Organophilic clay for high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) wells
organophilic clay for high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) wells – extreme-condition viscosifier for OBM/SBM
HPHT-grade organophilic clay designed for high-pressure high-temperature wells, offering strong suspension, thermal stability and reliable rheology in extreme drilling conditions.
Our organophilic clay for high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) wells is engineered to withstand extreme thermal and mechanical stresses encountered in deep and ultra-deep drilling applications. It maintains viscosity, gel strength and suspension capabilities at temperatures up to ~230°C and under intense pressure gradients.
This HPHT-grade organoclay disperses efficiently in diesel, synthetic and low BTEX base oils, delivering stable rheology curves, improved emulsion durability and reliable performance in challenging downhole environments.
HPHT wells require drilling fluids capable of performing under extreme temperature and pressure. When engineers evaluate our HPHT organoclay and observe its excellent viscosity retention, emulsion integrity and suspension capability, interest sharply increases.
As real-field conditions confirm reduced sag, better thermal stability and improved pressure management, the desire to adopt this specialty grade becomes evident. Supported by global supply and consistent oilfield-grade quality, it becomes the premier choice for HPHT operations.
