CT-DBP-102 Drilling Biopolymer

Product Description:

CT-DBP-102 is a high molecular weight specially formulated biopolymer. It is used to viscosify water-based drilling and completion fluids for cuttings transport and suspension. It is primarily a viscosity modifier for freshwater and Salt Saturated Muds.


Applications:

CT-DBP-102 viscosifies fresh water and brine-based fluids used for drilling, milling, under reaming, and gravel packing operations. It suspends bridging agents and weighting materials in fresh water and brine systems.


Advantages:

It helps disperses easily in fresh water muds, and brines.

It can provide thixotropic properties and non-Newtonian flow characteristics over a wide salinity range at low concentrations.

It provides excellent suspension without the need for clays.

It is stable at temperatures up to 300°F (148°C).
