Applications
DG-Defoamer reduces the foaming tendencies of water-base muds. It is applicable and compatible with freshwater muds, seawater muds, brine systems and all common mud additives. It has proved to be especially effective in seawater muds and saturated saltwater muds. DG-Defoamer can be mixed easily and effective in low concentrations. Normal treatments of DG-Defoamer range from 0.05 to 0.10 lb/bbl (0.14 to 0 .29 kg/m3). Severe foaming may require treatments as high as 0.2 lb/bbl (0.57 kg/m3). DG-Defoamer should be added in a location where the product can be incorporated into the entire circulating mud systems. Although viscous, DG-Defoamer should not be diluted, as that would significantly reduce the effectiveness of the product.
