BARO-LUBE GOLD SEAL™

Drilling Fluid Lubricant

Description BARO-LUBE GOLD SEAL™ lubricant is a liquid additive specifically

formulated for use in industrial drilling applications where environmental
constraints preclude the use of hydrocarbon-based additives.
BARO-LUBE GOLD SEAL lubricant is designed to reduce friction under
extreme pressure (metal-to-metal) and in the borehole (metal-to-
formation).

Applications/Functions  Helps reduce drill rod torque and drag

 Helps lubricate drill rods and casing in close tolerance boreholes
 Helps reduce heat generated at bit face
 Helps reduce bit balling and mud rings on rods
 Helps minimize potential for differential sticking

Advantages  Water soluble lubricant

 Mixes in fresh or saltwater-based drilling fluids
 Compatible with most drilling fluid additives
 Mild odor - acceptable underground
 Increases lubricating properties of bentonite and polymer based
drilling fluid systems
 Stable at elevated sub-surface temperatures up to 300°F)

Typical Properties  Appearance Amber liquid

 Specific Gravity 0.94 (7.8 lb/gal)
 Flash point, PMCC >200°F (93°C)

Note:
 Soaping out of this product could take place in drilling fluids
containing high concentrations of divalent cations such as Calcium.
 For maximum efficiency maintain drilling fluid slurry density below
10 pounds per gallon (1.2 g/cm3)
 As a friction reducer in problematic zones or deviated holes slug 1 to
2 quarts (1-2 liters) down pipe to reduce torque and drag
