Organoclay gel strength improvement
Organoclay gel strength improvement – Camp-Shinning thixotropic organoclay for stronger gel networks
Camp-Shinning organoclay improves gel strength in drilling muds, delivering robust suspension, sag control and enhanced low-shear rheology stability.
Gel strength is essential for maintaining suspension and preventing barite sag during static intervals, trips and circulation breaks. Camp-Shinning’s organoclay is engineered to significantly enhance both primary and secondary gels in OBM and SBM systems. Its optimized thixotropic structure builds a stable gel network that maintains integrity under HPHT conditions while ensuring smooth flow when shear is applied.
Inadequate gel strength can lead to severe operational challenges, including sag and uneven density distribution.
When engineers evaluate Camp-Shinning organoclay and see its ability to strengthen gel profiles and retain structure at temperature, interest rises quickly.
As real drilling results confirm fewer sag incidents and more stable suspension, the desire to adopt Camp-Shinning’s gel-strength-enhancing organoclay becomes compelling.
🔹 FAQ – Organoclay gel strength improvement
Q1: How does organoclay improve gel strength?
By creating a stronger thixotropic network that reinforces low-shear structure.
Q2: Does it prevent sag in high-angle wells?
Yes—effective for deviated and horizontal wells.
Q3: How does temperature affect gel performance?
Camp-Shinning organoclay remains stable under HPHT.
Q4: Does higher gel strength affect pumpability?
No—its thixotropy ensures flow resumes smoothly when sheared.
Q5: Is it compatible with barite-heavy muds?
Yes—designed for weighted OBM/SBM.
