The company «Mumtaz Co», founded in 2014, is a young, dynamic company in the production of barite. The main consumers of « Mumtaz Co » are oil and gas companies. Processed barite used in drilling oil and gas wells as a weighting agent to control the hydrostatic pressure. Barite processing plant is the largest and most high-tech facilities in the CIS for production drilling grade barite. The product complies with international standards such as: API for processing barite,
n. [Drilling Fluids]
A dense mineral comprising barium sulfate [BaSO4]. Commonly used as a weighting agent for all types of drilling fluids, barites are mined in many areas worldwide and shipped as ore to grinding plants in strategic locations, where API specifies grinding to a particle size of 3 to74 microns. Pure barium sulfate has a specific gravity of 4.50 g/cm3, but drilling-grade barite is expected to have a specific gravity of at least 4.20 g/cm3 to meet API specifications. Contaminants in barite, such as cement, siderite, pyrrhotite, gypsum and anhydrite, can cause problems in certain mud systems and should be evaluated in any assurance program for drilling-mud additives.
