SHALE STABILIZER DRIL-CPG
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
DRIL-CPG is a medium-cloud-point poly glycol designed for high salinity poly glycol systems. It is used to stabilize hydratable and dispersible shale and enhance the lubricating and HT fluid loss control properties of water base drilling fluids. It provides improved wellbore stability and reduces dilution rates and bit balling. DRIL-CPG is compatible for most applications specifying low toxicity additives.
APPLICATION
DRIL-CPG stabilizes shale by adsorbing onto clay surfaces and preventing the water from entering the clay matrix. Improves the performance of PHPA based mud drilling fluids.
ADVANTAGES
Stabilizes reactive formations and helps to increase mud lubricity.
Reduces bit-balling tendencies.
Improves wellbore stability and shale inhibition
Improves lubricity and improves high-temperature filtration control
Reduced dilution rates and mud consumption
Low toxicity and stable
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Physical Appearance: Amber to Dark Brown Liquid
Specific gravity: 1.01 – 1.03
Flash Point (PMCC): Above 110°C
Cloud Point (3% Glycol in 10% NaCl Solution): 65° - 82°C
RECOMMENDED TREATMENT
DRIL-CPG may be used in conjunction with most other common water-based drilling fluid products. Normal dosage ranges from 2 to 5% by volume of the liquid phase or 7 to 17.5 lb/bbl (20 to 50 kg/m3 ). After the initial treatment, periodic treatments should be made to maintain the desired concentration.
PACKING AND STORAGE
DRIL-CPG is packaged in 55‐gal (208‐L) drums. Store in dry, well‐ventilated area. Keep container closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Store away from incompatibles.
DRIL-CPG is equivalent to GLYDRIL-MC
