Ven-BHC™ is our proprietary Poly Hydroxy Silicate technology. Ven-BHC™ is an inorganic, synthetic gel-strength modifier designed for water-based drilling, milling and completion fluids. Ven-BHC™ is a proprietary Poly-Hydroxy Silicate technology. Ven-BHC™ provides borehole stability and superior hole cleaning for milling of casing and drilling highly deviated or horizontal sections as well as straight hole drilling applications. This fluid is especially effective when drilling unconsolidated, unstable, stressed or faulted formations. The Ven-BHC™ drilling fluid system is an environmentally safe fluid system that achieves higher ROP, reduces drilling days, has few system components and is easy to use. Ven-BHC™ works with Bentonite, Attapulgite and Sepiolite. Ven-BHC™ can be used with either Premium ‘un-treated’ bentonite or Peptized ‘treated’ bentonite. Ven-BHC™ provides high YP with low funnel viscosity. Ven-BHC™ has high ‘low end’ rheological properties and optimizes hole cleaning capabilities. A Ven-BHC™ drilling fluid system is capable of zero ‘slip’ velocity for excellent suspension characteristics with virtually zero shear stress at the borehole. A Ven-BHC™ drilling fluid system maintains filtration control in the presence of contaminants. A Ven-BHC™ drilling fluid system will minimize torque and drag. A Ven-BHC™ drilling fluid system requires no special or sophisticated rig equipment, just good solids control.
