Performance, Quality and Reliability
Minerals play an important role in the oil well drilling and gas industry by providing key materials necessary for the drilling process and the production of oil and gas.
Products like Barytes, Bentonite, Calcite Powder, and Limestone, your business is crucial to the oil well drilling sector. These minerals are used in the production of drilling fluids, which play a critical role in borehole drilling.
Barytes, also known as barite, is used in the oil well drilling sector as a weighting agent in drilling fluids. It provides the necessary density to prevent the formation of cracks in the borehole and to stabilize the drilling process.
Bentonite is used in the oil well drilling sector as a viscosifier and fluid loss control agent. It forms a thick, viscous fluid that helps to transport drill cuttings to the surface and reduces fluid loss into the surrounding rock formations.
Some minerals like Silica sand act as a proppant in hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking. The proppant holds the fractures open, allowing oil and gas to flow to the surface.
Limestone is used in the oil well drilling sector as a weighting agent in drilling fluids. It provides the necessary density to prevent the formation of cracks in the borehole and to stabilize the drilling process.
The oil industry heavily relies on high-quality minerals that enhance the performance of their drilling fluids, reduce production costs, and improve drilling efficiency.
Oil purification
Minerals are often used in the oil purification industry as filtration media and adsorbents to remove impurities and contaminants from oil. Different types of minerals are used depending on the specific application and the type of contaminants that need to be removed.
Some minerals have the ability to absorb impurities, making it useful in removing suspended solids and other contaminants from crude oil. Other minerals aid in oil centrifuges because of its high porosity and ability to trap fine particles.
Some are used in oil filtration to remove impurities such as sulfur, chlorine, and other organic compounds while others are used in oil refining to remove impurities such as sulfur and nitrogen compounds.
A special group of minerals are useful in removing suspended solids and other contaminants from crude oil.
