Drilling industry
Depending on the specific requirements, different medium and high viscosity grades of Sinocell are used during the exploration of oil and natural gas.
Very important is the use of Sinocell for borehole cementing where its water retention ability is used and also during particular steps in the process (completion, workover and stimulation) in the respective fluids.
For cementing, low viscosity Sinocell grades are recommended, whereas for stimulation, completion and workover medium to high viscosity grades are required.
Sinocell is used in the production of crude oil and natural gas. Its enormous water retention capability and electrolyte tolerance makes Sinocell a powerful fluid loss additive for borehole cementing. Higher viscous Sinocell grades are suitable additives during the drilling process steps stimulation, completion and workover.
