CARBONOX, powdered leonardite, can be used to aid in filtration control and control viscosity and gel strengths of water-based drilling fluids.
CARBONOX can also be used to emulsify oil into water-based fluids.
* Applications/Functions:
- Reduce the viscosity and gel strengths of drilling fluids to maintain desirable flow properties
- Reduce high-temperature/high-pressure filtration rates
- Minimize the effects of contaminants on drilling fluid properties
- Emulsify oil into water
*Advantages:
- Maintains continued thinning efficiency and filtration control even at high bottomhole temperatures
- Is thermally stable at temperatures above 400'F (205'C)
- Retards solidification at high pH levels
- Is versatile and economical
- Forms a thin, tough filter cake |
