- Acid-soluble bridging agents
- Added to brine based drilling fluids or pills to assure
temporary bridging and sealing of lost circulation zones
DESCRIPTION
Sluggits are blends of sized calcium
carbonates. The Sluggit products (Sluggit, Sluggit CM,
Sluggit Plus) have a wide distribution of
particle sizes suitable for bridging and sealing productive
formations or sand control screens. Sluggits are packaged in 50 lb or 25 kg
sacks.

BASE FLUIDS
Sluggits may be used in any water-based
or oil-based systems.
APPLICATIONS
Sluggits are added directly to any
pre-mixed system. They are effective in high loss situations where
superior sealing characteristics are required. Under these
conditions, 25-75 lb/bbl of the appropriate particle sizes, should
be added to a concentrated slurry.
