BENTONITE

90 Barrel Yield Bentonite

90 barrel yield bentonite is a high quality Wyoming, powdered sodium bentonite used in slurry wall construction, soil sealing and other hydraulic barriers. This product conforms to API Specification 13A, Section 9 and Section 10.


High Yield Bentonite

High Yield Bentonite is a premium Wyoming bentonite blended with special extenders, producing a product that will yield more than twice as much viscosity as a 90 barrel yield bentonite. High Yield Bentonite is easily mixed with freshwater and is used to rapidly build mud viscosity and provide superior hole cleaning, as well as to help control lost circulation, and promote hole stability in unconsolidated formations.

 

Bentonite Chips

Bentonite Chips are high quality, untreated Wyoming sodium bentonite particles, size 3/8' and 1/2", used to plug holes or as a lost circulation material.

 

POLYMERS

HERCULES CDP

HERCULES CDP is a fast mixing high molecular-weight polymer designed for cuttings encapsulation and shale stabilization. It was developed for use in low solids to weighted muds in fresh and salt make-up water. Hercules CDP enhances solids removal by flocculating low gravity solids and increasing viscosity while improving the overall wellbore stability. 


HERCULES CDP acts as a viscosifier, friction reducer, and flocculant.


PAC LV

PAC LV is a high quality polyanionic cellulose polymer designed to control fluid loss while increasing the viscosity of the drilling fluids ever so slightly.

PAC HV

PAC HV is a high quality polyanionic cellulose polymer designed to control fluid loss while increasing the viscosity of the drilling fluids.

PAC DHV

PAC DHV is a high quality dispersible polyanionic cellulose polymer designed to control fluid loss while increasing the viscosity of the drilling fluids.

BIOPOLYMERS

TROL LV

TROL LV is a combination of high-quality, water-soluble bio polymers designed to control fluid loss and slightly increase viscosity in water-base muds.

XANTHAN GUM

XANTHAN GUM is an easy mixing premium grade biopolymer. The small addition of this biopolymer to water based systems enhance the suspension and carrying capacity as well as slightly increase the viscosity of both bentonite and polymer based drilling fluids.

LOST CIRCULATION

MAGMA FIBER FINE

Magma Fiber Fine is an acid-soluble loss of circulation material is a specially-formulated, extrusion-spun mineral fiber, which when sheared and dispersed within the base fluid creates a lattice network of fibers across encountered zones of permeability and porosity to reduce whole loss of fluid to the formation.

 

THINNERS

DRILLTHIN 1.0

DRILLTHIN 1.0 is a fast acting phosphate-free mud thinner. This concentrated liquid polymer works quickly to breakup mud rings and clay deposits.

CIVILTHIN 2.0

CIVILTHIN 2.0 is a fast acting liquid dispersant formulated specifically for cement and bentonite slurries. 

 

WATER TREATMENT

SODA ASH

Soda Ash is used to condition and soften make-up water and raise pH, allowing drilling fluid additives to mix more efficiently.

SODIUM BICARBONATE

Sodium Bicarbonate is a white, crystalline powder that is commonly used as a pH buffering agent. 

AQUA AMMONIA  

Aqua Ammonia (Ammonium Hydroxide) is a water solution of ammonia, and assay is determined by weight of ammonia in water. Each batch is tested for strength, color, and clarity. 

SOLIDIFICATION and DISPOSAL

Solidifi

Solidifi is a fast acting solidification agent designed to work with the spoils produced by construction and drilling projects.
