Our custom-formulated fluid systems and additives help operators enhance drilling efficiency while decreasing costs and mitigating HSE impact.
With a suite of viscosifiers, fluid loss control agents, lost circulation material, lubricants, and much more, M-I SWACO has the extensive portfolio of advanced solutions and in-depth expertise to help you meet your operational goals—no matter the job’s challenge, location, or size.
Adjust and regulate the degree of acidity or alkalinity of drilling fluids.
Mitigate corrosion, neutralize hazardous acid gas, and prevent the formation of production-impairing scale.
Control foam and air entrainment while maintaining environmental acceptability.
Reduce infiltration of the liquid phase of the drilling fluid.
Seal costly loss zones and preserve operational integrity.
Reduce fluids coefficient of friction to minimize torque and drag.
Free differentially stuck pipe with our spotting or soaking agents.
Enhance drillability while maintaining low toxicity for environmental acceptability.
Reduce interfacial tension between water/oil, water/solid, water/air, and other contacting surfaces.
Increase the rheological and filtration property stability of drilling fluids.
Reduce rheological properties by dispersing active clays and drilled solids.
Improve the hole-cleaning and solids-suspension capability of drilling fluids.
Control formation pressures, prevent caving, and facilitate dry pipe pulling.
Strengthen wellbore and minimize lost circulation to permit drilling in narrow hydraulic windows.
