Sun's CoastaLube®
Outstanding PAO Performance
Downhole!
CoastaLube®
is a high performance drilling fluid lubricant for water-based drilling systems,
utilizing a polyalphaolefin (PAO) synthetic hydrocarbon base.
CoastaLube®
is an environmentally safe lubricity additive with a secondary function of well
bore stability and shale inhibition. PAOs are man-made and contain no
aromatics or the adverse properties of traditional mineral and diesel oils.
Sun's CoastaLube®
enhances the performance of drilling mud in low-pressure situations by coating
the formation and drill string as well as acting as a boundary layer lubricant
in high temperature and pressure applications.
CoastaLube® is readily dispersible and compatible with
salt water based systems.
CoastaLube®
has proven successful in solving problems relating to angle building, angle
dropping, kick-off point difficulties, and mud motor drag.
