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.

 

Uses

¨      Reduces torque and drag

¨      Minimizes bit balling

¨      Decreases friction and wear

¨      Minimizes differential pressure sticking

 

 

Advantages and Benefits

¨      Non-toxic

¨      Non-sheening

¨      Base fluid thermal stability > 600°F (315°C)

¨      No adverse effect on rheological properties

¨      Broad range efficiency

¨      Replacement for diesel, mineral oil-based fluids,

            or other synthetic base lubricant additives

¨      Meets EPA discharge requirements

¨      No effect on LC50 value of active fluid system

 

 

Sun's CoastaLube® contains no aromatics or other undesirable characteristics found in traditional mineral and diesel oils.  Toxicity testing under NPDES guidelines shows that Sun's CoastaLube® has no effect on the LC50 of the drilling mud system and does not cause sheening.
