Glamin

Modified xanthan polymer

ТУ 2458-001-14023401-2008

Glamin is a high-purity water-soluble xanthan biopolymer with high molecular mass. It is designed for use as stabilizer of drilling fluids on the water basis of any kind of mineralization.

It is delivered in the multi-layer paper or polypropylene sacks of 25 kg on palettes of 1,000 kg.

Purpose

Glamin regulates rheology of drilling fluids, providing their exclusive cutting and carrying capacity. The Glamin additive impacts unique pseudo-plastic properties to drilling mud, namely, the capacity to thin down at high shear rates and form a gel at low speeds of flow. Glamin is biodegradable. It is recommended for drilling of deviated and horizontal sections, as well as reservoir penetration.

Recommendations to application

Glamin is evenly dosed into drilling fluid via funnel with speed of 20 to 30 minutes per bag. Recommended concentration is from 1.0 to 5.0 kg/m3 , depending on the required viscosity. To perform the drilling fluid technological characteristics under long-term use and storage, it is recommended to be treated with the Biocidol biocide.
