Engineering Support for Drill Fluids

Our service department offers the following services:

Support of drill and washing fluids and purification system from programme making to job completion.

JSC "NPO "POLYCELL" supplies all chemical reactants and materials necessary for preparation and processing of drill fluids within the framework of engineering support for drill fluids during well drilling on the Customer’s sites.

Highly qualified specialists instructed at our training-and-analysis centre administer drill fluids preparation, monitoring of process parameters with the help of modern on-the-job labs and direct parameter regulation procedures during wellsite construction in compliance with the Well Cleanout Programme adopted and developed according to the Customer’s orders.

Together with their reasonable consumption and optimal use in drill fluids, proper storage of chemical reactants and materials makes it possible to achieve high technical economic performance and ensure fault-free well making in difficult geological environment by excluding or minimizing potential drilling complications.


Organization of isolation of disastrous lost circulation areas.

Our specialists organize both, prevention of loss of returns with the help of specific reactants and activities for eliminating disastrous lost circulation using specialized equipment and composites.


Organization of waste collection, neutralization, transportation, and dumping.

The services are licensed. 

Using specialized equipment, our company can organize collection, transportation, and dumping of drilling waste as part of wellsite construction and offers you several procedures for drill waste handling:

- Drill waste neutralization. This procedure includes collection of drill waste using specialized motor vehicles directly on cluster pads and transportation of drilling sludge and used drill fluids to disposal sites and neutralization zones, respectively. A neutralization zone is a complex of equipment units connected with each other in production cycle processes based on cleanout of processed drill fluid in vibrating sieves and centrifuges and chemical processing in the filtration-and-sedimentation plant of the coagulation-and-filtration unit. The resulted clarified water can be used in making new solutions, and clarified water surplus is directed to the complex of purification equipment for pumping down to absorbing wells. The exploitation of the neutralization zone allows the Customer to optimize its costs, in particular, by water consumption decrease, and pay lower fees for negative environmental effects of waste allocation.

- Drilling waste deactivation by capsulation.Drilling waste can be deactivated by mechanically mixing it with special reactant Econaft. This procedure is performed on a Hector-type unit made in Germany by «Gebrüder Lödige Maschinenbau, GmbH». As a result of waste processing and deactivation, a capsulated material of varied structure is obtained. According to ToR 5716-004-11085815-2000, this material corresponds to PUN mineral powder and can be used in forming the zero level of well pads and road slopes, in recultivation activities, and for other construction purposes.
