POTASSIUMFORMATE Usage
Potassium formate is mainly used in oil drilling, oilfield drilling fluids, completion fluids, carbon black surface modifiers, snow melting agents, mining, etc.
It is mainly used to prepare water-containing oil well filling fluids. In foreign countries, potassium formate began to be used in drilling and completion fluids in the late 1990s, especially in high-density drilling and completion fluid systems and achieved good Chemicalbook results. The drilling fluid system formulated with potassium formate has outstanding advantages such as strong suppression, good compatibility, environmental protection, and oil layer protection. Field application results show that potassium formate inhibits clay hydration.
