    saa6383
    Calcium chloride liquid is a brine made from calcium chloride salt that is used as a soluble weighting agent in brine and workover fluids up to a density of 11.67 lb/gal. It is also used to provide osmotic control in non-aqueous fluids and to stabilize reactive clay formations. Calcium chloride brine has advantages of being readily available, having high purity, and being economically viable for common oil field usage.

    Calcium Chloride Brine

    Product
    Description

    Calcium chloride liquid, CaCI2 is brine made from dry calcium chloride
    salt and is used in completion workover, gravel packing, perforating and
    packer fluids in a range of densities to 11.67 lb/gal (1398 kg/m3). Calcium
    chloride is also widely used as the internal phase in non-aqueous fluids.

    Applications/
    Functions

    Calcium chloride is used as soluble weighting agent in brine and


    workover fluids to a density of 11.67 lb/gal (1398 kg/m3). It is also used to
    provide osmotic control in non aqueous fluids, to stabilise reactive clay
    formations, as a cement accelerator and as a source of calcium in calcium
    inhibitive systems.

    Common oil field usage.

    As a brine Calcium chloride can be used to formulate single salt brines


    to 11.67 lb/gal (1398 kg/m3) or in combination with other salts to form
    brines of the required density. The most common combination is with
    calcium bromide brines to densities up to 15.1 lb/gal (1812 kg/m3) SG).
    For details of concentrations required check brine tables. In non aqueous
    fluids, treatments will depend on the required degree of osmotic activity
    required.

    Limitations

    1.398 max

    The use of Calcium chloride may be restricted by local HSE rules.


    If combined with monovalent salts it may cause precipitation in
    solution.
    Compatibility with work over chemicals should be confirmed prior to
    use.
    Compatibility with various rubber drilling components should be
    confirmed prior to contact.
    The crystallisation point of brines must be carefully checked to ensure
    they are not too low.

    Consult MSDS before use and use personal protective equipment as


    advised.

    Calcium chloride brine is available in bulk.
