PRODUCT SUPPLY
Our Collection of Quality Bentonite Drilling Fluid Additive Products for Your Drilling Operations
We offer a wide range of bentonite clay products tailored to ensure smoother operations, more durable well structures, and minimal environmental impact. The following are our available bentonite products.
Diamond Gel
Diamond Gel bentonite is a viscosifier, lubricant, and fluid loss control additive that is engineered to disperse easily in poor mixing conditions commonly found on coring rigs, eliminating waste due to clumping.
Enviroplug® (Medium and Coarse)
Enviroplug® is an extremely versatile product used for abandoning cased and uncased boreholes, sealing casing, isolating zones, sealing grounding rods and heat pump conductor holes, and much more.
Enviroplug® No. 8 and No. 20
Enviroplug® No. 8 and No. 20 are high-swelling Wyoming sodium bentonite in granular form. Due to their unique molecular structure, they can absorb five times their water weight and swell to a volume of 12-16 times their dry bulk, making them an ideal well sealant.
Extra High Yield™ Bentonite for Non-Oilfield
Our Extra High Yield Bentonite® (EHYB) is a specially peptized high-yield bentonite that disperses and hydrates to provide excellent borehole cleaning capabilities and well-bore stability.
Grout-Well® and Grout-Well® DF
Grout-Well® and Grout-Well® DF are one-step bentonite grouting materials designed to achieve low permeability seals in water wells, monitor wells, geotechnical borings, and heat pump holes.
Hydrogel®
Hydrogel® is designed for use in oil and gas exploration drilling where API 13A Section 9 material is required. It is a 200-mesh viscosity builder, yields excellent fluid loss characteristics, and stabilizes borehole or trench walls.
Micro-Gel™
Micro-Gel® is engineered to promote low fluid loss and increased lubricity, which translates to low jacking pressures. The superior filter cake and gel strengths of Micro-Gel® help ensure the integrity of the tunnel walls is maintained.
NaturalGel®
NaturalGel® is an unpeptized bentonite (sodium montmorillonite) that can expand several times its original volume when placed in water, resulting in higher fluid viscosity, gel strength, and solids-suspending ability.
Tru-Bore®
Tru-Bore® is a highly concentrated bentonite-based drilling fluid used for difficult drilling operations in both vertical and horizontal borings. Tru-Bore® is extremely effective at maintaining hole integrity during pullback and stabilizes formations ranging from moderate clay to high sand concentrations.
Wyoming Gel
Earth Pro Wyoming Gel is used for viscosity and filtration control in freshwater mud systems. The bentonite must first be prehydrated in fresh water in muds with a salinity of 3500 mg/L or higher.
