Novel completion fluid compositions for fluid loss control during completion and workover operations conducted on a wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation are disclosed. In particular, the composition is a weighted brine fluid having a polymetaphosphate composition, a biopolymer suspension agent, and a fluid loss control additive. These novel compositions provide a means to temporarily seal a wellbore communicating with a subterranean formation to enable completion or workover operations to be performed, after which the composition can be removed by contact with an acidic composition.
