Applications

Driscal D® Polymer is a high performance

synthetic polymer specifically designed to provide
HPHT fluid loss control in water-based drilling,
completion and workover fluids that are subjected
to extreme conditions of temperature, salinity and
hardness.
Features and Benefits
Recommended Treatment
The dosage of Driscal D® Polymer depends on the
application and temperature. Treatment amounts
range from 0.5 to 5.0 lb/bbl. Lab pilot tests are
recommended to optimize the rheological
properties and fluid loss.
