Feature And Benefits
NO–OX™ 65 is a highly concentrated product and an effective means of controlling oxygen corrosion in water base drilling fluids. NO–OX™ 65 is fast acting and easy to use.
Product Function
NO–OX™ 65 removes dissolved oxygen in clear and solids laden fluids to prevent pitting type corrosion.
Recommended treatment
NO–OX™ 65 should be added at a ratio 10: 1 based on the amount of dissolved oxygen in the system. A NO–OX 65 concentration of 10 ppm will scavenge 1.0 ppm of dissolved oxygen. Normal oxygen concentrations in sea water is 8–10 mg/l. It is recommended that in normal drilling conditions 0.005–0.01 gal/bbl (0.13–0.25 ltr/m³) of NO–OX™ 65 be added to system initially. Monitor dissolved oxygen and sulphite concentration to determine maintenance treatment.
Shipping References
International shipping agencies classify NO–OX™ 65 as corrosive under UN # 2693.
