Application of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose in petroleum exploitation


Release time:

2023-11-30

Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is used in oil and natural gas drilling, well digging and other projects ① CMC-containing mud can make the well wall form thin and firm, low permeability filter cake, so that the water loss is reduced. After adding CMC to the mud, the drilling rig can get a low initial cutting force, so that the mud is easy to release the gas wrapped in it, and the debris is quickly discarded in the mud pit. The drilling mud and other suspended dispersion, has a certain period of existence, after adding CMC can make it stable and prolong the existence period.
