RECOMMENDED WORK PRACTICES
INTRODUCTION The following recommended work
practices are intended as general guides respecting the handling of Flosai* dril ling mud grade asbestos (hereafter re ferred to as DMA). We believe that this booklet will be helpful to engineers, superintendents, contractors, foremen and drilling crews in understanding and explaining such procedures. Field tests conducted to date indicaw that the rec ommended work practice; - forth in this booklet, if followed, should result m an employee's 8-hour time-weighted av erage (TWA) exposure being below 0.1 fibers per cubic centimetei of air (Such exposure would be well ht-iow OSHAs currently prescribed limits r ( nvo fibers longer than five micrometers per cubic centimeter of air as an 8-hour timeweighted average exposure and 10 fib ers longer than 5 micrometers per cubic centimeter of air, as a ceiling concentra tion.) However, since field conditions do vary, these recommended work prac tices do not purport to be exclusive, and adherence to these recommended work practices does not guarantee an expo sure level (8-hour TWA) the same as that shown by the aforementioned field tests, nor compliance with applicable federal, state or local health and/or safety laws or regulations.
On October 11. 1978, OSHA issued Program Directive #300-16 which provides uniform inspection and com pliance procedures for medical exam ination requirements of the asbestos standard. The principal actions taken by OSHA in this directive were to clarify the term "exposed to airborne concen trations of asbestos fibers"' and to mdi-
cate the scope and applicability of medical examina tion requirements under the asbestos standards as
follows: a The term ' exposed to airborne concen trations of asbestos fiber..is administratively interpreted to mean exposed to a minimum of 0.1 asbestos fibers longer than 5 micrometers per cubic centimer of air... ' b. Medical examinations will be required for any 7 to 8-hour time-weighted average concentra tion of 0.1 f/cc. or for a greater concentration. We believe that if the following work practices are
followed one might reasonably expect 8-hour TWA exposure levels to be below those specified by OSHA Program Directive #300-16. If. however, there is reasonable cause to believe that airborne asbes tos concentrations exceed 0.1 f/cc greater than five microns on an 8-hour TWA basis, or have peak levels above 0.5 f/cc greater than five microns based on 15-minute sample periods, then the site should be monitored for airborne asbestos, and appropriate action taken as required by applicable safety or health laws and/or regulations.
PRODUCTS AND OPERATIONS DMA is furnished in flake form. Operations to which these work practices apply
include: Shipping, Receiving, Handling, Warehousing, and Storage Additions of DMA to the mud Handling of empty sacks Disposing of empty sacks Disposing of mud
SHIPPING, RECEIVING, HANDLING, WAREHOUSING, AND STORAGE
DMA is furnished in loose or palletized sacks (With palletized DMA, the pallets are sometimes shrink wrapped). The sealed, unopened sacks should be handled by normal warehouse practices.
Precautions must be taken if a sack is broken, torn or punctured. The sack should be sealed with heavy duty tape or placed in a slip-over sack (over-sized, open mouthed bag) to prevent spillage. The slip over sack should be securely sealed, preferably by a twist wire. Any spillage should be cleaned up with a vacuum sweeper equipped with a disposable bag. Unless additional protection is required under ap plicable federal or other regulations, a certified, reusable or single use air purifying respirator should be worn by the person cleaning up. DO NOT BLOW MATERIAL WITH COMPRESSED AIR, NOR DRY SWEEP The material in broken or damaged sacks should be used first. In storing DMA it is recom mended that it be stacked no more than 10 sacks high.
ADDITIONS OF DMA TO THE MUD DMA should be added to the mud in the same
manner as other dry mud additives. The DMA should be added directly to the mud system, preferably by emptying the bag at a unifoTm rate into the hopper of a cone type /et mixer (eductor system). (Figure 1).
Other systems in use are also suitable for the addi tion of DMA, such as an eductor with suction hose attached to withdraw the DMA directly from the bag, or from a drum into which several bags have been emptied. (Figure 2). Care should be used in pouring the DMA into another container to reduce the amount of "fines" generated when air is displaced from the receiving hopper or drum.
In adding DMA to the mud. it is a recommended practice to position oneself so that any air currents present are moving from the individual's back to ward the receiving container, rather than blowing into the face. A light weight streamer or "air sock" above the hopper may be used to determine wind direction (Figure 3).
HANDLING OF EMPTY SACKS After a sack is emptied, it should be discarded in
accordance with current federal regulations. Nor mally. sacks of all types should be carried away for disposal as soon as time permits.
DISPOSING OF EMPTY SACKS Unless an adequate precipitator is attached to the
incinerator, onshore burial or incineration is the pre ferred method of disposing of empty DMA sacks from offshore sites. 00 NOT BURN DMA SACKS WITHOUT A PRECIPITATOR. The empty sacks should be accumulated in sealed impermeable bags until a sufficient number is on hand to require burning or burial.
It is preferable to bury empty DMA sacks onshore. An incinerator with an adequate precipitator can be used. DO NOT BURN DMA SACKS WITHOUT A PRECIPITATOR.
DISPOSING OF MUD When a well is finished, there is usually little or no
DMA left in the mud. Any accepted method of storing the mud for reuse or disposing of it can be used.

