QUIMAGEL XG

Organic polymer that gives drilling mud excellent binding and thickening properties.

Description

Rheological additive with high thixotropy, which is why it is used to drill granular and poorly consolidated levels, achieving good well cleaning.

APPLICATION

QUIMAGEL XG It is mainly used in the drilling of granular material, clays and silts, as long as the medium is not very acidic (pH>5.5). In aqueous solution it forms a highly viscous gel whose main applications are:

  • Facilitate drilling due to its “lubricant” effect.
  • Support and give more stability to the borehole walls.
  • Avoid siphoning when drilling confined groundwater tables at very low pressure.
  • Facilitate the extraction of detritus from inside the borehole.
  • Facilitate the cooling of the bit or drill bit.
Aplicación

QUIMAGEL XG se utiliza principalmente en perforación de material granular, arcillas y limos, siempre que el medio no sea muy ácido (pH>5.5). En solución acuosa forma un gel de elevada viscosidad cuyas aplicaciones principales son:

– Facilitar perforación por su efecto “lubricante”.
– Sujetar y dar más estabilidad a las paredes del sondeo.
– Evitar sifonamiento al perforar niveles freáticos confinados a
muy baja presión.
– Facilitar la extracción de detritus del interior del sondeo.
– Facilitar la refrigeración de la broca o corona de perforación.
