It is a Silicon based versatile liquid capable of effectively removing entrapped air from all types of water based mud under severe field conditions in a wide range of operations. It is utilized to reduce surface tension in water based drilling fluids as well as solids free work over and completion fluids. It is Effective at high temperature and at different PH of water based mud. It tolerates high concentration of salts.
It is normally utilized to reduce and control the foaming in brines. It is a silicon based anti foam agent utilized in silicate mud system.
Advantages
It controls foaming in dispersed and non dispersed drilling fluid systems.
It effectively defoams mud containing fresh water or sea water.
It controls foaming in fluid viscosities with polymer.
Helps stabilize pump pressure by removing trapped air a
nd gas, and it is environmentally safe
