FER-OX

Overview Library

Iron oxide weighting agent

FER-OX weighting agent is a high-quality, ground iron oxide (hematite) with a specific gravity of 5 or above. Owing to its high specific gravity, drilling fluids formulated with FER-OX agent have a lower solids content that frequently contributes to higher ROP compared with barite-weighted fluids. It may be substituted for, or blended with, barite in all types of drilling fluid systems. FER-OX agent is ground and processed to remove impurities before being classified to achieve the desired particle size distribution.
