Stability of Elastomers Subjected to Geothermal Well-Like Conditions

The aim of this study is to understand how commercially available elastomers perform under geothermal well-like conditions and make recommendations to the community based on these results. This poster highlights the mechanical performance of several elastomers (including EPDM, Viton A, Viton B, FFKM, and FEPM) after aging at elevated temperature, pressure, and in well brine and drilling solutions.
