Potassium Lignite

It is a specially formulated modified lignite compound compatible with all water base mud systems but it is developed specially for use in potassium based mud systems.

It is a specially formulated modified lignite compound compatible with all water base mud systems but it is developed specially for use in potassium based mud systems.It is chemically modified so that it delivers a higher degree of synergy with lignosulfonates in drilling fluids.

Application
  •     It contributes the potassium ion to the mud systems and improves rheological properties.
  •     Reduces formation and reservoir damage by limiting the migration of clay.
  •     Reduces washouts and improves well caliper by base exchange.
  •     Helps to control water sensitive shales.
  •     Aids in controlling temperature stability of muds by reducing flocculation and gelation
  •     Improves rheological properties of water base system.

Emergency overview Harmful by inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed.
Potential health effects  
Routes of exposure Inhalation. Skin contact. Ingestion.
Eyes Dust or powder may irritate eye tissue. Symptoms include itching, burning, redness and tearing.
Skin This product may cause irritation to the skin. Prolonged or repeated skin contact may result in redness, burning sensation or dermatitis.

Inhalation

Inhalation of dusts may cause respiratory irritation. For additional information on inhalation hazards, see Section 11 of this safety data sheet.
Ingestion Ingestion of large amounts may produce gastrointestinal disturbances including irritation, nausea, and diarrhea.

 

 

Eye Contact

Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 20 minutes. If irritation persists get medical attention.

Skin Contact

Wash off immediately with plenty of water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.

Notes to Physician

Treat symptomatically and supportively.

Inhalation

If exposed to excessive levels of dusts or fumes, remove to fresh air and get medical attention if cough or other symptoms develop.
Ingestion Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce risk of aspiration. If ingestion of a large amount does occur, seek medical attention.
General advice If you feel unwell, seek medical advice (show the label where possible).

 

 

Flammable properties None known. Dusts at sufficient concentrations can form explosive mixtures with air.
Extinguishing media  
Suitable extinguishing media Dry chemical, CO2, water spray or regular foam. Use any media suitable for the surrounding fires.

 

Personal precautions:
Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid inhalation of dust from the spilled material. Wear a dust mask if dust is generated above exposure limits.

Methods for containment:
Stop leak if you can do so without risk. Eliminate all sources of ignition or flammables that may come into contact with a spill of this material.

Methods for cleaning up:
Avoid the generation of dusts during clean-up. Sweep up or gather material and place in appropriate container for disposal.

 

Handling

Keep formation of airborne dusts to a minimum. Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact with this material. Wash hands after handling and before eating.

Storage Keep in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place. Guard against dust accumulation of this material. Keep out of the reach of children.

 

 

Engineering Controls

If material is ground, cut, or used in any operation which may generate dusts, use appropriate local exhaust ventilation to keep exposures below the recommended exposure limits. If engineering measures are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of dust particulates below the OEL, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.

Eye I face protection

Wear dust goggles. Avoid contact with eyes.
 

Skin protection
 

Normal work clothing (long sleeved shirts and long pants) is recommended.

Respiratory protection  Use a particulate filter respirator for particulate concentrations exceeding the Occupational Exposure Limit.
General hygiene considerations Eye wash fountain and emergency showers are recommended. Use good industrial hygiene practices in handling this material. Keep away from food and drink.
