Sodium formate is a high-purity, dry crystalline organic salt used to formulate brine used in drilling, workover and completion operations which require densities ranging from 8.4 - 11.0 lb/gal (1004 - 1320 kg/m3).
Sodium formate  fluids are excellent shale stabilisers for water-sensitive clay/shale formations and clay-containing sandstones. They provide an environmentally safe alternative to chloride brines.

Application
Sodium formate dissolves in water to give solutions up to 10.62 mol/L; i.e. 52.4%, 722.24 g/L at 60°F (15.6°C). The product is an environmentally acceptable alternative to halide brines and is used in completions and workover operations where clear brines are required. ? Sodium formate is used in drilling fluids to provide  shale stabilization and in drill-in fluids to minimize  formation damage. ? The product is used as a replacement for sodium chloride for land-drilling operations in locations where halide salts are restricted. ? Sodium formate solutions are also known to inhibit  the thermal degradation of water-based polymers including xanthan gum and are thus used to extend the application-temperature range of many aqueous fluids.