HOLEMAKING IDEAS FOR KEY MEN
On June 7, 1972, stringent Federal regulations went into effect on the commercial use of asbestos. We at Montello determined to ascertain how our unique, wet-refined Super Visbestos would perform, in the context of these OSHA regulations, under the widely varying conditions found on drilling rigs.
Four on-site tests and their evaluation have now been completed. Three different forms of our asbestos were checked to determine the effects of fine grinding, coarse grinding (i.e. crushing) and granulating, on air-entrained dust concentrations.
Below is a recap of the more important points from this study. Feel free to contact our Sand Springs office for a complimentary copy of the complete report.
1. All tests were performed using Montello's exclusive wet processed asbestos products. The findings cannot be safely applied to any of the several dry ground products on the market.
2. Fiber counts were highest on fine ground material and lowest on granular material, with coarsely ground (crushed) material falling between these two.
3. Crushed Super Visbestos, which has been used in the field for sev eral years, consistently fell well below the OSHA regulations as to maximum ceiling limit and 8 hour, time weighted average, (TWA).
4. New Granular Super Visbestos, now available in the field at no extra cost, proved to be from 20% to 50% cleaner than Crushed Super Visbestos.
5. Neither form of Super Visbestos exceeded even the much more stringent TWA level which will become effective in 1976.
6. Based on this test series. Super Visbestos in either form offers a safety margin of 5 to 1 or more, in complying with the limits set by the regulations. Therefore, we believe there is no reasonable expectation of exceeding the legal limits, when using Crushed or New Granular Super Visbestos.

SUPER VISBESTOS
(Crushed or New Granular) Wet-refined, chrysot-.j.e asbestos
SPECIAL NOTE ON SAFE USE:
An extensive field study has revealed that SUPER VIS BESTOS (both grinds) offers a 5 to 1 or better safety margin in complying with OSHA health hazard regulations.
Based on this study, Montello believes there is no rea sonable expectation of exceeding the legal exposure limits when using either Crushed or New Granular SUPER VISBESTOS.
Contact our office for a complimentary copy of this de tailed, on-site evaluation, titled "Airborne Asbestos Dust Concentrations in Drilling Fluid Operations."
KOW PACKAGED: Multi-wall paper sacks - 50 pounds each.
FUNCTION: For hole cleaning in any aqueous drilling fluid. Builds quick yield with and without bentonite or attapulgite. Provides a "natural", inexpensive, low-solids drilling fluid for clear water drilling rates.
EFFECT ON DRILLING FLUID PROPERTIES: * Increases carrying capacity. * Improves flow properties. * Used 50/50 with bentonite, synergism gives 3 to 5 times greater yield than dry ground asbestos. * Stabilizes high temperature gelation of bentonite. * Stabilizes salt flocculation of bentonite. * Synergizes with attapulgite for higher yield. * Controls progressive gels.

It's a fact...
Drilled cuttings must be flushed from the hole! Super Visbestos does the job cheaper than anything else! *And we can Prove it for your particular mud system -- Over 20,000,000 pounds have already proven it for others --
* Incidentally, if the asbestos health angle bothers you, we've got a report you need to read.
*Just mail us the "Prove it" card.

Dear Woody:
I understand we sent you a copy of a material safety data sheet on Diaseal if on February 12, 1979* This was our old material safety data sheet. We have recently reformulated Diaseal M and it no longer con tains chrysotile asbestos fiber.
Since the Diaseal M now contains only natural diatomaceous earth and other non-hazardous materials, chrysotile asbestos fiber can be deleted from the section on "Hazardous Mixtures of Other Liquids, Solids or Gases" on the material safety data sheet. All other information is the same.
Very truly yours,

Dear Mr. Kirkland:
New Diaseal M has been markedly improved. It no longer contains asbestos (our last sale of Diaseal M that contained asbestos was in August, 1977). Also, concentrations of new Diaseal M can be added to a high solids-high water loss slurry without causing too high a slurry viscosity: the result is a better slurry for overcoming severe lost circulation. In other words, the standard formulation is adequate in most cases, but when additional new Diaseal M is added, the chance for success, when dealing with severe losses, is improved. There is also the advantage that there is more margin for error by field personnel in mixing a Diaseal M slurry than with the previous product.
New Diaseal M is now being blended at Midland, TX primarily because of labor and governmental agency problems in California, where it was previously blended. Shipment of the components to another site for blending has in creased our costs significantly. Inflation has also increased costs. As a result, the current price of new Diaseal M is $440/short ton*, FOB Midland, TX. However, we have secured a "Mixing in Transit Tariff (MITT)" which will allov; our customers to purchase Diaseal M in 40 ton carload lots for $440/ short ton, FOB Houston. Here's how this works: the components are shipped to Midland, blended and then reloaded for shipment on to Houston at no additional freight cost. This will save our customers additional freight on material needed in the Gulf Coast area. To take advantage of the MITT, the purchase of Diaseal M, FOB Houston will have to be programmed and coordinated, resulting in estimated delivery time of two months. For normal delivery times, it will be necessary to purchase Diaseal M, FOB Midland (20,000# TL minimum).
* All orders are subject to acceptance by Drilling Specialties Company and to the terms and conditions of sale in effect by it at the time of shipment. This price list supersedes all previous price lists of these sales.

