BK-192F is an organoclay (tetraallkyl ammonium bentonite) for oil-baseddrilling mud (fluid).
1. Advantages: ☆Impart viscosity and suspension propertiesto oil-based drilling fluids. ☆Used to gel oil drilling fluids for long-term suspension of weighting agents in drilling and packer fluids. ☆Stable at temperatures approaching 204ºC ☆Aids in filtration control ☆Usually preferred in diesel oil based fluids. Should not be used in high performance clay-free oil based drilling fluids.

3. Typical Applications: Helps viscosify any oil-based drilling fluid Helps improve hole cleaning during drilling and workover operations Gel oil muds for long-term suspension of weighting agents in packer fluids and casing packs
4. Typical Treatment: Add 1-15lb/bbl (2.86-42.80kg/m3) of BP-500A-2 viscosifier slowly through the hopper. Note:Decrease yielding time by adding a small stream of water through the hopper at the same time.
