Sodium Bromide Solution is an inorganic compound with the formula NaBr.nH2O. It is a high-boiling colorless, odorless liquid that resembles sodium chloride. It is a widely used source of the bromide ion and has many applications. Sodium Bromide (NaBr) liquid is a single salt used to form clear- brine workover and completion fluids.

Application

Sodium Bromide fluids are used where formation pressures require densities from 8.4 to 12.8 lb/gal (1,007 to 1,534 kg/m) or where the formation waters contain high concentrations of bicarbonate and sulfate ions. NaBr can be mixed with NaCl to obtain densities up to 12.8 lb/gal (1,534 kg/m). NaBr/NaCl systems are more economical than pure NaBr solutions.
