PRODUCT DESCRIPTION NC-100 stabilizer is a low molecular weight, non-ionic 100% active dry polymer for use as a clay inhibitor in water-based drilling fluids. PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Off-White Powder pH 6.5-7.5 (5% aqueous solotion) Specific Gravity 1.04g/cm3 Solubility Soluble APPLICATION NC-100 shale stabilizer helps strengthen shale and lubricate the wellbore. The polymer adheres to the surface of reactive clays preventing dispersion and hydration.. RECOMMENDED TREATMENT A shale stabilizer should be mixed through the hopper for best results in the NC-MAX system. If salinity >140,000 ppm, use 2 lb/bbl (5.6 kg/m³), if salinity <140,000 ppm use 3 lb/bbl (8.4…
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION INHABI-L is a successful borehole stabilization and HPHT fluid-loss control product. It strengthens the well bore, minimizing washout and spurt loss. INHABI-L stabilizes the borehole, the drilling fluid and the wall cake. PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Black liquid Specific Gravity 1.08g/cm3 Solubility Soluble APPLICATION Improves filter cake texture and compaction. Enhances borehole stability. Assists in sealing depleted formations. Compatible with most water based fluids. RECOMMENDED TREATMENT INHABI-L can be mixed directly in mud systems. Additions of INHABI-L are best accomplished by adding the product directly through the suction tank or the rig hopper; however, the product can…
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION G-PLUS F provides a thermally stable fluid-loss additive for high or low temperature wells. Based on extensive lab tests and field applications, it is known that a specific particle size will seal the face of porous sands and other formations, helping reduce the differential pressure transfer. G-PLUS F graphitic particles are sized to effectively reduce fluid loss. G-PLUS F has a very high meting point, unlike resins or gilsonite based products. This carbon-based material has been treated temperatures over 600°F (315°C) providing excellent thermal stability downhole. PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Black/Gray free flowing graphite particle Specific Gravity…
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION GLYCOL S is cloud-point polyakylene glycol formulation. It is designed for high- to saturated-salinity GLYDRIL systems and can be used in wells with moderate to high formation temperatures. It is used in water-based drilling fluids to improve lubricity and shale stability. PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Colorless Liquid Specific Gravity 1.07-1.10g/cm3 Boiling Point 260°C Flash Point >200°C Solubility Soluble APPLICATION GLYCOL S is cloud-point additive for high salinity fluids, range salinity (greater than 90,000 mg/l Cl-) and can be used in wells with moderate formation temperature. GLYCOL S stabilizes reactive formations, increase lubricity of the drilling fluid, reduce…
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION GLYCOL MC is medium-cloud-point polyakylene glycol formulation. GLYCOL MC is used in water-based drilling fluids to improve lubricity and shale stability. It is recommended for use in potassium-based and sodium-based salt (2-15 percent by weight). PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Clear, Amber Liquid Bulk Density 0.9g/cm3 Boiling Point 260°C Flash Point > 100°C Solubility Miscible in water APPLICATION GLYCOL MC is a medium-cloud-point additive for high salinity fluids, range salinity (30,000 - 90,000 mg/l Cl-) and can be used in wells with moderate formation temperature. GLYCOL MC stabilizes reactive formations, increase lubricity of the drilling fluid, reduce bit-balling…
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION GLYCOL-LC is low-cloud-point polyalkylene glycol formulation. It is used in water-based drilling fluids to improve lubricity and shale stability. It is recommended for use in potassium and sodium based salt (5-22 percent by weight). PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Pale yellow to brown liquid Specific Gravity 1.0g/cm3 Boiling Point > 292.2°C Flash Point > 204.4°C Solubility Insoluble in water APPLICATION GLYCOL-LC is a low-cloud-point additive designed for low salinity range salinity fluids (< 30,000 mg/l Cl-). It can provide significant reductions in mud dilution rates, reduced friction coefficients, less mud related drilling problems and enhanced rates of penetration.…
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION CLAYSURE is clay inhibitor and fixative for polymer-based drilling, completion, and workover fluids. CLAYSURE is a solution of multivalent, non-volatile organic amine in water. PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Appearance Clear odorless liquid pH 9 - 10 Specific Gravity 1.07g/cm3 Boiling Point 100°C Solubility Soluble APPLICATION CLAYSURE is an effective clay inhibitor for water-sensitive formations. CLAYSURE has a small radius of hydration and is easily substituted on the exchange sites for the sodium ion, thereby effectively blocking the site for water hydration. CLAYSURE is designed to be used at pH values of 10.5, or less. FEATURES Excellent biodegradability (>60%…
