Oilfield Products

Smart, Sustainable Solutions for Oilfield Operations

Oilfield Products provide temporary bridging, plugging, and sealing materials that cut costs, save time and protect the reservoir - all without cleanup or environmental risk.

At Specialty Powders, we understand that every stage of well completion and workover brings its own set of challenges. That’s why our Oilfield Products range—featuring temporary bridging, plugging, and sealing materials—is designed to help operators save time, reduce costs, and avoid unnecessary interventions without compromising environmental safety or reservoir compatibility.

Our oilfield product solutions offer a smart alternative to mechanical plugs and ball sealers. They can be used within a stage to improve cluster efficiency or to tackle difficult conditions, such as highly washed-out perforation holes where ball sealers struggle to form a proper seal. In many cases, these products reduce or even remove the need for drilling out plugs, keeping operations efficient and on schedule.

Why Oilfield Works Best?

The strength of our Oilfield Products lies in their temporary nature. They stay in place long enough to do the job, then naturally break down without leaving potential damage.

Degradable materials slowly disappear through hydrolytic degradation—water molecules gradually break down the solids into water-soluble compounds.
Slowly soluble materials dissolve over time, providing a predictable service life long enough to achieve the desired seal before naturally cleaning up.

With no cleanup required after the material degrades, you save both time and operational costs. Plus, our oilfield product range is non-toxic, environmentally acceptable, and reservoir compliant, ensuring no negative interaction with produced fluids or other additives.

Designing the Right Solution

Every application is different, and bottom hole temperature is one of the most important factors when designing a treatment, as temperature affects the speed of degradation and dissolution.

We also consider:

Diameter of the hole, port, or pore throat to be bridged
Width of slots, fractures, or screens to be bridged
Permeability of the rock face to be sealed

From this data, we design a particle size distribution that delivers an efficient, reliable seal for your specific conditions.