While awaiting the MITT, we warehoused some new Diaseal M in the Houston area, at our own expense, in order to introduce the now product. We will no longer do this. We plan to start promoting the sales of new Diaseal M aggressively once more now that the MITT has been allowed. Hence, it may be to your bene fit to order new Diaseal M now for your future needs in the Gulf Coast area.

ORILUNG MUD AD0IT1VES AND CEMENT SYSTEMS
Preshear ng, pelletizsr g improves
asbestos fibers for drilling mud
Asbestos materials used as drilling
mud additives provide one method
of increasing the carrying capacity
and suspending ability of clear fluids,
without sacrificing the high penetra
tion rates possible when using clear
water.
But asbestos products have pre
sented two main problems in the
past--high bulk and slow yield. An
improved asbestos material is now
available which eliminates these two
problems and reduces the cost of
using asbestos as an additive.
By chemically ar.J hydraulically
shearing a top-grade chrysolite as
bestos in a wet process, a high de
gree of .fiber separation is achieved.
Then for convenience, this presheared
material is pelletized.
The process for shearing the as
bestos was developed by Union Car
bide Corp. and is still proprietary.
But the presheared asbestos distributed
as Super Visbcsto by Montcllo, Inc..
Sand Springs, Okla., is said to have
these advantages over asbestos ma
terials now being used in drilling
muds:
It has only about one-half the
bulk. The material is compressed into
pellets about '/a-in. long and '.i-in.
diameter and a given volume con
tains approximately twice the amount
of ashestos as other products now
available.
It yields 8-10 times faster. Until
now. asbestos products have been
sheared on the' location using special
pumps or shearing equipment. This
sometimes requires from ^Kyeral hours,
up to several days. ~r '
It is more effective on a pound-
per-pound basis. Lab and field tests
indicate that the presheared material
gives much better mud properties than
other asbestos products.
The need for a low-solids, low-
viscosuv. and high-carrving capacity
fluid will offer good possibilities for
use of this material. And it will find
application in shallow holes where
mixing nme and money are critical.
The difference. The electron micro
graphs in Fig. 1 show whv the new
material has provided some favorable
results.

usually assays about 7-15% asbestos and the rest is generally serpentine rock.
California c h r y s o t i 1 e (B) is a unique formation in which the as bestos libers arc arranged in a random pattern.
The bonding is basically on a pointto-point contact, and the ore assays about 50% asbestos with some de posits going as high as 60%.
The higher purity and less tightly held bond of this ore makes it very suitable for a hydraulic separation process.
Micrograph (C) represents the fiber structure of California asbestos addi tives that have been dry processed with conventional methods. It 'still contains liber bundles and maintains a considerable amount of linear con tact.
Micrograph (D) shows the presheared asbestos of extremely high purity with up to 98% of the fibers being liberated. Since the fibers arc the material that docs the work in a drilling mud additive, this material is more efficient and economical.
After the separation of the fibers to the point shown in (D). the preshcared asbestos is pelletized for stor age and handling convenience.
Lab and field tests. In lab tests made to evaluate the effectiveness of the preshcared asbestos each material was tested following the same pro cedure.
Five g of the material was added to 350 cc's of distilled water contain ing 3.5 g of common salt. The mix ture was stirred for 10 min and then tested in a Fann v-c meter. Labora tory results are shown in Table 1.
Comparison field tests were also also made on six wells--three using
the presheared material and three using x regular asbestos product--in the Texas Panhandle.
These 7.100-ft wells in the Perryton. Tex. area usually encounter a geologic column something like this: down to 3,000-4,000 ft are redbeds. (silty) dolomite and hydrates, and shale; at approximately 4,000 ft is the Wolfcamp dolomite; and from there to total depth--about 7.200 ft--sheets of shale, lime, and sand are found.
Completions are usuallv made in limestone that exhibits Vanins de grees of fracture.
In the three wells that were drilled with the presheared material, average rotating time per well v a< 180 hr compared to a 242-hf tace for the wells in which rcgt.iai asbestos products were used.
The average number of bits used on the wells using the tegular asbes tos-bentonite mud was 18, compared to 12.33 bits per well on the wells in which the presheared material was _ added to the bentonite mud system.
As far as the mud costs were con cerned. the wells using the preshcared additive averaged about S-t.220 com-

