Feature And Benefits
POLYCEL™ LV is effective at controlling fluid loss in most water base drilling fluids with minimal effect on viscosity.
POLYCEL™ LV is resistant to bacterial attack and calcium contamination.
POLYCEL™ LV is stable to temperatures in excess of 149⁰C (300⁰F).
Product Function
POLYCEL™ LV is used to control fluid loss and stabilize rheology in fresh and salt water base, dispersed and non–dispersed drilling fluids.
Recommended treatment
POLYCEL™ LV concentrations in the range of 0.5–4.0 lbs/bbl (1.4–11.4 kgs/m³) are normally required to provide fluid loss control in most water base systems. The actual concentration utilized is dependent upon the drilling fluid composition and properties specified.
