Rheological Additive for drilling muds and working fluids
BENTONE 34 rheological additive is the pioneering organoclay first used by the oil service industry to take advantage of the temperature resistant rheology characteristic of organoclays.
Application
Viscosifying drilling fluids including:
Oil-based drilling muds
Invert emulsion muds
Packer fluids
Completion fluids
Workover fluids
Based on:
Mineral oils
Low toxicity oils and fluids
Synthetic Oils
Diesel oil
Crude oil
Key Properties
- Confers superior downhole stability to muds and cost–effectively builds viscosity and yield point
- Suspends weighting materials and other solids
- Improves cuttings carrying capacity and hole cleaning
- Increases emulsion stability
- Aids control of fluid loss to the formation
- Confers temperature stability to the fluid
- Is not harmful to the environment
