STRATA-TROL®
Pre-coupled Gilsonite/Resin Blend
STRATA-TROL® is an innovative blend of variable softening point, naturally occurring asphaltine, pre-coupled and combined with select resins.

This unique combination allows STRATA-TROL® to exhibit the particle integrity needed to seal micro fractured shales and underbalanced sands while promoting exceptional HTHP fluid loss reductions. Minimizing fluid contact with reactive formations, sealing permeable underbalanced sands and deposition of a thin lubricated filter cake are characteristics of STRATA-TROL®.
BENEFITS
  • Sized, compressible & deformable particles.
  • Pre-coupled to eliminate costly surfactants.
  • Minimizes shale dispersion.
  • Enhances fluids ability to seal sand sections and micro-fractures.
  • Promotes deposition of a thin tough filter cake.
  • Exhibits excellent HT-HP fluid loss reduction.
  • Environmentally safe.
APPLICATION
  • System Treatment...............2-5 ppb
  • Pill Form..............................8-15 ppb
A system treatment followed by high concentration sweeps is recommended. The sweeps should be incorporated to maintain system concentrations. A high concentration pill can be spotted across problematic zones prior to logging or running casing.
