LIQUITROL® OBM filtration control agent is a liquid polymeric product composed of 50% active component in a solvent that is compatible with the conventional OBM systems. LIQUITROL® can be blended easily through a mud hopper or can be added directly into the active system. It is a polymer suspension, may provide secondary viscosity to the mud system.
Description
LIQUITROL® OBM filtration control agent is a liquid polymeric product composed of 50% active component in a solvent that is compatible with the conventional OBM systems. LIQUITROL® can be blended easily through a mud hopper or can be added directly into the active system. It is a polymer suspension, may provide secondary viscosity to the mud system.
Applications/Functions
- lowers HTHP fluid loss in invert emulsion drilling fluids
- easily dispersible in the mud system due to its liquid nature
- does not significantly affect the rheology of the drilling fluid
- improves emulsion stability
Advantages
- can be used in heavy muds
- can be added directly into the active mud pit
- can be blended with all types of invert emulsions
- can be used independently or in conjunction with organo-lignite CLOTONEX® and asphaltene STABILITE®OBM
Recommended treatment
5-10 ppb (14-28 kg/m3) depending on the desired fluid loss properties
Well cost
Total well cost is normally lower due to the high performance and versatility of the product
Typical properties
Dark brown liquid with the characteristic odor
Handling
Please refer to the MSDS for specific instructions
Packaging
LIQUITROL® is packaged in 200l drums or IBCs.
