Rheological Characterization

We utilize a number of rheometers in testing fluid rheology to measure the rheological properties of hydraulic fracturing fluids under a wide range of shear rates. They are as follows:

• Fann model 50 viscometer
• Breaker testing
• Fluid stability
• Fann 35
• FR Performance Testing
• Viscosity Shear Sweeps
• Elastic Behavior Testing
• Emulsion Testing

As a result of years of research during our Rheology consortium, we have the equipment, knowledge, and ability to conduct larger scale testing. Specialized testing is also available.
