FM25 Operator’s Manual Drilling Fluid Concepts - 39 Polymer Polymer This drilling fluid additive provides excellent lubrication and increases viscosity in average soils and heavy clay. In swelling clay, polymer can reduce swelling that traps pipe in the bore. There are two types of polymer: • long chain such as Baroid EZ-Mud • medium chain such as Baroid Quik-Trol Bentonite Bentonite is a dry powder.
FM25 Operator’s Manual Drilling Fluid Concepts - 40 Mixtures Mixtures NOTICE: Bentonite does not mix well in water containing polymer. To use both, mix bentonite first, then add polymer. • If chemicals are added in the wrong order, they will not mix properly and will form clumps. • If tank contains bentonite/polymer mix and more drilling fluid is needed, completely empty tank and start with fresh water before mixing another batch. General mixing order 1. Soda ash 2. Bentonite 3. Polymer 4.
