SMD Drilling Powder Viscosifier BIO VIS is a premium biopolymer that offers superior solids suspension and hole cleaning for all drilling applications. Its unique thixotropic formula also provides effective mud filtrate viscosity.
Advantages:
Helps disperses easily in fresh water mud, and brines
Provides thixotropic properties and non-Newtonian flow characteristics
over a wide salinity range at low concentrations
Provides excellent suspension without the need for clays
Minimizes the potential for formation damage
Recommended Treatment:
Add BIO VIS Sin concentration of 1.0 to 3.0 kg/m³ (0.4 to 1.1 lb/bbl) to drilling fluid. Mix slowly through a jet mixer or sift slowly into the vortex of a high-speed stirrer.
Applications
Viscosify fresh water and brine-based fluids used for drilling, milling,under-reaming, and gravel packing operations.
Suspend bridging agents and weighting materials in fresh water andbrine systems.
