Pure-Bore is a dry free flowing polymer that mixed with water produces a natural biodegradable drilling fluid, which can be used in a variety of drilling applications.
Pure-Bore provides exceptional bore hole stability and cuttings removal in a wide range of ground conditions.
Functions:
- Biodegradable drilling fluid
- Effective in all ground conditions (one sack drilling fluid)
- High viscosity for efficient hole cleaning
- High Yield Point and Gel Strength for maximum cuttings suspension and transport
- Provides exceptional bore hole stability in unconsolidated formations
- Provides clay and shale inhibition
- Minimises formation damage
- Maximises production rates
- Can be cleaned down through regular de-sanders
Benefits:
- NON-TOXIC
- Fast and efficient mixing in fresh and salt water
- Stable whilst drilling
- Recycles
- 3 Kilos of Pure-Bore provides the same viscosity as 60 Kilos of civil engineering
- grade bentonite or 25 Kilos of high yield bentonite
- Naturally biodegrades (stabiliser can be added to retard biodegradation)
- Can be chemically destroyed with calcium hypochlorite
- Low cost slurry disposal. Destroy or Biodegrade the Pure-Bore™ polymer to settle out
- drilled cuttings in a settlement pit. The fluid phase can then be treated at a sewage
- treatment works leaving semi dry cuttings
How prepare it:
Add slowly and uniformly through a high-shear venturi type hopper. Continue to agitate/circulate until Pure-Bore is fully dispersed
Mixing Ratios:
- Consolidated Formation (Clay/Shale): 2-4 Kgs/M3
- Unconsolidated Formation (Sand/Gravel): 3-7 Kgs/M3
Pure-Bore Degradation:
- Calcium hypochlorite (65% active): 1-3 Kg/M3
Packaging:
Pure-Bore is packaged in 5Kg clear plastic bags (5 x 5Kg bags per cardboard case).
