Bentonite Clay is most commonly known for its use as a major component of drilling mud, particularly for Oil/Gas wells.
When exposed to water, Bentonite, characteristic of all clays, swells considerably, making it ideal for protecting subterranean formations from invasion by the other drilling fluids making up the mud by providing a thixotrophic effect.
Benefits :
Shear thinning nature of the clay helps to remove cuttings from well.
Improved Filtrate Loss helps to Seal permeable formations.
Optimum Filtrate Loss helps to Maintain well-bore stability.
Best fit for any drill formation.
Work as Lubricant and coolant for the drill/cutting bits.