Super
VISBESTOS Viscosifier
.. .Effectively Increases Viscosity ofAll Drilling Fluids
Super Visbestos' viscosifier is a preshoated chrysotiie-asbestos product that can increase the viscosity of all aqueous drilling fluids. Since the product is sheared in the processing plant-not on the rig-users get almost instant liberation of the Individual asbestos fibers in the drilling fluid Thus, the viscosifier effectively allows the fluid to suspend and carry cuttings and barites, providing as much as a 50% reduction in slip velocity. The resuit is higher drill-bit penetration rates plus severed other operating benefits shown in the chart below.
Super Visbestos" viscosifier is a product whose fibers have been fiberated for fast mixing. TJnrvis' viscosifier is a pelletized version of the same product that is free-flowing, minimizes dust, and reckces storage and shipping costs. The pellets break down readily during mixing.
Experience with a Proven Product
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier has a proven record as an additive to drilling fluids. Interviews with operator personnel, drilling-mud engineers, and drilling con tractors show that Super "Visbestos" viscosifier gives 40 to 50% higher yields than regular asbestos addi tives. cfiowlng reductions In materid costs of 25 to 30%. In addition Super "Visbestos" vtscoslfier mixes twice as fast as regular asbestos products.
These reports ciso Incficate that Super "Visbestos" vtscoslfier controls progressive gels and stabilizes the salt flocculation of bentonite. It also synergies wtth bentonite or attapulgite to provide as much as five times higher yield An addition of two or ttvee lbs. of Super "Visbestos" viscosifier has proven to be as effective as 15 lbs. of attapulgite.
Advantages of Super VISBESTOS* Viscosifier in Drilling Fluids
Faster drill-bit penetration rates Better hole deeming with lower annular velocity

How It Works in Drilling Fluids
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier is the only type of asbestos that has all the properties desired in a drilling-fluid additive. It is a chrysolite asbestos that has been presheared in the manufacturing process so that It disperses rapidly in the Add. There is no confusing lag in yield, so that the possibffity of overtreating is minimized.
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier provides high-carrying capacities at low viscosities. At high-pumping rates, this property yields a relatively thin fluid with low vis cosity At low-pumping rates, a thicker fluid with high viscosity is formed.
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier also builds lowsofids fluids with "dear-water" hydraulics. These ftjids are stable at high temperatures so that there is no gelation.
How It is Used___________________
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier can be added to the drilling fluid at the mud pump suction or through the mud hopper. Generally, two to four lbs are added per barrel of drilling fluid.
As a sweep to avoid fill-up during trips of the drill pipe, two to five bags may be flushed through the mud hopper. Low-cost packer and workover fluids may be prepared with six to eight lbs. of Super "Visbestos" viscosifier per barrel of fluid
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier is compatible with ail mud systems It may be used in fresh water, brackish water, tease salt water, sea water, brine, and invert emulsions
Safe-Handling Practices for Super VISBESTOS* Viscosifier
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier is packed in 50-!b. mufti-wail, individually shrink-wrapped packages When used carefully In the field according to instructions, the number of airborne asbestos fibers should be within standards set by the Occupa tional Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
Breathing asbestos dust can cause lung dam age and cancer, especially in smokers Therefore, users should-as a minimum-employ the following work practices:
Do not create or breathe dust.
Wear approved respiratory protection and protective clothing as required by applicable regulations.
Use vacuum or wet-cleaning methods Do not dry-sweep or blow spills with compressed air.
Dispose of dust, contaminated equipment, and pockaging materials in dust-tight containers.
Inspect stored materiel frequently and repair any damage promptly with heavy-duty tape.
Do not reuse pockaging materials.
When drilling operations are completed, there is usually little or no asbestos left in the mud. Any acceptable method of storing the mud for reuse or disposing of it can be used.

Super VEBESTOS Viscosifier
.. .Effectively Increases Viscosity ofAll Drilling Fluids
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier is a presheared chrysotfle-asbeslos product that can increase the viscosity of all aqueous drilling fluids. Since the product is sheared in the processing plant-not on the rig-users get almost instant liberation of the individual asbestos fibers in the drilling fluid. Thus, the viscosifier effectively allows the fluid to suspend and carry cuttings and barites, providing as much as a 50% reduction in slip velocity The result is higher drill-bit penetration rates plus several other operating benefits shown in the chart below.
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier is a product whose fibers have been liberated for fast mixing. `Univis* viscosifier is a pelletized version of the same product that is free-flowing, minimizes dust, and reduces storage and shipping costs. The pellets break down readily during mixing.
Experience vritli a Proven Product
Super "Visbestos" viscosifier has a proven record as an additive to drilling fluids. Interviews with operator personnel drilling-mud engineers, and drilling con tractors show that Super "Visbestos" viscosifier gives 40 to 50% higher yields than regular asbestos addi tives. allowing reductions in material costs of 25 to 30%. In adcfition. Super "Visbestos" viscosifier mixes twice as fast as regular asbestos products.
These reports also indicate that Super "Visbestos" viscosifier controls progressive gels and stabilizes the salt flocculation of bentonite. It also synergizes with bentonite or attapulgite to provide as much as five times higher yield. An addition of two or three lbs. of Super "Visbestos" viscosifier has proven to be as effective as 15 lbs. of attapulgite.
Advantages of Super VISBESTOS* Viscosifier in Drilling Fluids______
Faster drill-bit penetration rates
Better hole cleaning with lower annular velocity
Larger and better cuttings and cutting samples
Reduced water breakout in mud pits
lower costs and less solids in mud from reduced viscosifier adcfitions
Improved circulation with less washout and better gauge holes
Faster yields and no yield lag, minimizing possibility of overtreating
Mud-acid soluble.
No need to bypass shale shakers, desilters. or desanders
Not affected by contaminatioa pressure, or temperature

with fresh water in the earlv stages of drilling to keep the hole clean and seal seepage losses, or in the latter stages of drilling as the well nears completion. In the interim stages of drilling, when salt forma tions are often encountered, Flosal continues to be useful because its presence eliminates the problem of gelling Thus it plavs an im portant role in the entire drilling program, providing opportunities for savings in both labor and ma terial costs.
The effectiveness of Flosal in both fresh and salt water svstems is demonstrated in Table I. In many instances, it can achieve the same results with as little as U the ma
terial requirements when bentonite or attapulgite is used. A more com mon method of determination is the funnel viscosity check. Figure I plots funnel viscosity versus ma terial requirements for several ma terials. It is fairly evident that Flosal achieves the best results for the least amount of material added.
Another important feature of Flosal is its effect on mud proper ties with regard to weight and viscosity. It has already been men tioned that Flosal will increase viscosity without significant in crease m mud weight. Cenerallv speaking, it does not contribute to progressive gel strength nor is it affected noticeably bv variations
in pH. Flosal is not affected by mud contaminants and it is stable at high temperature.
In every respect then, this ma terial is very stable and is com patible with all drilling muds.
There are manv different wavs in which Flosal has been used economically in conjunction with fresh or salt water drilling muds. These include
Spud mudr Sample muds Emulsion muds Workover muds Brine or Fresh U'ater-
Flosal muds
Flosal has been used in spud muds to replace bentonite. It has also been used on a number of wells, in both fresh water and brine, to improve sample size and reduce fill-up. In a recent test, Flosal was used to increase sample size on a well drilling at 17,500 feet. The results were successful: the samples were obtained with a 31 viscosity fluid, without change in rate of penetration.
Flosal has been used on a num ber of wells in a 3 to 15t oil emulsion in fresh water or brine. In these instances, Flosal is an effective emulsifier. As previously discussed, it has also been used successfully in weighted muds, workover muds and clear water muds.
There are many economics that can be realized through the use of Flosal. Its versatility in fresh or salt water eliminates the need for stocking different types of mate rials. Table I and Figure I both show clearly that economics can be achieved with less material. An other important feature of Flosal is its svnergistic relationship to water loss controllers. Table II shows the reduction in polymer re quirements that can be realized using Flosal as compared to poly mer requirements for comparable materials. These benefits are di rect; there are others of a more indirect nature which result in more economical drilling opera tions. An example of this is re duced drilling time that is realized through lower solids muds.
Handling and mixing instructions
for Flosal are relatively simple. It
is a chemically inert material which
requires no special storage or hand
ling techniques. It should be added
slowlv to the mud svstem through
a conventional hopper. Insofar as
mixing of Flosal is concerned, gen
erally. increased shear will result
in increased vield.

USES IN SALT WATER WORKOVER FLUIDS
FLOSAL
DRISPAC
INTRODUCTION
Flosal and Drispac additives, having been used suc cessfully in drilling muds, are now gaining popularity as additives used in the preparation of workover fluids from brines and field salt waters. These proven per formers are thus providing the industry with a new and unique type of workover fluid to solve many of its problems.
Quite frequently when an expensive workover job is completed, the well doesn't come back as productive as it was before being worked over. When this happens, the well was already on a sharp production decline and the production wasn't there anymore, or the formation adjacent to the bore hole was damaged by the workover fluid that was used, or both.
The main concern when choosing a workover fluid is to select one that will not damage the producing formations. This is easy to understand when one realizes that the degree of productivity of a well depends largely upon the correct choice of a workover fluid. The choice of a wrong type of fluid will damage the well irrepar ably. Therefore, the best workover fluid to use is one that permits the formation permeability to be returned to its original state upon completion.
Workover fluids therefore are necessary and im portant tools used in working over wells in order to start them producing again. Workover fluids are used to kill and control wells while necessary remedial work is being performed on them. They should possess sufficient carrying capacity to remove sands, formation cuttings and other debris from the well Moreover, salt water workover fluids containing Flosal and Drispac offer many additional advantages which will be discussed in this bulletin

