Bentonite Extender (OCMA)

GLO VIS 2000

Description:

It is a special type high molecular weight polymers and are used in very small quantity to increase the viscosity of OCMA. Bentonite suspension of very low concentration of bentonite in the system.

Application:

With its two-fold yield is able to maintain a given viscosity with one-half the normal clay solids. This is excellent additive for low solid drilling fluids. It also tends to cause drilled solids to form agglomerates and settle out. This further enhance its use as an additive in weighted and unweighted, non-dispersed drilling fluid systems.

COMMON NAME - BENTONITE EXTENDER (OCMA)

Advantages:

• It extends the yield of bentonite and is capable of doubling the yield of bentonite in very concentration.
• Penetration rates areimproved by better solid control.
• Bit bearing life is extended by better solids control.
• Mixing time is reduced due to lower bentonite concentration necessary for required rheology.
• Less wall cake build up due to minimum amount of drilled solids.
