DEF

Incorporer du sulfate de baryum (BaSO4) à la boue de forage pour en augmenter la densité et contrôler une éventuelle éruption.

CONT

Il faut avoir un stock de baryte suffisant pour augmenter la densité, dès que le besoin s'en fait sentir (contrôle des kicks) [...] augmentons la densité jusqu'à 1,3 en barytant [...] Il faudra donc baryter la boue à 1,36 pour tuer le puits [...] (Forex Neptune, Rapport Intérieur, pp. 8 et ss).
