Product Description
Premium Bentonite CX GEL is widely used in the mineral exploration, pipe jacking, and water well drilling industries as a primary filter cake building, filtration control, and suspension agent in freshwater systems. It provides great stability even in poorly consolidated formations and prevents fluids loss during the filter cake-building process and is extremely effective viscosifier in fresh and brackish water. It can also be used alongside other drilling mud products.
Advantages:
Stabilizes the borehole
Improves hole-cleaning capacity of drilling fluids
Reduces fluid loss into the formation
Is environmentally responsible
Recommended Industries:
Mineral Exploration
Pipe Jacking
Water Well Drilling
Recommended Treatment:
Add bentonite viscosifier CX-GEL in concentrations of 0-25 lb/bbl (0-50 kg/m³) to any active system. Mix slowly through a jet mixer or sift slowly into the vortex of a high-speed stirrer.
