Potassium formate(Cas 590-29-4) Usage
Description |
Potassium formate is a useful chemical compound in the production of potassium metal and in the oil and gas industry, often in aqueous solution (alone, or mixed with cesium formate), to yield a high-density, environmentally-friendly brine that can be used a a heat transfer fluid. Potassium formate is available as both a solid and in solution form. |
Uses |
Potassium formate (potassium salt of formic acid), an organic acid used as a drilling fluid additive, was treated using EK. It is mainly used for preparation of an aqueous solution filling the well, in foreign country, potassium formate began to be used in drilling and completion fluids in 1990s, it is especially used in high-density drilling and completion fluid system, and achieved good results. Drilling fluid system which formulated with potassium formate has outstanding advantages of strong inhibition, good compatibility, environmental protection, reservoir protection. Field application results shows that potassium formate can inhibite clay water divide. |

Definition |
ChEBI: The potassium salt of formic acid. |
General Description |
Potassium formate (K Formate) is the potassium salt of formic acid. It has been synthesized by the neutralization reaction of formic acid with potassium hydroxide or potassium carbonate. It has been proposed as a promising secondary refrigerant for use in indirect refrigeration systems. Its crystal structure has been described. Its crystals have been reported to crystallize in the orthorhombic system. |

Use of a Novel Drill-In/Completion Fluid Based on Potassium Formate Brine on the First Open Hole Completion in the Gullfaks Field
Øjvind Svendsen; J. K. Toften; D. S. Marshall; C. L. Hermansson
, Drilling Conference, Amsterdam, Netherlands, February 1995.
This paper describes the first use of a novel drilling fluid based on potassium formate brine and weighted with manganese tetraoxide. Also included is the completion technique used to open hole complete an unconsolidated reservoir. The fluid was selected for maximum brine density, and to facilitate removal of the filtercake. Criteria for fluid and completion selection are presented together with laboratory work conducted to optimise the fluid and the completion for a specific application.
