• Can disperse easily with minimal shear • Efficient shale/clay
stabilizer and viscosifier • Helps impart high degree of lubricity • Compatible with other drilling fluid additives when added in proper sequence •
Non-fermenting • No petroleum distillates involved • Breaks down chemically with bleach (sodium hypochlorite) • NSF/ANSI Standard 60 Certified
Applications: • Stabilize reactive clay and shale formations • Keep trench excavation open during the construction • Produce high viscosity
solids-free slurry • Enhance rheological properties of a low-solids drilling mud • Enhance core recovery in continuous wireline coring operations •
Flocculate non-reactive solids in reserve pit at low concentrations • Reduce torque and drag
