Viscosifier
Organic clay SMG1 for diesel-based fluids
Application and advantages
SMG1 is an organically modified bentonite used as a gelling and viscosifying agent for primarily diesel-based drilling fluids.
SMG1 is used in the 2-10lb/bbl (5.7-28.5 kg/m3) range depending on the desired viscosity properties, mixing system, and temperature. Higher concentrations are used when preparing spotting fluids, packer fluids or other special systems. Maximum viscosity is normally attained after a complete circulation of the fluid thru the bit, so care must be taken not to over-treat upon initial mixing.
