Product Description
PAC LV is a premium grade purified low viscosity, water soluble polyanionic cellulose, designed to reduce API filtration rate to water-based drilling fluids. PAC LV can meet requirement of M-I SWACO, HALLIBURTON, BAKER HUGHES, Chevron and the API 13A Section 17 Specification.
Advantages
- Effective in fresh water, salt water, and brine-based fluids
- Controls fluid loss
- Inhibits hydratable, swelling shale
- Environmentally compatible
- Does not require a bactericide
- Is stable at temperatures up to 300°F /149°C
Applications
- Very effective filtration controller in non-dispersed systems
- Minimal viscosity contribution
- Resistant to micro-bacterial attack without biocides
- Applicable over a wide range of fluid types
- Contributes to shale stabilization
Recommended Treatment
- Add PAC-LV in concentration of 0.7-1.9lb/bbl (0-5.5 kg/m³) to any system. Mix slowly through a jet mixer or sift slowly into the vortex of a high-speed stirrer.
