Lost Circulation Materials (LCM)
Fluid losses during drilling, whether due to formation seepage losses or fractured formations, pose a major challenge. Lost circulation material (LCM) agents can, in many cases, help restore proper wellbore circulation and enable the drilling program to proceed as engineered.
Environmentally Responsible Fluid Loss Solutions
At Oilfield International Services, our fluid loss prevention materials are derived from natural sources—fibrous particles and ground minerals selected for optimal size and performance. Our Products are designed to safely and effectively seal porous rock and fractured formations, minimising fluid losses while maintaining wellbore stability.
