GLO ASP 3000
It is a modified sodium sulphonated
asphaltic compound that stabilizes shale, inhibits
dispersion of drilled solids, reduces torque and
drag and acts as an alternative to oil usage etc.
and aids emulsification.
Application:
For shale control, fluid loss control and for
lubricity improvement.
COMMON NAME - SODIUM SALT OF SULPHONATED ASPHALT
Advantages:
- It is compatible with all water base mud systems.
- Improves lubricity thereby reducing torque
and drag of chilling string.
- Prevents bit and down hole assembly bailing
by preferentially oil wetting the drill string.
- Seals small fractures in stressed shale formulation.
- Contributes to corrosion inhibition.
