Well Bore Strengthening Both for WBM & OBM
Wellbore strengthening with mixed metal oxide
Wellbore strengthening treats a weak hole before it breaks down, so that losses are prevented rather than cured afterwards. Galaxy Drilling Fluids Pvt Ltd supplies GS MMO, a mixed metal oxide listed for both water-based and oil-based mud.
Preventing losses rather than curing them
Weak or depleted formations can fracture under the pressure of the mud column. Once a fracture opens, it takes more mud and more time to deal with. Wellbore strengthening aims to deal with the weakness ahead of the loss.
How GS MMO behaves
GS MMO is thin under pump pressure and thick at rest. That combination is what makes it useful here: the fluid moves easily while circulating, and it holds when the pumps stop.