FLOSAL / DRISPAC
USES
IN
SALT
WATER WORKOVER
FLUIDS
FLOSAL/DRISPAC WORKOVER FLUIDS MINIMIZE FORMATION BLOCKAGE
The Flosal additive is an inorganic mineral used to increase the carrying capacity and suspending ability of drilling muds and workover fluids. The material is in the form of short length bundles of fibers which, upon being sheared, are torn apart and separated and thus impart viscosity and carrying capacity to either salt water or fresh water. The Drispac additive is a white, free-flowing powder. It is a long-chain polymer that imparts bc'h viscosity and water loss control to salty or fresh water, and is an extremely high yield material.
Flosal/Drispac workover fluids are outstanding for two reasons: (1) Flosal/Drispac workover fluids are low in solids and do not tend to damage producing formations by plugging the permeability of the pro ducing formations with solids; (2) Flosal/Drispac workover fluids have low water loss, minimizing the amount of fluid lost to a producing formation which could cause water blocking due to an emulsion plugging the formation.
The Flosal/Drispac workover fluid may be prepared using brine having the same chemical nature as the brine originally in the formation. This makes blocking of-permeability due to clay swelling in the formation less likely In his technical report on "Clay Mineralogy Problems in Oil Recovery." Dr. John Moore points out that the susceptibility to damage of a producing sand by a foreign fluid is largely dependent on its clay con
tent. Many others have written technical papers verifying Dr. Moore's findings. It is widely known that saline filtrates cause less trouble than other fluids when used in wells where dirty sands are present. Waters containing dissolved salt in such quantities as to be inhibitive are less likely to cause formation damage in dirty sands and it is strongly recommended that the native formation water be put back in the well. In order to guard against formation damage from the liquid used in preparing the workover fluids, it is best to use formation water from the zone to be exposed if at all possible. Formation water is recommended in the preparation of the Flosal/Drispac workover fluids. Both materials have worked well in almost every type of field salt water, bay water or sea water used thus far. If the calcium ion is extremely high, soda ash treatment is beneficial.
Dr. Moore and many others also point out that clay solids from a drilling mud or workover mud can pene trate an oil sand and impart permanent damage by becoming lodged in the pore spaces. When the well is brought in, the clay solids remain in place and restrict the flow of formation fluids into the well bore. There are ways and means to stimulate these wells but most of them are expensive and many times attempts at stimulating the wells are unsuccessful. Of course, the penetration of clay solids into a rock requires that the clay solids be smaller than the pore openings. This arrangement is quite commonly present. An extreme case would be the loss of whole mud to a formation when returns are lost. Because of the general nature of most clays, the particles continue to hydrate and swell after having penetrated the formation around the well bore. An elevated well temperature will promote this swelling tendency. This sometimes causes the clay particles to become lodged so tightly that it is impossible to backflush them and clean up the formation when bringing in the well. Another factor too. in this respect, is differential pressure. The greater the differential between the fluid column and the formation pressure, the tighter the solids particles will be jammed into the formation.
To guard against formation blockage from minute clay solids it is quite logical to believe that a non swelling, non-clay material would tend to help eliminate the problem. Flosal fibers are at least 50 times larger than the average sized clay particle. The short-length Flosal fibers will tend to seal off the face of the for mation rather than penetrate. If there should be pore spaces large enough for the Flosal particles to pass through, there could never be any swelling or expansion of the particles that might form a block in the perme ability. Filtration of a Flosal/Drispac fluid produces a film rather than a filter cake. Field experience with this system indicates Drispac effectively seals the spaces between Flosal fibers and provides water loss control.
FLOSAL/DRISPAC WORKOVER FLUIDS CLEAN THE HOLE
In addition to protecting the producing formation from damage and at the same time containing the formation pressures, it is sometimes necessary to cir culate the hole clean of sand, cement cuttings, steel millings and the like. Usually field salt water alone will not serve this purpose. Since a lot of workover rigs are equipped with very small piston pumps, it is some times necessary to clean the hole with low annular velocities. One of the unique features of a workover fluid containing Flosal is its ability to clean the hole or its "carrying capacity". This is explained by the "fiberization," or the tearing apart of the Flosal fibers and their resultant hanging together as the fluid is in motion.
Contrary to popular belief, funnel viscosity and carrying capacity are not necessarily analogous. Flosal slurries refute this idea completely. A Flosal slurry having a measured funnel viscosity of 35 sec API has about the same canying capacity as a clay slurry with a funnel viscosity in the range of 45-50 sec API or even higher. On several occasions 10 lb/bbl Flosal has been added to fresh water for use as a spacer fluid or "wash" be tween cement slurries and the drilling mud. The material was added to the water and twice pumped through the Halliburton mixing hopper. The resulting mixture would almost peak up like pie meringue, but when the funnel viscosity was checked it was 45 sec API.
ADDITIONAL BENEFITS OF FLOSAL/ DRISPAC WORKOVER FLUIDS
WITHSTANDS CEMENT CONTAMINATION
All operators are interested in the ability of the Flosal/Drispac system to withstand cement contamina tion. They want to be able to drill cement with this fluid and yet not lose the viscosity and water loss control. On a recent job, the remaining cement was drilled out from six squeeze jobs and several cement plugs were drilled with that same fluid. There were no adverse effects to the viscosity or the water loss control of the system. If at any time cement contamination might appear to be a problem, sodium bicarbonate can be added to counteract the effects of the cement.
REQUIRES LITTLE MAINTENANCE
Flosal/Drispac workover fluids are non-biodegradable. therefore they can be stored for re-use. They re quire no preservative and considerably less maintenance than systems containing natural gums. Like all water base fluids, they are much less expensive than oil base fluids.
FOAMING NOT A PROBLEM
All salt water muds foam. A benefit of the Flosal/ Drispac workover fluids as a low solids salt water fluid is the minimizing of this foaming problem. Most of the foaming of Flosal/Drispac workover fluids occurs dur ing mixing operations when air is being introduced into the fluid through the mud hopper. Usually if the system does foam, the foam will soon dissipate when the hopper is shut off. With the Flosal/Drispac workover fluids, foaming has never been so severe as to be a problem. Care should be taken, however, that surface guns not be used with a salt water fluid because of the air entrainment that results.
EASY TO MIX
Flosal/Drispac additives used in workover fluids are easy to mix. A mud hopper in working condition will do a good job of mixing both materials. Flosal does its best job 'fter having been sheared vigorously. This means pumping it through a jet nozzle at a fast rate with a piston type pump which can attain at least 200300 pounds pump pressure. Drispac, being a high yield material, has to be mixed slower than the Flosal. How ever, because of the small amount of Drispac required, the time taken for mixing is of little consequence. A mud jet rigged up with a suction hose will do an excellent job of mixing these products.
Field experiences to date have shown that by using the recommended concentrations of materials -- 5 lb/bbl Flosal and V* lb/bbl Drispac -- the result will be a funnel viscosity of about 35-40 sec API and water loss in the range of 10-20 milliliters (as tested by the Standard API 30 minute test).
SUMMARY
A salt water workover fluid containing Flosal and Drispac mud additives offers these advantages over other workover fluids:
protection against permanent damage to the producing formation.
carrying capacity for cleaning the hole. ability to withstand cement contamination. little or no maintenance required. fewer foaming problems. easier mixing. much lower cost than oil muds. can be stored or transferred from well to well.

