Advantages:
- Faster yielding than dry HEC, RIGVIS-LS provides reliable rapid dispersion and
dissolution.
- Smooth, uniform viscosity with no lumping.
- No "fish eyeing" or other dispersion problems are encountered due to
RIGVIS-LS’s exceptional mixing characteristics.
- Compatible with most drilling muds and workover/completion fluids.
- No pack-down, settling or oil separation – remains pourable.
- Solids are easily removed at the surface.
- Formulated with the highest quality ingredients available.

Application: For a typical treatment to obtain
Marsh funnel viscosity of 35-40 sec./qt., mix 5 gallons RIGVIS-LS per 20 barrels of fluid. |
Handling: Improper
