HME
Energizer® - - - PURPOSE AND PROPERTIES
HME Energizer
is a non-ionic surface active agent that provides uniform particle
separation of drilling fluid additives. It is specifically formulated
to water-wet asphalts, shale stabilizers, lubricants, and spotting
fluids in all water based muds. HME Energizer can often cure
existing flotation of asphalts and shale stabilizer additives. It
also helps to prevent oil-wet barite in underbalanced horizontal
drilling applications.

ADVANTAGES:
- Maximizes
performance of drilling fluid additives
- Water-wets
asphalts and other shale stabilizer products
- Helps blend
lubricants and spotting fluids into the active system
- Helps prevent
oil wetting of barite
- LC50 value
of 1 million @ 0.50 ppb in generic mud #7
HOW TO USE:
Drip feed 0.2
to 0.4 ppb HME Energizer at pump suction to maintain homogenous
drilling fluid. Or alternatively add one can for every 8 to 10 sacks
of asphalt.
To cure flotation
of asphalts or other shale stabilizer products, distribute 5 to
10 gallons of HME Energizer over the surface of each pit
and agitate. Several treatments may be necessary depending upon
severity.
To incorporate
lubricants and spotting fluids into the active system, first blend
0.25 to 0.50 ppb of HME Energizer into the active system.
To help prevent
oil wetting of barite, blend 0.25 to 0.75 ppb into the active system
depending upon severity.
HME Energizer
is packaged in 24 gauge steel 5 gallon (U.S.) pails
