CT HS300-GEL High Swell Gel

CT HS300-GEL | HIGH SWELL GEL

It is a high yield high swelling bentonite used in drilling which is naturally occurring clay. It has excellent thixotropic/suspension properties with very low filtrate loss, which allows slurry to penetrate deep into cleavages, cracks and clogs the pores and develops good suspensions and friction agent stabilizing the excavations, applicable in high sandy and adverse circumstances. It is Viscosifier and Filtration control agent for water-based Mud Systems. It is used in drilling muds for controlling borehole stability.

ADVANTAGES

• Maintains high suspension properties in high temperature deep drilling

• Helps improve hole cleaning capacities of drilling fluids.

• Its excellent lubrication withstands formation pressure, prevents water seepage into formations.

• Very effective as a filtering agent.

• Promotes borehole stability and It can be added directly to fresh water or fresh water-based drilling fluids
