Bore Phalt S is a sodium asphalt sulfonate made water soluble by a unique sulfonation process. It is a versatile total mud conditioner that stabilizes shale formations, significantly increases lubricity, and lowers HTHP water loss. Bore Phalt S enhances filter cake properties in both oil and water based muds.

• Minimize damage to productive formations
• Reacts with shale to prevent or stop sloughing and swelling
• Significantly increases lubricity
• Environmentally acceptable
• Extremely temperature stable
• Inhibits dispersion of drill solids

• Stabilize shale formations 3-6 ppb
• Lubricity 1-3 ppb
• Reduce Torque & Drag 1-3 ppb
• Control HTHP fluid loss 2-6 ppb
• Produce thin, strong, compressible wall cake 2-4 ppb
• Emulsify oil into water based muds 1-3 ppb
• Control shear strengths 2-6 ppb
• General hole conditioning (differential sticking) 2-6 ppb

It is advisable to add 50% more one day following initial treatment to ensure adequate concentrations due to the fact that Bore-Phalt S is consumed on drilled solids and on the well bore.
