Lightweight Additives

Riteks’ Oil Drilling Fine Grade GlassDrill Ball Bearings are engineered to optimize drilling efficiency in challenging environments, particularly in deviated holes where friction and torque can be significant obstacles. These finer-grade glass spheres act as micro ball bearings, offering even more precise control in reducing friction between the drill string and the wellbore. The fine grade is particularly effective in creating a smooth, lubricating layer, leading to lower torque requirements, smoother drilling, and reduced wear on equipment. Made from transparent, high-quality soda lime glass, these fine GlassDrill Ball Bearings are free of pits and air bubbles, ensuring consistent performance. Chemically inert, they do not alter the properties of the mud system, making them ideal for maintaining the integrity of the drilling fluid while enhancing operational efficiency.

Riteks’ Oil Drilling Coarse GlassDrill Ball Bearings are designed to optimize drilling efficiency, especially in deviated holes where friction and torque can be problematic. These solid glass spheres act as micro ball bearings, forming a lubricating layer that significantly reduces friction between the drill string and the wellbore. The reduction in friction lowers the torque needed, resulting in smoother drilling and less equipment wear. Made from high-quality soda lime glass, the GlassDrill Ball Bearings are free of imperfections and are chemically inert, ensuring they do not alter the mud system’s properties while enhancing overall drilling performance.
