Introduction

KLORIFREE presents a viable, chloride-free substitute for potassium chloride (KCl), designed to match the functionalities of traditional KCl in drilling fluids. KLORIFREE presents a viable, chloride-free substitute for potassium chloride (KCl), designed to match the functionalities of traditional KCl in drilling fluids. This alternative addresses environmental and operational concerns associated with chloride ions, particularly in sensitive ecological areas. It stabilizes wellbores by preventing the swelling and disintegration of reactive clays and shales, ensuring the structural integrity of the borehole during drilling.
