Shale Inhibitor KLACAP is a low-molecular-weight, dry acrylamide copolymer which is used primarily as a shale inhibitor in water based drilling fluids system. It can provide cuttings encapsulation very well.

Application

• Can provide excellent cuttings encapsulation
• Effective in A wide range of base brines including seawater, saturated NaCl, and CaCl2.
• Need less shear when mixed
• Provides minimal viscosity contribution
• Enhance filtration properties

Advantages

• Strongly effective shale inhibitor
• Can provide excellent cuttings encapsulation and limits cutting dispersion
• Environmentally acceptable
• Provide improved shale stabilization
• Have less effect on the viscosity of the system
• Lower screen blinding potential

Recommended Treatment

Add Klacap in concentrations of 1.5-3.0 lb/bbl (4.28-8.56 kg/m3) Mix slowly through a jet mixer or sift slowly into the vortex of a high-speed stirrer.
