Calcium Chloride (CaCl2 Brine)

PZT-CACL2-1: Used to formulate the internal (dispersed) brine phase of invert-emulsion OBM/SBM systems, balancing water activity against the formation to prevent osmotic water transfer and shale destabilization: essential, non-substitutable invert-emulsion chemistry. Key characteristics: High solubility allows a wide range of achievable brine activities; Non-substitutable role in a properly designed invert-emulsion system. Typical applications: Internal-phase brine for OBM/SBM water-activity balance.
