Modified sodium bentonite for HDD
The product is a special mixture of sodium bentonite and polymers, for HDD operations. It provides a rapid increase of rheological parameters (viscosity, solids-removal capacity), maintainance of the wellbore wall stability, reduction of fluid loss into the soil.
The use of Modified sodium bentonite ensures:
• Viscosity growth;
• Effective solids-removal capacity;
• Loss control, well stability;
• Effective lubricity.
Advantages:
• Short tempering time;
• Increased lubricity to reduce traction pull;
• Low sand content.
Specification:
