SUPER GEL-X®
- Drilling
Fluid |
Recommended Use:
May be used for all types of
freshwater mud rotary
drilling.
Characteristics:
• Highly concentrated for
maximum yield.
• Mixes quickly and easily.
• Reduces solids and
increases lifting power.
• Removes cuttings.
• Cools and lubricates bit.
• Stabilizes boreholes.
• Helps prevent loss
circulation.
Mixing and Applications:
Mixing ratios are based on
200 bbl. yield material
using freshwater.
Level of water purity will
affect bentonite
performance. Prior to
mixing, acidic and hard water
should be treated with soda
ash to a pH of 8.5-9.5. For
best results, add Super
Gel-X® slowly through a
jet/hopper mixer.
Super Gel-X® mixing ratios
in pounds per 100 gallons of
water:
Normal
conditions...........…15-25
lbs
Sand and
gravel................25-35
lbs
Fluid loss
control...............35-40
lbs
Bulk Density :
54
lbs./ft.
Packaging:
50 lb
multiwall, water-resistant
bags, 48 bags per pallet.
All pallets are
plastic-wrapped.

 PureGold® Gel
Description:
PureGold® Gel is a
minimum 90 bbl. yield,
organic-free, untreated, high
quality bentonite drilling fluid
designed for the groundwater
monitoring
industry. PureGold Gel® is
certified to NSF/ANSI Standard
60, Drinking
Water Treatment Chemicals -
Health Effects.
Recommended
Use:
PureGold® Gel is recommended for
environmental rotary drilling
where
ambient groundwater quality and
soil chemistry must be
maintained.
Characteristics:
-
Contaminant
free. All 116 priority
pollutants tested were below
TCLP detection limits.
-
Chemically stable. Results
from TCLP Metals Analysis are
below
RCRA limits for hazardous
constituents.
-
Mixes quickly to achieve
required viscosity
-
Stabilizes and supports
borehole wall.
-
Removes cuttings and cavings
from the borehole.
-
Seals borehole wall to reduce
fluid loss and impedes interaquifer
groundwater movement.
-
Lubricates and cools drilling
bit.
Mixing and
Applications:
PureGold® Gel can be used in
fresh or salt-water mud systems.

 Hydraul-EZ®Horizontal Directional Drilling
Fluid Description:
Hydraul-EZ® is a
high yield, 200-mesh sodium
bentonite clay with a
special dry polymer additive. It
is designed to maintain borehole
integrity in horizontally
drilled boreholes. Hydraul-EZ is
certified to
NSF/ANSI Standard 60, Drinking
Water Treatment Chemicals -
Health
Effects. Recommended
Use:
Hydraul-EZ® is specially
designed for conditions
encountered in angle
and horizontal drilling. It can
be used for all types of
freshwater mud
rotary drilling and as a jacking
lubricant.
Characteristics:
-
Mixes
quickly
-
Requires less material due to
low fluid loss properties.
-
Concentrated for high yield.
-
Forms a tight, thin filter
cake in unstable formations.
-
Maintains borehole integrity
in horizontal and vertically
drilled holes.
-
Eliminates clay and shale
swelling, bit balling and
sticking problems.
Mixing and
Applications:
Mixing ratios are based on the
use of fresh water. Water purity
will
affect bentonite performance.
For best results, make-up water
should
be pre-treated with soda ash to
a pH of 8.5-9.5. Hydraul-EZ®
should
be added slowly through a
jet/hopper mixer.
Hydraul-EZ® mixing ratios in
pounds per 100 gallons of water:
Normal conditions……………….20-30
lbs.
Sand and gravel………………….30-40
lbs.
Fluid loss control…………………40-60
lbs.
Bulk Density:
54 lbs./ft.³
Packaging:
50 lb. multiwall,
water-resistant bags, 48 bags
per pallet. All pallets
are plastic-wrapped. |
