Fluids Systems Additives

Prevent solids from water-wetting to safeguard fluid system stability.

Protect the formation from filtrate invasion and reduce the potential for differential sticking.

Minimize torque and drag to maximize drilling rates and reduce tool wear.

Protect metal surfaces from pitting, fatigue and avoid early failures.

Avoid the hydration of clay, gumbo and reactive clays that cause swelling, wellbore instability, high torque and drag, and stuck pipe.

Mitigate and remediate seepage and partial or complete loss of drilling fluid from the hole into the formation.

Control hydrostatic pressure to equalize downhole pressures.

Create the right flow profile and rheological profile to improve hole-cleaning and ROP.

Alter fluid properties to stabilize the fluid or counteract the effect of contaminants and drill solids.

Equalize pressures or break filter cakes to free differentially stuck pipe.

Control surface foaming and minimize foam formation.

Improve coiled tubing efficiency and treatments designed for CT deployment.
