This product has a black color and is soluble in water suited to drilling with water-based fluids in hot environments. It has a sulfonic acid group, which makes it useful as a treatment for plugging, inhibition, collapse, drag reduction, and lubrication. It is very well hydrated. The suggested dosage is 2–4% .
Benefits
It keeps the shale formation stable.
prevents drilling solids from dispersing.
prevents water loss at high temperatures.
produces cake with a firm and thin wall.
high emulsion forms when oil is applied.
controls the shear force.
decreases the down-hole fluid loss caused by temperature changes and aids in preventing corrosion.
increases lubricity, which lowers torque and drag.
