SHALEHIB ULTRASHALE AND CLAY STABILISER
AMC OIL & GAS DRILLING AND COMPLETION FLUIDS
DESCRIPTION
SHALEHIB ULTRA is an amine based product that provides superior
shale and clay inhibition in polymer based dr illing uids.
Effective in formations containing shale and reactive clay SHALEHIB
ULTRA reduces the potential for bit balling, torque and drag as
well as other clay and shale related issues. All this is delivered by
a product that has a minimal chloride content, making it far more
environmentally acceptable than the inhibitor typically used for
inhibition, potassium chloride.

ADVANTAGES
Prevents swelling of clay and shales
Provides excellent shale inhibition
Very low chloride content
Environmentally acceptable
Compatible with most water based systems
Temperature stability >400°F
Prevents bit ballin
Reduces torque and drag
Has no adverse effect on viscosity or uid loss control
Maintains cuttings integrity.
APPLICATION
SHALEHIB ULTRA is a liquid inhibitor that acts as a clay hydration
suppressant by restricting the space between clay platelets,
preventing water molecules from entering which normally results
in clay swelling.
It is important to observe the condition of cuttings at the shakers,
sticky or soft cuttings may indicate insufcient inhibition as a result
of depleted SHALEHIB ULTRA.
TYPICAL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Appearance: Clear pale yellow liquid
Specic gravity: 1.0 – 1.2
pH: 9 – 11
Solubility in water: Soluble
RECOMMENDED TREATMENT
SHALEHIB ULTRA should be added to the system before drilling
into the troublesome shale or hydratable clay section.
The recommended concentration is 1 – 4 % by volume, with
concentration ultimately depending on shale reactivity and the
amount present in the section to be drilled.
SHALEHIB ULTRA is consumed as the formation is drilled and a
proper concentration must be maintained. For optimum results,
monitor penetration rates, rheology, dilution and solids control and
adjust hourly treatment as necessary.ey remain static with excess mud.
Several factors will dictate the most appropriate concentration rate.
Please contact your nearest AMC representative for optimum results.
