The MARSH FUNNEL is an instrument used to measure drilling fluid viscosity, commonly used with the AMC MEASURING CUP. The MARSH FUNNEL is molded from a tough, durable plastic that resists breaking or cracking. A brass orifice assures consistency in all readings.
The density or weight of a given volume of liquid can be determined by using the AMC MUD BALANCE. The balance is constructed so that the fixed volume cup at one end of the beam is balanced by a fixed counterweight at the opposite end, with a sliding weight rider free to move along the graduated scale. A level bubble mounted on the beam indicates when the system is in balance.
pH PAPERS (PAPEL PH) measure the acidity or alkalinity of drilling fluids.
PORTLAND CEMENT is a low temperature Sulfate Resisting Cement Type SR, with many applications and capable of setting, hardening and remaining stable in accordance to Australian Standard “AS 3972 – 2010”.
POTASSIUM CHLORIDE (KCl) is a soluble salt that is an extremely efficient shale stabiliser when drilling hydro sensitive clays and shales. Inhibition is provided through ion exchange; the potassium ion enters between the individual clay platelets in the shale so that they are held together, thus eliminating entry of water from the drilling fluid.
The SAND CONTENT KIT is a simple and accurate sieve analysis tool used to determine the sand content of drilling fluids.
SODA ASH is a free flowing powder also known as sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) used in a fluid system to precipitate calcium (hardness) and increase alkalinity (pH).
Sodium Chloride (NaCl) is a widely available commercial chemical that can be used as a weighting agent to increase fluid density up to 1.2sg (10lb / gal). It is predominately used for formulating clear, solid free work-over and completion fluids. Sodium chloride can also provide inhibition to formations containing water sensitive clays and shales.
