China OBM Viscosifier UBDrill-242: Suppliers & Factory for High-Performance Oil-Based Mud Rheology Solutions
Product Introduction
UBDrill-242 is a polymeric material acting as rheology modifier for oil-base mud.
UBDrill-242 is a polymeric rheology modifier designed for oil-based drilling fluid (OBM) systems. It is primarily used to enhance low-shear-rate viscosity (LSRV) and yield point (YP) of invert emulsion systems while maintaining a minimal impact on plastic viscosity (PV).
The product is engineered to improve low-end rheology and suspension capacity without significantly affecting other key mud properties such as emulsion stability and HTHP fluid loss. It is fully compatible with standard oil-based mud additives used in modern drilling fluid systems.

Applications & Functions
- High-performance oil-based drilling fluid systems (OBM / SBM)
- Deep and high-temperature drilling operations
- Weighted mud systems requiring improved suspension stability
- Wells prone to barite sag or poor solids transport
- Extended static or long-reach drilling sections
Recommended Handling
A typical dosage is according to the ratio of water/oil and density of OBM, but a pilot test is required for optimal results.
All personnel handling this material must handle it as an industrial chemical, wearing protective equipment and observing the precautions as described in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
Packaging and Storage
- Packaging: 200L/Drum
- Storage: Store in dry, well-ventilated area. Keep container closed. Keep away from heat, sparks and flames. Store away from incompatibles. Follow safe warehousing practices regarding palletizing, banding, shrink-wrapping and /or stacking.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is UBDrill-242 and how does it function?
UBDrill-242 is a polymeric rheology modifier designed for oil-based drilling fluid (OBM) systems. It functions primarily by enhancing low-shear-rate viscosity (LSRV) and yield point (YP) of invert emulsion systems.
Does UBDrill-242 significantly increase plastic viscosity (PV)?
No, UBDrill-242 is engineered to enhance low-end rheology and suspension capacity while maintaining a minimal impact on plastic viscosity (PV).
What are the primary applications of UBDrill-242?
It is ideal for high-performance oil-based drilling fluid systems (OBM / SBM), deep and high-temperature drilling operations, weighted mud systems requiring improved suspension, wells prone to barite sag, and extended static or long-reach drilling sections.
How should UBDrill-242 be dosed?
A typical dosage is determined based on the water/oil ratio and the density of the oil-based mud (OBM). However, conducting a pilot test is highly recommended to achieve optimal results.
What are the packaging and storage requirements for UBDrill-242?
UBDrill-242 is packaged in 200L drums. It must be stored in a dry, well-ventilated area with containers tightly closed, kept away from heat, sparks, flames, and incompatible materials.
