NC-LIG

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

NC-LIG is a causticized lignite blend. NC-LIG is used as a deflocculant and a fluid-loss reducing agent in virtually all water-based mud systems.

PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES

Appearance Brown powder
Specific Gravity 1.3 g/cm3
Solubility Soluble in water

APPLICATION

  • Reduce HPHT filtration rates and provide thin, tough filter cakes.
  • Reduce the effects of contaminants on drilling fluid properties.
  • Emulsify oil into water-based drilling fluids.
  • Reduce the high viscosity and pH of cement- contaminated muds and react with calcium to lessen the contaminating effects.

RECOMMENDED TREATMENT

  • Add 2 - 12 lb/bbl directly to the mud system through the rig hopper or as a solution through the chemical barrel.
  • For every 4 sacks of NC- LIG, it requires 1 sack of Caustic Soda. Small amounts of it will prevent the hydration of bentonite.

PACKAGING

NC-LIG is packed in 25 kg multi-ply paper sacks, palletized as 40 sacks per pallet.
