Applications
TheIDCAPDadditiveprovidesexcellentcuttingsencapsulationbyadsorbingontotheclay surfacesandformingaprotectivefilmthatpreventscuttingsfromstickingtoeachotherortothe shakerscreens.TheIDCAPDencapsulatorlimitsdilutionratesandlowgravitysolidsloadingby preventingclaysolidsfromdispersingintothemudsystem.Theproductiseffectiveinawide rangeofbasebrinesincludingseawater,saturatedNaCl,andKCl,butshouldnotbeusedin calciumbrines.TypicalconcentrationsoftheIDCAPDadditiverangebetween24lb/bbl(5.7to 11.4kg/m3). Duetothelowmolecularweightofthispolymer,themixingprocessrequireslessshearthan polymerswithhighermolecularweights.Theresultingfluidwillpassthroughfineshaker screenswithoutblinding.TheIDCAPDagentshouldbeaddedtothemudsystemviapremix,to ensureproperhydrationandshearing,butcanbemixeddirectlyintotheactivesystemifneeded.
