Feature And Benefits
K-WET is a powerful oil wetting agent for invert emulsion drilling fluids.

Product Function
K-WET is a highly effective oil wetting agent which also contributes to emulsion stability and HTHP fluid loss control.
Recommended treatment
The normal treatment for K-WET is 1–2 lbs/bbl (3–6 kgs/m³) dependent upon solids content of the drilling fluid.
Shipping References
International shipping agencies classify K-WET as a combustible liquid under UN Number 3082.
