Description
ATTAPULGITE is a naturally occurring clay mineral used as a drilling fluid. ATTAPULGITE complies with API 13A section 12.
RECOMMENDED USE:
ATTAPULGITE is designed for use in drilling fluids whenever ionic contamination from materials such as salts, gypsum, seawater, and cement is encountered or anticipated.
CHARACTERISTICS:
- Superior high yield qualities
- Rapid rate of yield
- May be used with fresh, brackish, or salt make-up water
- Relatively low concentration develops high viscosities
MIXING AND APPLICATION:
Recommended application rate for ATTAPULGITE as a drilling fluid is listed in the chart below. Higher concentrations of ionic contamination may require more ATTAPULGITE.
PACKAGING:
~50 lb (22.7 kg) bags, 48 per pallet. All pallets are plastic-wrapped.
