The Retort measures the percentage (%) of oil, water, and solids in a sample of drilling fluid or cuttings. The results from a Retort test are essenti...
Fracturing fluids are viscous mixtures of water and additives that are pumped at high pressures into an underground oil or natural gas formation. They...
The Mud Engineer's Testing Equipment on Rollers (METEOR) Kit contains all the equipment you'll need to conduct tests on water and oil-based muds (with...
Cement in an oil well needs to be able to resist the forces found in the formation in order to protect the steel casing around which it is placed. The...
The lubricating properties of drilling fluids are an important factor in well design. Deviated holes are particularly susceptible to excess drag betwe...
Cement slurries used in the oil field are dynamic fluids with complex chemistries. Laboratories tasked with the development of slurries used for cemen...
Shale swelling is a major cause of wellbore instability. It can lead to a variety of problems, such as hole sloughing, pipe drag, bit balling, stuck p...
For years, our quality management system has been ISO 9001:2008 certified. We constantly work hard to meet the strict requirements necessary to mainta...
To define the physical properties of a cement slurry, laboratory personnel need to run a complete suite of performance tests. To produce consistent te...
Corrosion costs the drilling industry billions of dollars every year. Drill pipe, casing, and downhole tools are particularly vulnerable. To measure t...
Advanced oil well cement testing goes beyond compressive strength. The elastic properties (Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s Ratio, and Tensile Strength) als...
OFI Testing Equipment, Inc. is excited to announce our new partnership with Geotechnical Consulting and Testing Systems (GCTS). GCTS is a leadin...
Budgets in the oilfield industry are tight right now. It is harder than ever to keep your lab equipped with the latest technology. But need to new tec...
The Model 800 Viscometer has been around for years. It’s the workhorse of laboratory and field rheological testing. But why is it so popular? Why do s...
Foam cement is a versatile, low-density cementing system used in many oil-well applications. It is commonly used for low fracture gradient or lost cir...
The May 2016 issue of the OFI Times newsletter is here! Take a look inside to find out what's happening at OFITE. This issue inclu...
Settling during a well cement operation can lead to the development of free water or free fluid. Free water and fluid do not set like cement, which ca...
