Wetting Agent
Data Sheet:
PENETROL water miscible, non-ionic wetting agent is designed to help counteract the sticking tendencies of clay.
Applications and Functions
- Reduce or eliminate bit balling
- Reduce surface tension of drilling fluid, which allows faster chip removal without continuously grinding the hard shale formations
- Improve drilling efficiency by preferentially coating the bottom-hole assembly and drill string
- Minimize differential sticking
- Increase bit life and reduce drill pipe and bottom-hole assembly wear
Advantages
- Easy to mix
- Effective in low concentrations
- Compatible with other Baroid drilling fluid additives
- Biodegradable
