CP-II is an economy grade, organo-modified clay rheological additive recommended for use in oil-based muds. In addition to imparting excellent rheological properties, it increases the carrying capacity and hole cleaning capabilities of the drilling fluid. CP-II also has the secondary benefits of improving filtration control and emulsion stability.
Recommended Use
CP-II is recommended for drilling fluids utilizing diesel as the base oil and where the bottom hole
temperatures will not exceed 360 °F (185 °C).
