LUBEDRIL-EX EXTREME PRESSURE BIT LUBE

DESCRIPTION

CT LUBEDRIL-EX is an environmentally friendly specially formulated Oil-based lubricant, designed to reduce torque & drag and to lower the potential of bottom hole assembly balling in all water base mud under extreme pressure conditions. Its extreme pressure lubrication properties were designed for the extreme operating parameters of diamond bits, results in improved bit life and improved penetration rates. It imparts extreme pressure lubricating properties to the drilling fluids and prevents wall sticking


APPLICATION

CT LUBEDRIL-EX forms a soft film on the drill string and borehole, and very effective in controlling rod vibration in diamond drilling. It is very effective in sodium silicate-based drilling fluids without disturbing any properties. It readily emulsifies drilling into the mud systems thereby reducing torque and drag of the drill string and enhances the cooling effect.


ADVANTAGES

  • It reduces torque & drag.

  • Biodegradable & very cost effective.

  • Extends Bit Life and improves penetration rates.

  • It will not adversely affect rheology or gel strength.

  • It is stable at high circulation temperatures and does not undergo chemical degradation.

  • It may help in Shale inhibition.

  • It is dispersible in water-based muds and high compatibility with most additives.


PROPERTIES

Appearance: Brownish Black Liquid

Specific Gravity: 0.9 – 0.95

Solubility: Slightly Soluble in Water

Toxicity: Non-Toxic

Temperature Stability: Above 300 °F

Flash Point (PMCC): 99 °F


RECOMMENDED TREATMENT

CT LUBEDRIL-EX may be added directly to the sump or injected into the circulating system. It should be used at a concentration of 1 to 2% by volume by optimum performance. It mixes very easily to form an emulsion in most water types.


PACKING

CT LUBEDRIL-EX is packed in 55 gal HDPE or Steel Drums.
