3.0 Applications
:-
It is useful in adjusting the density of fresh or recycled work
over, completion and packer brines. Calcium bromide in solid,
powdered form is typically used for preparing high-density,
solids-free completion and workover fluids when the cost of
transporting the liquid is cost prohibitive. Calcium bromide can
be used to formulate single-salt brines or in combination with
other dual-valence salts to form brines of required densities
