Calcium Bromide Liquid 52% 14.2 PPG Density
Formula: CaBr₂

Calcium Bromide

52% Brine Solution (Completion Fluid)

Calcium Bromide Liquid is a high-density, solids-free clear brine fluid. It is extensively used in the Oil & Gas industry as a completion and workover fluid. Its high density allows it to control formation pressures effectively while preventing formation damage caused by solids.

CAS Number 7789-41-5
Density (SG) 1.70 g/ml Min
Appearance Clear Colorless Liquid

Product Overview

Ruvon's Calcium Bromide 52% is a single-salt brine. It can be mixed with Zinc Bromide (ZnBr2) or Calcium Chloride (CaCl2) to adjust density and crystallization points for specific well conditions. Being solids-free, it ensures that the permeability of the oil reservoir is not blocked, maximizing oil recovery.

  • Non-Damaging: Contains no suspended solids that could clog the formation pores.
  • Inhibition: Prevents the hydration and swelling of clay particles in the formation.
  • Compatibility: Compatible with most other oilfield brines and additives.

Physics of Drilling: "The Weight of Water"

Hydrostatic Pressure Control

Normal water weighs 8.33 PPG (Pounds Per Gallon). Calcium Bromide weighs 14.2 PPG. This massive density difference is crucial.

  • Well Control: The heavy column of fluid exerts downward pressure (Hydrostatic Head) to counterbalance the extreme upward pressure of oil and gas from the reservoir, preventing dangerous blowouts.
  • Clay Inhibition: The Calcium ions ($\text{Ca}^{2+}$) prevent clay in the rock formation from swelling and blocking oil flow, unlike freshwater which causes swelling.

Industrial Applications

Completion & Workover Fluid

Used during the final stages of well preparation to ensure the wellbore is clean and stable before production begins.

Packer Fluid

Left in the annular space between the tubing and casing to provide pressure balance and corrosion protection over the life of the well.

Mercury Removal

Used in coal-fired power plants to oxidize mercury emissions for easier capture.

Flame Retardants

Used as a component in manufacturing brominated flame retardants.

Water Treatment

Used in industrial cooling towers as a biocide precursor.

Packaging Options

340 KG HDPE Drums

Standard blue drums. Approx 80 drums per 20ft container.

1700 KG IBC Totes

Efficient bulk handling for offshore supply vessels.

Safety & Handling Protocols

Handling Guidelines

Calcium Bromide solution is hygroscopic and can cause irritation.

  • Skin/Eye Contact: Can cause irritation and redness. Wash thoroughly with water. Use gloves and goggles.
  • Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. Do not induce vomiting.
  • Storage: Keep containers tightly closed. It absorbs moisture from the air, which can lower its specific gravity over time.
