Bore Drill P

Mud Thin is a mud thinner and deflocculant that provides the cleanest and most effective mud viscosity control.

ADVANTAGES

• Quick make-up and thinning action
• Non-foaming
• Functions over a wide pH range
• Contributes to fluid loss control
• Reduces mud viscositywithout mud dilution

PROPERTIES

Appearance           Amber Liquid
Specific Gravity    1.3 g/cm³
Bulk Density         10.8 lb/ft³
pH                           6.5-7.5
Temp. Stability     >400°
Solubility                Miscible

APPLICATION

Mud Thin enhances and improves filtration rate control, functions at virtually all pH levels, and is non-toxic it also contains no heavy metals. It prevents bit balling and mud rings it also reduces viscosity and gel strenghts.

MIXING

Bit Balling / Mud Rings

• ½ gallon to 1 gallon of Bore Thin per 500 Gallons

Thinning

• Slowly add Mud thin to mud until desired viscosity is achieved

Sand Zan is a 4.0 lb/gal active, high purity xanthan gum slurry. It is used to design low-solids fluids that have effective carrying and suspending properties. Sand Zan is effective in most water-based fluid applications for rheology modification, solids suspension, and improved hole cleaning.

ADVANTAGES

• Readily disperses to enable mixing in low shear environments
• Excellent stability in brines
• Enhances gel strength and an effective viscosifier
• Transports Larger cuttings, Gravel and cobble over long bores
• Strengthens filer cake and improves bore stability
• Effective over a wide pH range

PROPERTIES

Appearance                            Tan to light brown slurry

Specific Gravity                     1.04 to 1.08

Density                                    8.67 to 9.01 lbs/gal

pH (1% soln. in water)         6.0 to 8.0

Flash Point                             >230°F (>110°C)

Solubility in Water                Soluble

Active content                        4.0 lbs/gal

APPLICATION

Designed to enhance gel strength of the drilling fluid for improved suspension and transporting of drill cuttings, gravel, and cobble on long bores. Sand Zan will perform effectively in fresh or saltwater.

MIXING

Treatment

• 1 Gallon of Sand Zan treats 500 gallons of water

Recommended Fluid Formulation sand and cobble (Per 500 Gal)

• 2 LBS SODA ASH
• 50 LBS GEL

NOTES:

Sand Zan can be added to enhance the suspension capability of the fluid. Sand Zan enhances the wall cake to keep the formation better isolated. Add soda ash at a rate of 1 LBS per 100 gallons to treat water prior to mixing other additives. Soda ash will enhance the yield of your additives.
