ID-BLOK
ID-BLOK high-performance, high-strength additive is a single-sack proprietary blend designed for wellbore
strengthening applications and a wide variety of lost circulation scenarios, including, but not limited to,
fractures and matrix permeability. ID-BLOK is applied in the form of a squeeze pill which, depending on the
application, de-waters or de-oils rapidly to form a high shear-strength plug.
Application
ID-BLOK additive can be used in water-based or non-aqueous drilling fluids (NAF) for wellbore strengthening
applications and to cure losses extending from partial to a wide range of severe lost circulation scenarios, at
temperatures up to at least 177° C (350° F).
ID-BLOK is designed to be used for: Wellbore strengthening applications, Curing partial to wide ranging severe
loss situations, Open hole remedial and/or preventive lost circulation squeeze, Improving casing shoe integrity

The recommended concentration of ID-BLOK additive is 114 kg/m (40 lb/bbl), for fluid densities up to 16
lb/gal (1.92 s.g.) in freshwater, seawater or base oil/synthetic (NAF) systems. Fluid densities of 16 lb/gal or
3 3
higher require less ID-BLOK; 86 kg/m (30 lb/bbl) for water-based pills and 57 kg/m (20 lb/bbl) for NAF-based
pills. While ID-BLOK additive can be mixed with oil or synthetic base fluids, mixing a water based pill will
provide the maximum strength. The slurry can be weighted with barite, calcium carbonate or heavy brine. It is
recommended to continuously agitate the pill until pumped and to pull pump screens prior to pumping.
