Losseal Reservoir Fracture

Lost circulation control treatment

minus

Controls severe losses and dissolves without damaging the formation

The Losseal Reservoir Fracture™ lost circulation control treatment is a composite blend of dissolvable fibers and solids designed to effectively control lost circulation during drilling. The Losseal Reservoir Fracture treatment remains stable across a wide bottomhole temperature range and reliably plugs fractures of varying widths. The material lasts long enough to complete the well, then gradually degrades, leaving the formation undamaged and enabling natural fracture production without remedial intervention.

  • Mitigate drilling fluid loss in naturally fractured reservoirs during drilling
  • Sandstone, limestone, and dolomite producing formations
  • Fractured basement drilling
  • Fractured depleted reservoirs
  • Prevents drilling fluid invasion into the reservoir
  • Offers rapid response time for preparation and mixing
  • Reduces NPT while drilling
  • Reduces the time it takes to reach target depth
  • Prevents formation damage
  • Eliminates the need for remedial treatments
