Gelling Agent and Viscosifier
Product Description
Organophilic Clay ORGEL Plus is an organically modified bentonite used as a gelling and viscosifying agent for primarily diesel-based drilling fluids. This improved version will function effectively in synthetic based drilling fluids.
Application/Function
ORGEL Plus is used in the 2-10lb/bbl (5.7-28.5 kg/m3) range depending on the desired viscosity properties and the type of base oil used. Also, diesel base fluids will show faster yield, so when synthetic oils are used, it is important to not over-treat the system upon initial mixing.
Advantages
Provides gel structure and viscosity for the suspersion of weight materials
Increase viscosity for improved hole-cleaning capacity
Improve filter-cake quality and filtraction characteristics
Effective gelling agent and in casing packs and packers fluids
