CEMENT EXTENDER: GLO CENOSPHERE: Microsphere 

Cenosphere is a Light weight, Inert Hollow sphere made essentially of Silica and Alumina, typically produced as a by product of Coal Combustion in Power Plants and widely used as Extenders for cement during Drilling and Cementing to reduce the cement slurry Density

GDFCL since 1995 has been the leading manufacturer of  a complete range of speciality Cementing additves for the drilling cementing industry world wide. GDFCL prides its self as the manufacturer of the widest range of specialty cement additives supplying our certified products to over 25 countries world wide. 

Description:

GLO CENOSPHERE  is a Inert Hollow Microsphere produced as a byproduce of coal combustion in poswer plants . These Microspheres of the best Quality and the highest crush strength are sieved  and sized for usage as a Lightweight extender for Drilling cement slurrys. 

Application:

GLO CENOSPHERE manufactured by GDFCL is essientially for the cementing Industry  and is widely used as a Extender in cement slurrys. It can be used in wells with high bottom hole circulating temperatures and it helps mitigate the cement slurry and enhance oscillating properties. The spherical shape of cenosphere improves flow ability in most applications and provides a more even distribution of the filler material. The natural properties of cenosphere make it possible to use them either in dry or wet slurry form. 

Common Name: Hollow Ceramic Sphere or Microspheres

Advantages

  • Improve workability due to the ball bearing effect
  • A bulk filler and shrinkage reducer in cement grout
  • Does not require additional mixing equipment
  • Requires less material and water than ceramic spheres to achieve similar densities
  • Increases slurry yield to improve cement volume
