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 kg/m³) or more.
