Lost Circulation Material

Drilling Fluids – Lost Circulation Material

Marquis Alliance provides various proven products to be added to drilling fluids that are being lost to the formations downhole.  Lost Circulation Material is provided in many shapes and material types.  Marquis Alliance knows how to keep costs associated with lost circulation from spinning out of control. Our products and solutions give operators cost-effective ways to respond to complete or partial lost circulation prompted by hydrostatic or annular pressure loss from natural or induced causes.

    Frac Squeeze

    Frac Squeeze is a complete loss of returns material containing high fluid loss with a large PSD of unique bridging and sealing agents. It is designed to be squeezed into a thief zone forming a solid plug reducing well bore stress. Some advantages include: Replaces costly cement squeezes, Can be used in water, Oil base and synthetic muds, Prevents sidetracking of the well bore and can be cleaned up with an acid treatment.

    FRAC-ATTACK®

    FRAC-ATTACK® is the original, complete “LOST CIRCULATION PILL ON A PALLET”. A fast-acting dewatering action is instigated by pressure exerted by (1) a column of fluid above, followed by (2) a staged squeeze pressure applied to the pill. This deposits a solid sealing “plug” into and across the loss zone, as the liquid phase, consisting of a highly inhibitive calcium based fluid, is quickly de-watered into the formation.

    Vanguard

    Vanguard is a unique packaged blend of inorganic sealants and bridging agents used as an innovative approach to the initial response to lost circulation.

  • Clearex

    Clearex is a blend of various polymers and fluid-loss control additives.

  • Enviro-Plug #8

    Enviro-Plug #8 is a high-swelling Wyoming Bentonite in granular form. The unique molecular structure allows it to absorb five times its weight of water and swell to a volume of 12-16 times its dry bulk, making it an ideal sealant. Applied dry or in a pumped slurry, these fine granules expand against casings and formations to create a very low permeability flexible grout seal.

  • Enviro-Plug Medium

    Enviro-Plug Medium is the first bentonite chip developed and marketed. It is pure Wyoming Bentonite, designed for use as a sealant for hole abandonment, casing seals or any vertical seal to prevent water movements up or down a borehole. When absorbing water Enviro-Plug Medium swells to fill voids, exerting pressure against all surfaces to create a flexible low permeability seal. Since Enviro-Plug is introduced in a “dry” state, shrinkage cannot occur and there is a reserve expansion capacity. Generally, hydration takes 1-2 hrs.

  • EZ Seal

    EZ Seal is an easily mixed granular bentonite product intended as a plugging material.

  • Fiber Fluid

    Fiber fluid is a finely milled seepage control and lost circulation additive that is an effective sealing and bridging agent for depleted sands. Fiber fluid exhibits superior acid solubility among cellulosic lost circulation materials and very good return permeability results

  • G&S 2000F

    G&S 2000F is a proprietary MULTI-BLEND product designed to plug lost circulation zones with fine to medium fractures. G&S 2000 F is easily mixed with conventional rig equipment. G&S 2000 F is a blend of plant fibers, modified polysaccharide, and industrial carbon

  • Graphite

    Graphite has a greasy feel and very low coefficient of friction. Chemically, Graphite is the pure form of carbon.

  • Kwik-Seal

    Kwik-Seal is an engineered blend of particles which contains high strength granules, flakes and fibers with a definite particle size distribution. Seals effectively under both high and low differential pressure conditions. Is equally effective in unconsolidated formations and fractures or vugs in hard formations.

  • Magma Fiber

    Magma Fiber is a specially formulated acid soluble, extrusion spun mineral fiber for lost circulation problems. Magma Fiber is 97.3% soluble in a 7.5% HCL acid.

  • Maxi-Seal

    Maxi-Seal is a blend of lost circulation materials specifically formulated to cover a wide range of situations common in the occurrence of lost circulation. The two grades, Medium, and Coarse, contain a blend of granules and fibers, which act as bridging and sealing agents.

  • Mica

    Mica or Muscovite is a lost circulation material supplied in three grind sizes, Fine, Medium, and Coarse.

  • Nutshell

    A lost circulation material of ground Nutshell is available in three grades, Fine, Medium, and Coarse, ranging in size from 100 mesh to 6 mesh.

  • OSR

    Sized oil-soluble bridging material. Sized oil-soluble resins with increasing median particle diameter by ascending product name. Soluble in produced crude or diesel.

  • Pol-E-Flake

    Pol-E-Flake is a blend of multi-sized colored flakes of polycellulose. The range of flake sizes are from 1/4” - ⅜” (6.4mm - 9.5mm) with a specific gravity of 1.0.

  • Poly Seal

    Poly Seal is a blend of multi-sized colored flakes and shredded strands of polycellulose and polyethylene materials. The range of flake/shred sizes are from 1/4” - ⅜” (6.4mm - 9.5mm) with a specific gravity of approximately 1.0.

  • Prima-Seal

    Prima-Seal is a blend of lost circulation materials specifically formulated to cover a wide range of situations common in the occurrence of lost circulation. The two grades, Medium, and Coarse, contain a blend of granules and fibers, which act as bridging and sealing agents.
