China Suppliers and Factory for UBDrill-242: Advanced Viscosifier for Oil-Based Mud Rheology Solutions
Product Introduction
UBDrill-242 is a high-performance polymeric material acting as a rheology modifier for oil-base mud.
It is specifically designed for oil-based drilling fluid (OBM) systems 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.

- 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).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is UBDrill-242 and how does it function?
UBDrill-242 is a polymeric rheology modifier designed for oil-based drilling fluids. It functions by enhancing the low-shear-rate viscosity (LSRV) and yield point (YP) of the mud system, which helps improve cutting transport and suspension capabilities.
Does UBDrill-242 affect the plastic viscosity (PV) of the drilling fluid?
No, UBDrill-242 is specially formulated to improve low-end rheology and yield points while maintaining a minimal impact on the plastic viscosity (PV) of the mud system.
Is UBDrill-242 compatible with other oil-based mud additives?
Yes, it is fully compatible with standard oil-based mud additives and modern invert emulsion drilling fluid systems without affecting emulsion stability or HTHP fluid loss.
What is the typical dosage for UBDrill-242?
The dosage varies depending on the specific water/oil ratio and the density of the OBM system. A pilot test is always recommended to determine the optimal dosage for your specific drilling conditions.
How should UBDrill-242 be packaged and stored?
It is packaged in 200L drums and should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated area. Ensure containers are kept tightly closed and stored away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials.
