VISFLO-SP SUSPENDING AGENT FOR OIL DRILLING
DESCRIPTION
VISFLO-SP Suspension agent is a saturated fatty acid with 18-carbon chain, used to increase the bottom rheology and suspension properties of invert emulsion and all oil drilling fluids. VISFLO-SP suspension agent is a non-clay, organic viscosifier and will require alkalinity to work properly. VISFLO-SP suspension agent can also be used to reduce top-oil separation under static conditions. It is used as a viscosifier suspension agent. It is compatible withall invert emulsion fluids and is stable in temperatures upto 200°F.
APPLICATION
VISFLO-SP is used in drilling fluids primarily as a suspension agent and then to enhance the rheology, ensuring efficient hole cleaning.
It provides optimum hole cleaning and suspension qualities
It helps to control top oil separation and temperature stabilization
ADVANTAGES
It provides excellent suspension without the need for clays.
It is stable up to 200°F
Provides lower high-shear-rate viscosity than other viscosifiers while lowering standpipe pressures and minimizes pressure loss, ECD, and surge and swab pressures
Aids filtration control by slowing the rate of filtration invasion into the formation
