Feature And Benefits
TRUPAC™ R provides supplementary viscosity and reduce filtration rate in fresh water and salt based drilling fluids.
TRUPAC™ R is effective over a wide pH range and has a high tolerance to contamination.
TRUPAC™ R has a strong affinity for clay surfaces and will restrict their hydration and dispersion.
TRUPAC™ R is not susceptible to bacterial degradation.
TRUPAC™ R has shown to be effective in field applications at bottom hole temperatures up to 300⁰F (149⁰C).
Product Function
TRUPAC™ R is cost effective means of controlling fluid loss and increasing viscosity and improve quality of filter cake in water base drilling fluid systems.
Recommended treatment
TRUPAC™ R concentrations in the range of 0.5–2.0 lbs/bbl (1.43–5.71 kgs/m³) are required to control filtration rate. Addition must be made slowly and evenly through a hopper at rate of 10–20 minutes every 25 kgs sack.
Shipping References
Transportation of TRUPAC™ R is not restricted by any regulatory agency.
