    This product bulletin describes ID-DRILZONE, an additive designed to improve the rate of penetration when drilling with water-based mud systems, especially with polycrystalline diamond compact bits. It works by keeping cutters clean of drill solids using surface-active agents. This allows continuous contact with the formation and reduces issues like bit and bottom hole assembly balling. Typical application involves adding 1-2% by volume to water-based muds while drilling medium-to-hard shales. The additive is packaged in 55-gallon drums and stored in a cool, dry place.

    PRODUCT BULLETIN

    ID-DRILZONE

    ID-DRILZONE additive is specifically designed to improve the rate of penetration (ROP) in water-base mud
    systems, especially when run with polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) bits. ID-DRILZONE ROP enhancer a
    special blend of surface-active agents to keep the bit free of solids. The chemical makeup of the ID-DRILZONE
    additives assists in removing any buildup of drill solids below the bit, allowing the cutters to make continuous
    contact with the new formation. ID-DRILZONE ROP enhancer not only reduces bit and/or bottom hole
    assembly (BHA) balling, but also lowers torque and drag.

    Typical Physical Properties

    Physical appearance Yellow to brown liquid


    Specific gravity 0.78-0.85

    Application

    ID-DRILZONE ROP enhancer is designed to enhance the ROP performance of water-base mud systems. It is
    especially applicable when drilling medium-to-hard shales in both onshore and offshore operations. For ROP
    enhancement, 1 to 2 % by volume of the ID-DRILZONE additive should be added directly to the mud system at
    near the pump suction over one circulated period. Ideally, the initial treatment should be made prior to drilling
    out of the casing shoe or after a trip before entering the hole while the bit and BHA are clean. After the initial
    treatment, the product should be continually added or injected into the mud stream at the pump suction while
    the bit is drilling.
    Typically, addition rates may range from 15 to 30 gal (57 to 114 L) per hour of drilling. An injection pump
    attached to the low-pressure side of the pump helps control addition rates precisely. ID-DRILZONE
    concentrations of up to 5 to 7 % by volume will not affect drilling fluid properties or environmental toxicity.

    Advantages

     Effectively increase ROP while drilling all shales.


     Improves bit life, reducing the number of trips.
     Reduces torque and drag.
     Improves mud filter cake quality and lowers fluid-loss values.

    Toxicity and Handling

    Handle as an industrial chemical, wearing protective equipment and observing the precautions as described in
    the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

    Packing and Storage

    ID-DRILZONE is packaged in 55 gal (208 Ltr) drums.


    Store in a cool, dry location away from sources of heat or ignition.
