Water-based drilling fluid additives Hydroxypropyl Guar Gum (HPG) SZWJ API-certified drilling fluid materials

Hydroxypropyl Guar Gum (HPG) is a high-performance, eco-friendly polymer engineered for oil and gas drilling applications. It enhances drilling fluid viscosity, stabilizes borehole walls, and optimizes cuttings transport efficiency in complex geological formations (e.g., fractured zones, high-salinity environments). Compatible with plugging agents (GPC), plugging agents (SFD-1), and weighting agents (e.g., barite), it supports customized drilling fluid systems‌.

1.Product Introduction

Hydroxypropyl guar gum (HPG) is chemically modified from natural bean powder. It has excellent salt resistance and thixotropy, and appears as a white or light yellow powder.

2.Functions and Characteristics

(1)

  • It can significantly increase the viscosity and shear force of the mud, and has a strong ability to suspend and carry sand.
  • It has good compatibility and can be used in combination with other mud materials.
  • It is degradable, non-toxic, and pollution-free, which is conducive to environmental protection.

‌(2)Key Features & Advantages

  • Superior Viscosity Control‌: Rapidly adjusts rheological properties to maintain shear resistance.
  • Thermal Stability‌: Retains performance in high-temperature environments (up to 180°C), ideal for deep wells and dry hot rock exploration‌.
  • Salt Tolerance‌: Effective in saline or seawater-based fluids, preventing viscosity degradation‌.
  • Environmental Compliance‌: Biodegradable formula reduces ecological risks

‌(3)Core Functions

 ‌      Enhances Cuttings Transport‌: Boosts carrying capacit in high-density mud systems‌.

 ‌      Reduces Fluid Loss‌:

 ‌      Prevents Wall Collapse‌: Forms a protective film in loose/fractured formations‌.

 ‌      Synergistic Compatibility‌: Integrates seamlessly withplugging agents (GPC) andmodified asphalt (GLA) for enhanced sealing and lubrication‌.