NEW FLAKES FOR: SUSPENDING SOLIDS LIFTING CUTTINGS HOLE CLEANING CARRYING CAPACITY
MUD ADDITIVE
At Drilling Specialties Company innovation has been the name of the game. In 1964 Drilling Specialties Company introduced to the drilling industry a novel suspending agent trademarked Flosal. Flosal was widely accepted and used from the very beginning. Operators and contractors alike changed their mud programs to include this effective hole cleaning additive.
Today there is an improved Flosal additive. It is safer, more effective and less bulky than the former additive, which accounts for. its being the most extensively used additive of its type.
WHAT IS NEW ABOUT FLOSAL ADDITIVE
Major changes have been made in the processing and bagging of Flosal additive. It is made from distinctively gray colored inorganic fibers that have been pre-wet, compacted and sized according to specifications into flake form which are fast-acting, relatively dust-free and dispersible in water of any salinity. The bag size for Flosal flakes has been reduced 60% from previous bags to 1.11 cubic feet. Table I shows the increased initial effectiveness of Flosal flaked additive fibers in water. Higher initial viscosity is developed without sacrificing stability in ultimate viscosity. This phenomenon is unique with Flosal flaked fibers. The result is fast, but lasting, suspending ability regardless of horsepower or shear power available at the mixing pump.

HOW AND WHY IT WORKS
How and why the improved Flosal additive works in mud can be shown in the laboratory and in the field. In Graph No. t typical funnel viscosities are shown in field brine. Funnel viscosity, however, is not wholly indicative of how the additive works. A latticework of fibers is formed when the flakes are dispersed in fluid. This structure suspends solids and suppresses particle migration. It supports solids of density greater than 1.0 and restrains solids of density less than 1.0. Because the reaction is physical rather than chemical, rheological proper ties of Flosal containing fluids do not correlate with those of clay fluids. In fact, no commonly used rheology measuring device or formula is accurate in predicting Flosal's capabilities as a carrying agent. However, an apparatus has been devised that demonstrates visually Flosal's lifting ability. In applying the non-Newtonian Power Law to drilling fluids, "n" and "K" values indicate Flosal fluids to be superior to clay fluids for drilling. Yet, even this evidence does not adequately describe Flosal's superior suspending and cleaning ability in field mud. The suspending ability of a clay fluid is not as great as a clay-Flosal fluid at equal viscosities.
The lifting power and ability to overcome slip velocity of Flosal additive compared to bentonite and attapulgite clay can be demonstrated in the

apparatus in Figure 1. Chips are released into the mud stream, and their direction and rate of travel are noted. Flosal additive is over 10 times more effective than bentonite in fresh water, and over five times more effective than salt water clay in salt water. In Figures 2 and 3 suspending characteristics of Flosal and salt water clay are compared in saturated salt water. In time, separation of water from solids will occur and the suspension will stratify to some extent. Yet, solids will not settle and compact as clay solids in the clay-salt water cylinder.

