Description

In new well systems, use Clay Dispersant liquid polymer to break down drilling mud, remove natural clays and speed up well development.

• Clay Dispersant polymer uses liquid dispersant chemistry specifically designed to remove mud and clay from the well environment

• Successfully develops new wells without using phosphates

• Eliminates food source for bacteria (100 percent water soluble, readily flushed from well)

• Rehabilitates old wells plugged with clays, silts and fines

• NSF certified for potable water well use

Pre-treatment and Application

For optimal removal of bentonite drilling fluids, separately pre-treat the well with 1,500 ppm chlorine to break down the polymers that are included in most commercial bentonite products. Thoroughly f lush the chlorine solution from the well. Determine the drilling fluid volume and apply Clay Dispersant polymer at the rate of 1 gal. per 500 gal. of drilling fluid in the system to be broken down and removed from the well. Vigorously agitate by mechanical means for several hours (approximately 1/2 hour per 20 ft. of intake). If left in the well overnight, agitate before pumping out. Allow a minimum of 6 to 8 hours contact time, downhole.

In older well systems use Clay Dispersant polymer to remove fine sands, mud and clays that have filled in the gravel pack and borehole. Use at a rate of 1 gal. per 300 gal. of water. Vigorously agitate (by mechanical means), allowing the solution to stand in the well overnight and repeat the agitation the next day, before pumping out. Allow a minimum of 6 to 8 hours contact time, downhole.
