Calcium Bromide 52%

Calcium Bromide brine is a highly concentrated salt solution. It has a pale yellow color and it is commonly used in various industrial applications, such as drilling fluids, completion fluids, and as a dehydrating agent in natural gas and crude oil production.

The concentration of the brine solution can vary depending on the intended use, but it typically ranges from 40% to 52% by weight of calcium bromide. The high concentration of the solution makes it an effective fluid for drilling and completion operations because it has a high density and can provide the necessary pressure to prevent formation fluid from entering the wellbore.

Calcium bromide brine is also known for its excellent thermal stability and its ability to withstand high temperatures without decomposition or degradation. Additionally, it is non-toxic, making it a safe and reliable choice for use in various applications.
