Challenges – Lost Circulation
Seepage
Typically occurs in sand,
sandstone, or silt
formations
© 2014 HALLIBURTON. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
Partial Fluid Loss
Typically occurs in
moderately permeable
unconsolidated sand or
gravel, small natural
fractures, or small induced
fractures
3
Severe/Total Fluid Loss
Typically occurs in highly
permeable and weak
unconsolidated sand or
gravel, large natural and/or
induced fractures, and
vugular formations
Baroid’s Solution – Prevention & Remediation
▌ Six distinct, engineered solutions to help prevent or remediate lost circulation,
with supplemental materials for the most challenging scenarios.

BaraShield™-664 LCM Helps Operator Drill through Severe
Loss Zone, Saving $227K and 2.5 Days
Location: Williston, North Dakota, USA
CHALLENGE:
 An operator drilling in the Beaver Lodge field had experienced
severe mud losses in the Rival formation. Severe lost
circulation was a significant problem on previous wells drilled in
this field.
SOLUTION:
 The shakers were screened down to API 20 mesh to prevent
screening out some of the LCM particles.
 Mud losses were observed immediately upon drilling into the
Rival, but the BaraShield-664 LCM treatment effectively sealed
the problem areas and losses quickly subsided.
RESULT:
 The operator experienced only minimal seepage, and the
section was drilled 2.5 days faster than usual average for this
area, which resulted in a savings of approximately $200,000 in
rig time.
 The total mud loss volume was reduced by 81% when
compared to previous wells, resulting in a $27,000 savings in
mud costs.
 Overall, the operator realized a savings of $227,000.
