set off the alarm on both
H2S detectors and CO detectors. Before relying on
such detectors to measure H2S and CO it is
important to check with the manufacturer of the
instruments whether or not they are sensitive to
hydrogen gas.

Occasionally fluid loss, rheology, and gelling

treatments with potassium or sodium carbonate in
order to restore buffer capacity and pH after influx
of CO2 gas [4]. As mentioned in C2.2.5, the
build-up of bicarbonate in the fluid can have an
adverse effect on certain polymers (e.g. PAC,
xanthan), which could lead to high fluid loss,
excessive rheology, and gelling problems.
