Weighting Material
Data Sheets
BAROID 41 weighting material is a specially processed barite in powder form for use as a drilling fluid weighting additive. BAROID 41 weighting material has a specific gravity of 4.1 and can be used to increase the density of drilling fluids up to 21 lb/gal (2.40 SG).
Applications and Functions
- Helps increase drilling fluid density up to 21 lb/gal
- Helps control formation pressures
- Helps stabilize the borehole
Advantages
- High quality, free from corrosive and abrasive material
- Chemically inert
- Cost-effective weighting agent
