Organoclay for low-shear-rate viscosity
Organoclay for Low-Shear-Rate Viscosity – Camp-Shinning Organobentonite for Strong Gel Development
Users searching for “organoclay for low-shear-rate viscosity” want a clay capable of building strong gels even when pump rates decrease or circulation stops.
Camp-Shinning Organophilic Clay is engineered to create a robust three-dimensional network that significantly enhances viscosity at low shear rates, helping drilling fluids suspend barite, prevent cuttings settling and maintain wellbore stability.
As drilling engineers observe how quickly Camp-Shinning Organobentonite forms primary and secondary gels—without compromising pumpability—they naturally recognize its value in HPHT wells, long horizontals and weighted OBM/SBM systems.
This performance advantage drives both technical confidence and procurement interest.
Organoclay for low-shear-rate viscosity
Camp-Shinning organoclay delivers exceptional low-shear-rate viscosity, strengthening gel structure and suspension performance in OBM and SBM drilling fluids.
✅ FAQ – Organoclay for low-shear-rate viscosity
Q1: Why is low-shear-rate viscosity important in drilling?
It controls suspension when pumps slow down or during static periods.
Q2: How does organoclay build low-shear gel strength?
It forms layered plate networks that interlock under reduced shear.
Q3: Does it improve sag resistance?
Yes—strong low-shear viscosity significantly reduces barite sag.
Q4: Is it suitable for high-density systems?
Camp-Shinning grades are specifically optimized for weighted muds.
Q5: Does it affect pumpability?
No—its thixotropic behavior maintains smooth flow when shear resumes.
