• Exceptional lubricity for reduction of torque, drag, differential sticking, bit balling & bit wear
• Enhances shale inhibition and stabilization
• Superior high temperature fluid loss control
• Builds a thin, tough and slick filter cake
• Improves cleaning of drill cuttings
• Reduces corrosion on drill strings
• Extends bit life and decreases mud pump downtime
• And it’s environmentally friendly!

Use conventional mud hopper system, and/or “bleed” into circulating mud system while drilling.

Also can mix “slugs” in 25-barrel premix tank and blend slowly into circulating mud system. Recommended concentrations of 1% to 2% by volume of mud system are suggested.

In oil mud systems, the amounts of the two primary emulsifiers can often be reduced by 10-25%, thus lowering cost of the oil mud.

It is recommended the drilling fluid specialist conduct tests to support these reductions.

Loss of the lubricant due to coating of drill- cuttings, loss on walls of the wellbore, and losses due to dilution-disposal of mud volumes, require attention be given to daily additions of BLACK DIAMOND.

Consider adding 1 to 2 drums slowly over 12-hour periods and adjust with experience.
