Wellbore Stability Benefits

Effective emulsifier in oil-in-water muds and will provide some emulsification and dispersing properties for liquid lubricants.
Can be used to stabilize salt-contaminated muds.
Particularly effective as a high temperature filter loss additive in water
base mud systems.
Highly effective HTHP water loss reduction results in thin, tough, lubricated filter cake development
Can be used to disperse hydrocarbonbased lubricants in water base muds.
Decreases borehole erosion, washouts and key-seating tendencies.
Reduces BHA balling problems.
