Product Description

SHALEMUL® P emulsifier is a liquid blend of organic fatty acids which provides a stable water-in-oil emulsion, improved thermal stability and enhanced HPHT filtration control. It serves as the primary emulsifier for SHALEDRIL™ diesel or mineral oil-based drilling fluid system specially applied in shale gas and tight oil blocks. It requires the addition of lime to produce a calcium soap in-situ.

Applications/Functions

  • Stabilizes brine-in-oil emulsions using calcium chloride or calcium bromide brine
  • Improves the dispersion character of particles in high-density fluids
  • Promote oil-wetting in invert emulsion systems
  • Effectively disperses high-density particles in emulsions to alleviate settling

Advantages

  • Effective at low concentrations
  • Temperatures stable to > 350°F (177°C)
  • Compatible with other oil-based and synthetic mud additives and systems

Typical Properties

  • Appearance: Dark liquid
  • Flash point: >199°F (93°C)
  • Pour Point:<14°F (-10°C)
  • Specific gravity: 0.93

Recommended Treatment

  • A typical range is 4-12 ppb (11.4-34.2kg/m3)
  • For every pound of SHALEMUL® P that is added to the system, add 0.5 ppb of lime

Package

  • 55GAL (208L)/DRUM or 180KG/DRUM
