In non-technical terms, rheology is the science branch that studies the flow of matter, for example, water or oil or a mixture of water and oil flow properties through a pipe. Rheology modifier additives alter the rheological properties of fluid or fluid mixtures for good. A broad selection of rheology modifiers is commercially available for various applications. In oilfield drilling operations, rheology modifier additives are added to the drilling fluids to exhibit constant yield points and low RPM viscometer readings during onshore and offshore drilling operations. A perfect rheology modifier must exhibit a flat viscosity curve when subjected to high temperature, pressure increase, and changes in other external conditions.
A good rheology modifier must increase viscosity at a low shear rate, help carry cuttings, provide constant gel strength, and prevent slag and settling of weighting material. High viscosity at a low shear rate is necessary when drilling high-angle and horizontal wells. Upon addition of a rheology modifier, the drilling fluid must exhibit a flat rheology curve. A flat rheology curve indicates a smooth fluid or fluid mixture flow and uniform cuttings transport to the surface. However, it is also desired that the rheology modifier must be sustainable and not contaminate soil or water. A perfect rheology modifier must offer ultimate performance and help to meet sustainability targets.
Centum Chemicals has invested significant resources in studying commercially available rheology modifiers' properties and environmental impacts for onshore and offshore operations. Developing a rheology modifier that offers maximum performance in both onshore and offshore drilling operations became necessary. After years of research and innovation, our scientists developed ModuFlex, an advanced rheology modifier additive blend for oil and water-based drilling fluids. As it reflects our vision, we prioritize performance, quality, and sustainability. Using our technology, we can custom-produce a rheology modifier additive blend designed for your drilling operation. The required raw materials are sourced locally, and that guarantees ultimate quality and sustainability. Using our rheology modifier additive drilling operators can achieve performance and sustainability at the same time. We offer what is most important for our customers- performance.
Centum’s innovative advanced rheology modifier ModuFlex is a sustainable, readily available, or ultimately biodegradable additive blend designed to offer maximum performance. MofuFlex is a performance new-generation additive that helps to improve drilling mud’s rheology parameters during challenging onshore and offshore drilling operations and, importantly, offers ultimate fluid flow performance. It is carefully engineered to meet ESG and sustainability targets and is non-toxic to living species and organisms. Our ModuFlex is designed for both oil and water-based drilling fluid systems and offers ultimate temperature, pressure, and chemical stability. When it comes to absolute performance demand, drilling operators can put their ultimate trust in ModuFlex, and you do not need to worry about regulatory requirements because it is designed to meet ESG goals.
