API grade hematite powder refers to high-purity hematite (Fe₂O₃) powder that meets the specifications set by the American Petroleum Institute (API). It is primarily used in the oil and gas industry, particularly in drilling operations, as a weighting agent for drilling fluids.

Key Features:

Hematite powder is a very high specific gravity of approximately 5.1-5.2 making is useful for increasing the density of drilling mud.

API grade ensures that the hematite powder has minimal impurities which is extremely crucial for consistent performance.

The particle size distribution of API grade hematite is such that it ensures a smooth mixing with the drilling fluid and cementing slurry.

Hematite Powder is highly stable material and does not react with any other component is drilling fluid and cement slurry.

Applications:

It is used in drilling fluids to control the formation pressures and to prevent blowouts and stabilize the borehole.

It's also used in cementing slurry for oil well cementing in high pressure oil zone in oil fields.

Advantages:

Hematite powder is non toxic and eco-friendly as compared to other weighing agent like barite.

It has a better and higher specific gravity than mst of the weighing agents.

It provides a high density with minimal impact on the flow properties or rheology.
