POLYMERS & ADDITIVES
Able to handle any complex drilling conditions, the diverse line of polymers and additives at CETCO continue to assist contractors in the most difficult soil conditions. CETCO polymers and additives consistently deliver the highest performance therefore adding significant value. Having an extensive line of high quality and reliable additives, CETCO will assist you in improving the performance of all of your drilling operations.
DRILL-TERGE™ is liquid solution of non-ionic surfactants formulated to increase detergency and wetting properties of drilling fluids. Designed to work in fresh or saltwater to reduce torque and drag.
HERCUL-X is a proprietary additive that is used in conjunction with bentonite based drilling muds. With proper formulation, the system will produce a unique drilling fluid with excellent shear thinning characteristics. At low shear or at rest, the fluid will gel and allow for suspension of large cuttings, yet thins immediately under pumping conditions. At rest, HERCUL-X fluid looks and behaves like a semi- solid, but when sheared, even slightly, will revert back to a thin, almost water-like consistency. HERCUL-EZ® is designed to be compatible with CETCO bentonite – SUPER GEL-X®, PREMIUM GEL® R.
HERCUL-X Technical Data
HYDRO-PAC™ is a dry hybrid-polymer drilling fluid. HYDRO-PAC is an innovative breakthrough in drilling fluids and containment fluids due to its ability to use saltwater as the hydrating mix water.
INSTA-PAC™ is a highly concentrated liquid polymer designed for fast field mixing and drilling applications to increase viscosity and inhibit hydration of clay and shale.
INSTA-VIS™ PLUS is a liquid polymer designed to improve drilling efficiency in both horizontal and vertical drilled holes through its rapid field mixing, viscosity development, and clay and shale inhibition.
INSTA-VIS™ DRY is an easy mixing, water soluble, high molecular weight anionic polymer.
This granular polymer improves drilling efficiency in both horizontal and vertically drilled holes by controlling shales and clays, improving lubricity, and increasing viscosity.
INSTA-VIS™ DRY Technical Data
MACRO-FILL™ is a granular, advanced super-absorbent material that rapidly absorbs and retains large volumes of water from aqueous solutions.
REL-PAC® Natural cellulosic, granular polymer designed for building a low solids drilling fluid with increased stability. Forms a tight, thin filter cake that reduces fluid loss to the formation.
REL-PAC® Technical Data
SODA ASH is the common name for sodium carbonate, which separates calcium into sodium and carbonate ions in solution.
SUPER PAC™ is a multi-purpose liquid polymer designed for minimizing fluid loss to the formation. Enhances properties of bentonite drilling fluids and creates optimum drilling efficiency through filtration control.
SUSPEND-IT™ is a dry biopolymer used to increase suspension of drilling cuttings in difficult formations. Enhances gel strength without significantly increasing viscosity.
