CT-GIL-L Liquid Gilsonite Shale Inhibitor
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
CT GIL – L is a shale stabilizer, lubricity modifier, and fluid loss additive for use in most water-based drilling fluids. It is made from blended natural hydrocarbons. It is a liquid product that rapidly disperses in water based fluids. The product mixture helps seal water sensitive shales as well as bridging micro-fractures and permeable zones.
APPLICATION
CT GIL-L has been extremely effective in Lignosulfonate, Potassium and PHPA mud systems. It stable to 204°C (400°F) and reduces API, HTHP, dynamic filtration, spurt-loss values.
ADVANTAGES
· It improved lubricity, wellbore stability & Shale inhibition.
· Environmental acceptable.
· It reduced fluid loss at high temperatures.
