Drilling for Oilfield

Additives for Drilling for Oilfield

BYK offers additive solutions for oil-based and water-based drilling fluid systems. Our additives offer solutions for rheology, suspension of weighting agents and cuttings, and defoaming. Select additives work effectively in high-temperature environments. BYK also offers an additive solution for the scavenging and control of hydrogen sulfide during the drilling process.
