Specialities

Speciality chemicals for drilling fluids

Speciality chemicals solve single problems that sit outside the main mud functions, from hydrogen sulphide to foam and corrosion. Galaxy Drilling Fluids Pvt Ltd supplies 21 products in this category: 17 for water-based mud and 4 for oil-based mud.

Protecting people, pipe and mud

GT Scav and GS Scav Zi remove hydrogen sulphide, with GT Scav being zinc-free and triazine-based. The GS NOX Series removes dissolved oxygen, and the GS CI Series films the steel against aggressive brines. Biocides stop bacteria eating the polymer and starch in the mud.

Conditioning the system

The GS Defoamer Series kills foam, GS Stab Series raises the temperature at which polymers stop working, and GS Col clouding glycols add shale protection and lubricity. On the oil-based side, GS Clay DP is a dry-processed organoclay and GS Mod fine-tunes low-shear thickness and gel strength.

Pills, reservoir and remediation

Kure Pill and the Sure Pill Series are cross-linked polymer pills, and GT Lati Seal seals microscopic cracks and shale pores. Gel SS 20 is a drill-in fluid that stays out of the reservoir rock, and GS Thermo Chem generates heat downhole to clear damage and deposits.

Product designations and classifications are those of the manufacturer. Descriptions explain the function of the chemistry and are not performance specifications. Technical data sheets and certificates of analysis are issued with quotation. Galaxy Drilling Fluids Pvt Ltd is a supplier of these products.

Water Based 17

  • Kure Pill

    Crosslinked polymer pill

    Cross-linked soft cellulose polymer. Controls loss of clear brine to the formation during cased-hole completion and workover.

  • Sure Pill Series

    In-situ cross-link polymer pill package — with retarder and accelerator

    Pill that cross-links in place to seal fractures, with retarder and accelerator to time the set.

  • GT Lati Seal

    Sealing nano-emulsion

    Nano-emulsion that seals microscopic cracks and shale pores.

  • GT Scav

    Triazine-based H₂S scavenger

    Removes hydrogen sulphide gas. Zinc-free, so mud weight and thickness are unaffected.

  • GS Scav Zi

    Zinc-based H₂S scavenger

    Zinc-based hydrogen sulphide remover. Fast-acting for high concentrations.

  • GS NOX Series

    Oxygen scavenger — NOX, P, SF, EB grades

    Removes dissolved oxygen so it cannot corrode pipe and casing. Four grades.

  • GS CI Series

    Corrosion inhibitor — PF, P, Plus, OS, HT, CV, CT grades

    Corrosion inhibitors that film the steel and protect it in aggressive brines. Seven grades.

  • GS Bio AM / AL / TZ / GS Cide

    Biocide

    Biocides. Stop bacteria eating the polymer and starch in the mud, and protect mud and brine in storage.

  • GS Col L / M / H

    Clouding glycol — low, medium and high cloud point

    Cloud-point glycol. Adds shale protection and lubricity. Three cloud points.

  • GS Stab Series

    Polymer temperature extender / polymer stabilizer

    Raises the temperature at which the mud's polymers stop working.

  • GS Defoamer Series

    Defoamer — S, A, G, P grades

    Kills foam in the mud system. Four chemistries.

  • GS Foam CB

    Additive for foam drilling

    Generates stable foam for underbalanced and air drilling.

  • GS RAA

    ROP enhancer

    Reduces cuttings sticking to the bit, so drilling goes faster.

  • GS ACIP

    Acid precursor

    Solid acid source that releases slowly to clean the area around the wellbore.

  • GS NE 615

    Non-emulsifier / demulsifier for acidization

    Prevents emulsion blocks forming during and after acid jobs.

  • Gel Sil EPL

    Eco-friendly, for sodium silicate mud

    Eco-friendly additive for sodium silicate mud, used on very unstable shale.

  • Gel SS 20

    Non-invasive fluids

    Drill-in fluid that stays out of the reservoir rock, protecting future production.

Oil Based 4

  • GS Clay DP

    Organoclay, dry processed

    Dry-processed organoclay – the conventional thickener and suspension agent.

  • GS Micro-Clean

    Micro emulsion for OBM

    Micro-emulsion cleaner – high cleaning efficiency with less spacer volume.

  • GS Mod

    Rheology modifier

    Fine-tunes low-shear thickness and gel strength.

  • GS Thermo Chem

    Thermal chemical well remediation system

    Generates heat downhole to clear damage and deposits around the wellbore.

Frequently asked questions

What removes hydrogen sulphide from drilling mud?

An H2S scavenger. Galaxy Drilling Fluids Pvt Ltd supplies GT Scav, which is triazine-based and zinc-free, so mud weight and thickness are unaffected, and GS Scav Zi, a fast-acting zinc-based grade for high concentrations.

Why add a biocide to drilling mud?

Bacteria eat the polymer and starch in water-based mud, so a biocide protects the mud and brine, including in storage. Galaxy Drilling Fluids Pvt Ltd supplies GS Bio AM, AL and TZ, and GS Cide.

How do you stop polymers breaking down in a hot well?

A polymer temperature extender raises the temperature at which the mud’s polymers stop working. Galaxy Drilling Fluids Pvt Ltd supplies the GS Stab Series for this purpose.
