API 13A Bentonite
for Flush Drilling Fluid
The most common use of bentonite is in drilling fluids. The bentonite in the flush fluid lubricates and cools the cutting tools while protecting against corrosion. As the drilling fluid generates hydrostatic pressure in the borehole, it hinders fluid and gas penetration. stic Viscosity Ratio

In the complex and demanding world of oil and gas exploration, drilling bentonite emerges as an indispensable ally. This natural clay, enriched with montmorillonite, offers unmatched properties that enhance drilling efficiency, ensure environmental safety, and reduce operation costs. Our premium drilling bentonite is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of the drilling industry, delivering performance that surpasses conventional drilling fluids. What is Drilling Bentonite? Drilling bentonite is a specialized form of bentonite clay that has been optimized for use in drilling operations. Sourced from high-quality deposits, our bentonite undergoes a meticulous process of extraction and refinement to ensure it delivers superior performance. Primarily composed of montmorillonite, our drilling bentonite features a unique combination of minerals that contribute to its exceptional swelling, sealing, and stabilizing properties. Chemical and Physical Properties The excellence of drilling bentonite lies in its chemical composition and physical attributes. With a formula of Al2H2Na2O13Si4, it showcases a robust structure ideal for drilling applications. It possesses a high swelling capacity which allows it to expand and form a gel-like consistency when mixed with water. This characteristic ensures the formation of a thick filter cake that effectively seals the boreholes, preventing fluid loss and stabilizing the wellbore. Superior Drilling Efficiency Our drilling bentonite enhances the efficiency of drilling operations by offering superior lubrication, exceptional fluid loss control, and effective cuttings removal. Its rheological properties ensure that the drilling fluid maintains a low viscosity at high flow rates, improving the removal of cuttings and reducing the risk of borehole instability. Furthermore, its high yield point increases the carrying capacity of the fluid, allowing for the suspension and transport of larger quantities of cuttings at lower pump pressures. Applications in Various Drilling Scenarios Our drilling bentonite is versatile and can be adapted to various drilling scenarios, including: Vertical Drilling: Enhances drilling speed and efficiency while maintaining borehole stability. Horizontal and Directional Drilling: Provides superior rheological properties that ensure the smooth steering of the drill bit through complex geological formations. High-Pressure High-Temperature (HPHT) Wells: Resists thermal degradation and maintains its sealing and lubricating properties under extreme conditions.

We are supplier and exporter of Bentonite. Bentonite for Drilling mud and Civil engineering Shape:white powder and natural particles The products is suitable for the lubrication of drilling engineering,bridge, construction engineering pile foundation,diaphragm wall,subway,tunnel,wall mud and impervious materials such as underground engineering,reservoir dam foundation,etc.
Bentonite as is a particular kind of clay derived from volcanic ash and consists mainly of montmorillonite with minor amount of illite, kaolinite, cristobalite and other minerals. Bentonite has strong colloidal properties and, when in contact with water, increases its volume several fold by swelling, forming a tixotropic, gelatinous substance. Main uses of Bentonite take advantage of these colloidal properties. The main characteristics of Bentonite is its decolorizing power, that is the property of the earth to absorb selectively certain pigments rather than others according to the characteristics of the product to be decolourized(acidity, oxidation degree, origin and biological state etc.) APPLICATIONS For Drilling Fluids Pilling Binder (e.g. foundry-sand bond, iron ore pelletizer) Purifier Electrical Earthing Agriculture Cosmetics, Paper, Paints and Ceramics Absorbent (e.g. pet litter), and As a Groundwater Barrier. We CEMENTATION acquire own mines for Bentonite in India. We supply Bentonite for industrial, manufacturing, construction and drilling applications. Our production or supply capacity is more than 250,000 TPA. At CEMENTATION a special attention is given while mining Bentonite as the materials physical and chemical properties are depended upon the interference of the other metal ions present in the soil. Once the material sourced from mines are transferred to our factory and are left for drying in an open land to reduce moisture up to the desired level. After the drying process and other checks are done our skilled manpower will do a sorting of the material and then after the material goes to pulverizes for grinding to desired mesh size and are packed according to customers requirement. Our laboratories are well equipped to meet the needs of the diverse markets we serve.
Our Bentonite Products: Foundry Grade: The foundry-grade bentonite powder is used as a bonding material in the preparation of moulding sand for the production of iron, steel, and non-ferrous casting. Sodium Bentonite is the preferred binding agent for use in the bonding of metals and foundry sands, although calcium Bentonite enhances foundry sandâ??s flow ability and figures in the manufacture of nonferrous mouldings. Drilling Grade (API Grades, OCMA) Drilling-grade bentonite is a naturally occurring clay containing the clay minerals of smectite. It can also contain accessory minerals, such as quartz, mica, feldspar, and calcite. The Drilling Grade Bentonite Powder is used as a mud constituent for oil and water well drilling. Its roles are mainly to seal the borehole walls, remove drill cuttings, and lubricate the cutting head. Our Drilling Grade Bentonite Powder has high swelling and good colloidal nature, which can increase the viscosity of suspension in the drilling mud and also can increase the lubrication of drilling, as well as for the rig-freeing agent. Piling Grade Bentonite slurry is one of the most common excavation fluid used in constructing diaphragm walls. The gel strength and viscosity properties of the bentonite clay allow for cutting suspension and removal. Piling Grade Bentonite Powder is used traditionally as a support and lubricant agent in walls and foundations, tunnelling, and horizontal drilling. Viscosity and plasticity play a very important role. Bentonite slurry walls are used in construction, where the slurry wall is a trench filled with a thick colloidal mixture of Bentonite and water. Cattle Feed Grade Our Feed Grade Bentonite is Natural & selected from affluent Mines of Kutch. This Bentonite is used as an animal feed supplement, as a palletizing aid in the production of feed pallets, as well as a flow ability aid. It slows the passage of feed through the digestive system increasing the uptake of nutrients. Bentonite has an affinity for some of the active elements of toxin products formed by bacteria in the digestive tract, and its application in feed allows more rapid weight gain of livestock.
