Frequently asked questions
Do you supply fracturing-grade Guar Gum to Permian and Eagle Ford operators?
Yes. B D Guar manufactures fast-hydrating, fracturing-grade Guar Gum for U.S. shale operators in the Permian (Midland & Delaware basins), Eagle Ford, Bakken, Marcellus, Haynesville and SCOOP/STACK plays. Fann 35SA viscosity at 6 ppt typically 28–34 cP within 3 minutes, with low residue (<5%) and consistent crosslink response with borate and zirconate.
Why ship to Houston for U.S. oilfield buyers?
Houston (Port Houston / Bayport / Barbours Cut) is the closest deep-water gateway to the Permian and Eagle Ford. We ship FOB Mundra to Houston in 30–38 days, then truck via I-10 to Midland, Odessa, Pecos and Carrizo Springs warehouses, or directly to your wellsite hub.
What technical specs do U.S. frac-fluid service companies require?
Standard U.S. frac-grade: 200 mesh, moisture <12%, protein <5%, AIR <5%, particle distribution 95% through 200 mesh, hydration time <3 min, Fann 35SA viscosity 28–34 cP at 6 ppt loading. We tune per customer fluid chemistry (linear gel, borate-crosslinked, hybrid).
Can you supply slickwater-friendly low-residue Guar?
Yes. We produce low-residue (<3%), fast-yielding Guar for slickwater and hybrid frac fluids, optimized for reduced proppant pack damage in tight oil and gas formations.
What about logistics and emergency supply?
We maintain ready stock in Houston via partner warehouses for emergency wellsite calls. Standard ocean lead time is 30–38 days FOB Mundra to Houston; air-freight for sample/qualification batches in 5–7 days.
Do you offer derivatized Guars (CMG, HPG, CMHPG)?
Yes. Carboxymethyl Guar (CMG), Hydroxypropyl Guar (HPG), and Carboxymethyl Hydroxypropyl Guar (CMHPG) for high-temperature, high-salinity and CO2-frac applications. Custom MS/DS levels available.
Are you a qualified supplier to U.S. oilfield service companies?
We supply tier-2 and independent U.S. pumping service companies and are in active qualification with several tier-1 majors. We provide rheology data, batch consistency reports, and on-site technical support for fluid system validation.
How is your fracturing-grade Guar Gum priced versus U.S. distributors?
Direct FOB Mundra pricing is typically 20–35% below U.S. distributor pricing for FCL volumes. Prices are USD-denominated and indexed to Jodhpur guar split markets, updated weekly.
