BASE FLUIDS
Sluggits may be used in any water-based or oil-based systems.
APPLICATIONS
Sluggits are added directly to any pre-mixed system. They are effective in high loss situations where superior sealing characteristics are required. Under these conditions, 25-75 lb/bbl of the appropriate particle sizes, should be added to a concentrated slurry.
