SULFATONE
SHALE STABILIZER  

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION : SULFATONE has been one of the leading sulfonated asphalts modified over the past twenty years.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS: SULFATONE has been successfully used all along the Gulf Coast in areas where troublesome shale was a major problem. SULFATONE can work in any type mud system and is very effective at stabilizing formations and for fluid loss control.

APPLICATION: SULFATONE is a complete additive for reducing HT/HP filtration loss and forms a thin flexible filter cake reducing torque and drag. SULFATONE seals small fractures in stressed shale formations and works well with fine LCM materials such as Seal to minimize spurt loss or seepage into a permeable zone.

SULFATONE aids in maintaining a gauge hole where wash out would be a problem. The controlled particle size allows a mat to form on the surface of the well bore effectively plugging off porous formations.

RECOMMENDED TREATMENT: Recommended treatment for SULFATONE is 2-6 lb/bbl.
