AUS-TROL

VISCOSIFIER/FILTRATION CONTROL

DESCRIPTION
AUS-TROL is white granular organic polymer that forms a clear, colloidal solution in fresh or salty water.

    APPLICATIONS/FUNCTIONS
    AUS-TROL is a protective colloid which inhibits the hydration of water sensitive formations, improving core recovery in diamond drilling applications. AUS-TROL reduces pump pressure, rod torque, vibration and improves bit life.

    AUS-TROL can be used with AUS-GEL, CR-650 and LIQUIPOL to give a complete core recovery fluid that is solids free. It can also be used to make up stiff foam in air drilling operations.

    ADVANTAGES

  • Effective - Improved core recovery in most difficult drilling conditions.
  • Economical - Saves on freight costs, storage and mixing time.
  • Versatile - Works in fresh or salty water and reduces filtrate loss to improve hole stability through sensitive clays.
  • Environmentally Friendly - AUS-TROL is non toxic and does not ferment. The product is colourless, odourless and tasteless in water.

    RECOMMENDED TREATMENT

  • 2 - 3kg per 1000 litres - To make up complete drilling fluid
  • 0.5 - 1.0kg per 1000 litres - To stop rod vibration, reduce torque and lower circulating pressure
  • 1 - 2kg per 1000 litres - To improve foam performance and hole condition
