Agents for Industrial Water
BDC - Model Polymer EM35 - Drilling Fluid Viscosity Enhancer
Polymer EM35 is a high molecular weight polymer designed to enhance the viscosity of drilling fluids, crucial for effective shale inhibition and carrying capacity in various drilling environments. The product is especially adept at integrating into both sweet and slightly saline water, making it versatile for different geological conditions. Its formulation is environmentally considerate, being readily biodegradable, which aligns with sustainable drilling practices. When added to water-based drilling muds, it operates efficiently within a dosage range of 0.6 to 3 liters per cubic meter, with lower dosages acting as a flocculant. The Polymer EM35 is packaged in various sizes to meet specific operational needs, including 25 kg plastic drums, 200-liter steel drums, and 1000-liter IBC containers. This adaptability and eco-friendliness make Polymer EM35 a valuable component in optimizing drilling operations by managing viscosity and reducing waste.Bentonite Materials
BDC - Model Swellgel Plus - Bentonite for Trenchless Technology
Swellgel Plus Bentonite is a high-quality, modified bentonite specifically engineered for trenchless technologies, including long-distance horizontal directional drilling (HDD) and tunneling. The product functions as a drilling fluid, optimizing viscosity and plasticity under diverse geological conditions. This premium grade bentonite is characterized by robust rheological properties at a 3% suspension and is commonly used in concentrations adapted to specific HDD applications. Available in 25 kg bags or larger 600kg and 1000kg Big Bags, Swellgel Plus Bentonite is ideal for professionals in the oil and gas, geothermal, HDD, and microtunneling industries. It aids in efficient drilling operations and waste management by minimizing the use of consumables and offering tailored mud services. The product is backed by laboratory testing services to ensure optimal performance for varying project requirements.Cementing Agents
BDC - Gas Seal for Cementing
Gas Seal from BDC is a high molecular weight polymer solution, intended to control or prevent gas migration following primary cementing operations and in critical cement plugs. It is effective in combination with anionic additives such as lignosulphonate retarders and friction reducers, and laboratory testing is advised to prevent synergistic effects or precipitation. With a freezing point of -10°C, its application is adjustable with methanol additions. The recommended usage is between 5 to 20 liters per 100 kg of cement, typically around 10 liters, contingent on cement type and quality. Gas Seal maintains compatibility with various cements, including Portland, Slag, and Pozzolan, even in high salinity and calcium chloride conditions. Proper storage requires room temperature and tightly closed containers. It is marketed in 1050 kg IBCs or 125 kg drums.
