PHPA Polymer for Oil Drilling in Peru

Innova Corporate is a trusted PHPA supplier for Peru’s massive mining and infrastructure projects. Our PHPA is widely used as a viscosifier and stabilizer in specialized drilling and foundation work. For Peru’s deep-well mining exploration, our PHPA provides excellent friction reduction and superior performance.

How It Works

Being anionic in nature, PHPA molecules attach to the positively charged edges of clay platelets, effectively binding them together. This encapsulation mechanism prevents cuttings from dispersing, making solids removal more efficient. Additionally, it forms a protective layer that slows water penetration into the shale, preventing swelling and erosion.

Key Benefits & Applications

  • Shale Stabilization: Restricts the interaction of water with hydratable shales, preventing wellbore collapse.
  • Fluid Loss Control: Functions as a highly efficient fluid loss reducer in fresh water, sea water, and brine systems.
  • Cuttings Encapsulation: Coats drill cuttings to prevent dispersion and improve mechanical removal at the surface.
  • Compatibility: Fully compatible with PAC, CMC, biopolymers, and most drilling fluid products.
  • Enhanced Viscosity: Helps in better hole cleaning by providing optimal carrying capacity for drill cuttings.

Technical Note: PHPA is highly stable but high temperature or high pH (>10.5) conditions should be monitored, as they can accelerate polymer hydrolysis and release ammonia traces. It should be added regularly while drilling shale sections to maintain consistent protective concentration.
