shale inhibitors & flocculants

Shale Inhibitors and Flocculants are vital components in modern drilling fluid systems. They are used to manage shale reactivity and solid particle behavior, ensuring wellbore stability and efficient drilling performance—especially in water-sensitive formations or high-clay-content zones.

  • Reduces bit balling and stuck pipe incidents

  • Improves wellbore stability in reactive formations

  • Enhances cuttings transport and separation

  • Controls dispersion and dilution rates
