    Choline Chloride and choline bicarbonate offer an attractive, effective and more environmentally responsible alternative than other clay stabilizers. Choline Chloride reduces the amount of chlorides released into the environment up to 75% when compared to KCL. Clay swelling causes Wellbore instability Cuttings disintegration Bit balling Fines migration Reductions in permeability of the formation to hydrocarbons These issues can result in higher drilling costs and slower production rates.

    Structural formula: Drilling and stimulation in shale and other clay containing formations pose challenges due to clay swelling. This swelling causes a number of issues including: Wellbore instability Cuttings disintegration Bit balling Fines migration Reductions in permeability of the formation to hydrocarbons These issues can result in higher drilling costs and slower production rates. Clay stabilizers reduce clay swelling and and its associated risks leading to lower drilling costs and improved production rates. Potassium chloride (KCL) is commonly used in preventing the swelling of clay as a temporary clay stabilizer. However, the use of KCL in drilling carries environmental concerns as clorides do not degrade and can enter surface water carrying heavy metal including cadmium and mercury. Choline chloride and choline bicarbonate offer an attractive, effective and more environmentally responsible alternative than other clay stabilizers. Be-Long's industrial Choline Chloride is completely chloride free while our Choline chloride reduces the amount of chlorides released into the environment up to 75% when compared to KCL. The key features offered by Choline salts as an alternative to traditional clay stabilizers include. Choline Chloride for Clay Stabilization Mining Shale Gas
