SMD Drilling Viscosifier VIS is a premium grade purified high viscosity, high molecular weight polymer, used as an effective viscosifier and reduce fluid loss to water-based drilling fluids.

Drilling Viscosifier VIS is a premium grade purified high viscosity, high molecular weight polymer, used as an effective viscosifier and reduce fluid loss to water-based drilling fluids.

Advantages:

• Effective in fresh water, salt water, and brine-based fluids
• Controls fluid loss
• Inhibits hydratable, swelling shale
• Environmentally compatible
• Does not require a bactericide
• Extends life of foam or stiff foam in air drilling

Recommended Treatment:

Add Drilling mud additives VIS in concentration of 1.4 to 5.7 kg/m³ (0.5 to 2.0 lb/bbl) to any active system. Mix slowly through a jet mixer or sift slowly into the vortex of a high-speed stirrer.

Applications:

Controls filtration rates
Retards shale swelling and disintegration
Rapid increase in viscosity
