DRILVIS-102 DRILLING BIOPOLYMER

Product Description:
DRILVIS-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:
DRILVIS-102 Viscosify 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).
