CLAHIB
CLAHIB is a low molecular weight, highly cationic liquid polyamine designed to stabilize water sensitive shale formations.
- Offers an inhibition mechanism which involves a neutral amine molecular binding to the clay via metal cations.
- Compatible with fresh water, seawater, saltwater, lime and low solids systems.
- Significantly reduces dispersion and hydration of the highly reactive and dispersive shale formations. Consequently, CLAHIB minimizes the incidence of tight hole and washouts.
BORESTIFF GL
BORESTIFF GL liquid gilsonite suspension is specifically formulated to stabilize water sensitive, micro- fractured shales when drilling with water-base drilling fluids. BORESTIFF GL liquid gilsonite seals micro-fracture, reduces dynamic fluid loss and minimizes the potential for differential sticking. Secondary benefits include improved lubricity and reduced accretion from sticky clays. The product has application in most water-base drilling fluids and is acceptable environmentally.

BORESTIFF G
BORESTIFF G is a water dispersible Gilsonite primarily designed to stabilize mechanically weak or fractured shales when used in water-base drilling fluids.
- Stabilizes brittle, fractured or steeply dipping shales by plugging the micro fractures or bedding planes and hence restricting the filtrate invasion.
- Effective HTHP fluid loss control agent providing high quality, thin, compressible and slippery filter cake.
BORESTAB N
BORESTAB N is a Sodium salt of Sulfonated Asphalt designed as shale inhibitor and high temperature fluid loss control additive.
- Forms a though asphaltic film on the water sensitive shales and cuttings, which stops their hydration and dispersion.
- Stabilizes the brittle shales physically by blocking micro fractures and pores in the brittle shales.
- Reduces torque and drag as a result of the lubricating film formed on the well bore.
BORESTAB K
BORESTAB K is a Potassium salt of Sulfonated Asphalt designed as shale inhibitor and high temperature fluid loss control additive.
- Forms a though asphaltic film on the water sensitive shales and cuttings which stops their hydration and dispersion.
- Stabilizes the brittle shales physically by blocking micro fractures and pores in the brittle shales.
- Provides additional shale hydration inhibition by contributing water soluble potassium ion to the drilling fluid.
BOREGLY LC
BOREGLY LC is a low-cloud-point Polyalkylene Glycol used in water-base drilling fluids to improve shale stability and lubricity.
- Stabilizes hydratable and dispersible shales by adsorbing onto clay surfaces and restricting the water penetration into the clay matrix when the system temperature is below the cloud point.
- Forms thermally activated mud emulsion (TAME) near the cloud point and becomes insoluble or clouded out above the cloud point. This phenomenon protects shales by plugging shale pores and preventing the pressure transmission between wellbore and formation.
BOREGLY MC
BOREGLY MC is a medium-cloud-point Polyalkylene Glycol used in water-base drilling fluids to improve shale stability and lubricity.
- Stabilizes hydratable and dispersible shales by adsorbing onto clay surfaces and restricting the water penetration into the clay matrix when the system temperature is below the cloud point.
- Forms thermally activated mud emulsion (TAME) near the cloud point and becomes insoluble or clouded out above the cloud point. This phenomenon protects shales by plugging shale pores and preventing the pressure transmission between wellbore and formation.
BOREGLY HC
BOREGLY HC is a high-cloud-point Polyalkylene Glycol used in water-base drilling fluids to improve shale stability and lubricity.
- Stabilizes hydratable and dispersible shales by adsorbing onto clay surfaces and restricting the water penetration into the clay matrix when the system temperature is below the cloud point.
- Forms thermally activated mud emulsion (TAME) near the cloud point and becomes insoluble or clouded out above the cloud point. This phenomenon protects shales by plugging shale pores and preventing the pressure transmission between wellbore and formation.
BORECAP SLV
BORECAP SLV is a pure powdered low molecular weight partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide.
- Improves wellbore stability by inhibiting the hydratable and dispersible shales.
- Reduces the disintegration of cuttings through polymer encapsulation and hence leading to effective solids control.
- Provides excellent hole-cleaning due to the shear thinning rheology imparted to the drilling fluid.
BORECAP SHV
BORECAP SHV is a pure powdered high molecular weight partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide.
- Improves wellbore stability by inhibiting the hydratable and dispersible shales.
- Reduces the disintegration of cuttings through polymer encapsulation and hence leading to effective solids control.
- Provides excellent hole-cleaning due to the shear thinning rheology imparted to the drilling fluid.
BORECAP L
BORECAP L is a high molecular weight partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide emulsion in mineral oil.
- Improves wellbore stability by inhibiting the hydratable and dispersible shales.
- Reduces the disintegration of cuttings through polymer encapsulation and hence leading to effective solids control.
- Provides excellent hole-cleaning due to the shear thinning rheology imparted to the drilling fluid.
