These lubricants are the special type of
additives when mixed in drilling fluids impart lubricating
properties into metal & metal to bore hole contacts
under extreme pressure conditions. These are specially
used indirectional & crooked holes, deeper holes
and packed hole where frictional forces tend to
be relatively high to reduce the loss of mechanical
power.
GLO
EP 1000
Description:
It is a water soluble lubricant designed to
reduce torque & drag and to lower the potential
of bottom hole assembly balling in all water base
muds under extreme pressure conditions..
Application:
It is specially used in directional and crooked
holes, deeper holes, packed holes, where frictional
forces tend to be relatively high to reduce the
loss of mechanical power.
COMMON NAME – EXTREME
PRESSURE LUBRICANT (WATER BASED)

Description:
It is a non toxic, Bio-degradable torque reducer
for specialized blend of treated vegetable oils
and food grade paraffin. It is formulated for
sodium silicate based drilling fluids aiding in
minimizing torque drag, differential sticking
tendencies and shale inhibition. It is used in
sodium silicate mud systems for extreme alkaline
condition with non foaming properties.
Application:
It is 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.
COMMON NAME – EXTREME
PRESSURE LUBRICANT (SODIUM SILICATE MUD)
Advantage:
- It shows no foaming tendency.
- It is not affected by other mud additives.
- It helps in shale inhibition.