HOW IT IS USED
SPUD MUD
Spud mud 'S made by adding 3-4 Ibs/bbl Flosal additive and approximately 10 Ibs/bbl or more bentonite to water of any salinity For best results pre-hydrate bentonite m fresh water if salt water is used for makeup Lime or caustic can be used as a fioccuiant when fresh water is used if desired i m proved Fiosai and bentonite maintenance treatments should be m the ratio of 1 3 on a weight basis (two 50 ib nags Flosal for each three 100 lb bags of bentonitei This formulation insures hole c'eamng even m the viscosity range of 32-33 sec/qt Both spud mud and uooer hole drilling mud containing Fiosai and bentonite will lift dense sand large cuttings a<~a even rocks ano gravel up anc over tne soaker See Figure 4
In the spud mud Flosal is used for carrying capacity and bentonite for wallcake control In drilling porous formations bentonite is preferable to other clays for building wallcake Low flat gels are characteristic of the system. The PV/YP ratio should be m the range of 1 2 to 1 3 for maximum cleaning action and minimum hole enlargement This profile of characteristics is unique in mud and is made possible by the use of the improved Flosal additive
LOW SOLIDS MUDS
All too often clear fluids fail to clean the hole On the other hand high solids muds are not the best drilling fluids In many areas low solids muds are me best cho.ce. Obviously, the most efficient low solids mud is me one which serves the purpose with me lowest concentration of solids A good low solcs dolling fluid has a low plastic viscosity A good noie cleaning fluid has a relatively high yield pom; Lew solids ..ith a low PV'YP ratio are not common to muds made with clays alone By the time me c'a/ concentration is high enougn to de.e'op prooer

yield value the gels, the plastic viscosity and the solids are all too high for maximum drilling rate This occurs even when beneficiated clays are used A portion of the mud's clay content must be replaced with Flosal in order to develop a proper PV/YP ratio at minimum solids content. Up to 3 lbs, bbl Flosal additive makes the proper concentration of proper ties possible The use of inert fibers also reduces the need for dispersion and thinning Flosal additive is especially adaptable to non-dispersed low solids muds
FLUSH CLEANING
Fast economical hole cleaning can be ac complished by mixing a small concentrated batch or pill of improved Flosal with or without bentonite The mix is circulated through the hole to flush it clean. Ten or more sacks of Flosal can be used alone or a
50-100 bbl pill of 1-4 ibs/bbl. Flosal and 10 lbs. bbl bentonite can be used Flush cleaning with Flosal is especially effective when drilling with water As many flushes as necessary can be used to insure cleaning and to prevent slippage and regrindmg of cuttings The flush can be recirculated or removed with the cuttings as desired
SAMPLE MUD
Geologists need and demand better formation samples than those sometimes brought to the surface by water or solids-free drilling fluids One to two Ibs/bbl. Flosal added to thesefluidswill not aiy bring up larger cuttings but will also prevent "Stringing out of samples Figure 5 shows the sampling results of adding Flosal to a clear drilling fluid

LARGE DIAMETER HOLES
In drilling large diameter holes annular velocities are often low In drilling or reaming holes 24 to 48 inches and larger the annular velocity may be as low as 10 ft min or less Hole cleaning is solely dependent upon the carrying capacity of the mud. The latticework structure formed by Flosal additive in muci supports cuttings and cavings in this low fluid velocity environment Mud withamimmumof3 lbs/bbl Flosal and a funnel viscosityof 40-45 sec/qt. will clean large diameter holes.
The use of Flosal along with bentonite. Driscose or Drispac^ is desirable, if not absolutely necessary, to suspend cuttings and to support the walls of the well bore in large diameter holes. This application is applied to reverse circulation as well as to conven tional circulation in the drilling of storage wells, mining shafts, offshore platform legs, building foundations and other excavations where the upward velocity of the fluid is extremely low.
SEEPAGE LOSS
Flosal additive can be used to overcome seepage loss when using water or clear fluids in drilling or workover operations. One to five lbs/bbl. Flosal are usually used alone or with Drispac polymer, or bentonite for sealing porous formations. In drilling muds the flaked fiber provides particles large enough to plaster over the porous zone. This initiates a filtercake for screeningout other particles that form a seal Drispac polymer is preferable to clays because it is water soluble, acid dissolvable and less injurious to productive zones.
CEMENTING
Improved Flosal in water or mud makes a very effective flush fluid for hole cleaning prior to running
casing or liners. Cuttings and debris can sometimes plug off tops of liners in the hanger, causing poor cement jobs The flush fluid is mixed in the same manner as the fluid described in flush cleaning.
Flosal slurries containing 5 lbs/bbl. or more in water can also be used as spacers between mud and cement. The spacer slurry is t3sy to prepare, inexpensive, inert and effective in cleaning mud and cuttings from the hole prior to cementing. It does not contaminate either the mud system or the cement slurry.
WORKOVER AND COMPLETION
Flosal is usable in workover and completion operations because it provides viscosity and lifting power to almost any type of liquid. Flosal is normally used with Drispac polymer to formulate a near solids-free workover fluid. Being at least 50 *'mes larger than clay particles, the fibers mat across a formation face rather than penetrate it. Drispac polymer seals the space between the fibers and reduces waterloss. Improved Flosal is inert, but acid soluble. Drispac polymer is also acid soluble. A Typical workover mud is made with 5 lbs/bbl. Flosal and 3/< to 1 Ib/bbl. Drispac in field brine. The resulting funnel viscosity is 35-40 sec/qt. and the API waterloss is 10-20 ml. See Drilling Specialties Company Flosal/Drispac brochure No 221
PACKER FLUIDS
Becauseof itssuspending ability, its inertness and its resistance to temperature, degradation and gelation. Flosal additive is an excellent conditioner for packer fluids. Flosal additive will not settle and compact in time like clays.
