Earth Pro Claymean L is a drilling fluid additive (organic liquid amine) that is used for chemical inhibition of water sensitive clay and shale formations.
Low chlorides within Earth Pro Claymean L, alternate to KCI or Salt Brines for the prevention of hydration of clays and shale encountered while drilling.
Earth Pro Claymean L prevents drill hole enlargement from washout and sloughing and is best suited for use in polymer based drilling fluids. Maximum effectiveness is achieved at a pH of less than 9.
