CONFI-MOD is used as a viscosifier in invert oil / synthetic base systems.


Applications/ CONFI-MOD is designed to provide increased yield point and gel strengths
Functions with minimal plastic viscosity in invert oil / synthetic base systems. CONFI-
MOD primary application is in low toxicity, low aromatic oils, but may be
used with any type of oil to obtain increased carrying capacity and improve
the shear thinning and thixotropic characteristics of invert oil / synthetic
base systems. CONFI-MOD can be used to prepare newly blended oil /
synthetic muds at ambient temperatures, which will contain satisfactory
yield point and gel structure values to support weight material until CONFI-
GEL and or CONFI-GEL HT have fully yielded. CONFI-MOD may be
added to an existing oil mud to provide increased yield point and gel
strengths for improved hole cleaning. CONFI-MOD may be used to
formulate high viscosity sweeps and may also be used to for spacer fluids
where viscosified oil mud is needed to separate two fluids.

¾ CONFI-MOD enhances the performance of organoclays under


initial, low temperature mixing conditions resulting in improved yield
Advantages point and gel structure.
¾ Ideal as a rheological enhancer for new build load out muds, as
CONFI-GEL/CONFI-GEL HT may not have fully yielded.
¾ Additional of CONFI-MOD to oil muds containing CONFI-GEL will
cause the fluid to quickly develop increased gel structures and
permit the oil mud to become thixotropic. CONFI-MOD is not an oil-
thickening agent, but performs by maximizing the thixotropy of fluids
which contain organophilic clay.
¾ CONFI-MOD will aid in reducing HTHP fluid loss and improving
emulsion stability.

CONFI-MOD Product Data Sheet
¾ CONFI-MOD should not be added to oil / synthetic mud unless the
Limitations systems contain organophilic clay or oil-wet active drills solids.
¾ CONFI-MOD generated rheology has a short term effect, personnel
must be aware of this property and ensure that this is considered in
all fluid engineering considerations.

Recommended Consult MSDS before use and use personal protective equipment as
Handling advised.
