Pale Yellow Powder Xanthan Gum with ISO 9001 for Oilfield Drilling Auxiliary

Product Specifications

Pale Yellow Xanthan Gum (EINECS 234-394-2) for Consistent Oilfield Drilling Performance

Over 10 years serving oilfield operations, we’ve witnessed how inconsistent xanthan gum quality disrupts drilling fluid viscosity control—leading to costly downtime when shear resistance fluctuates or batch-to-batch moisture content varies beyond 13%. Smaller operators often struggle to source ISO-certified material in workable quantities, forced to compromise on either quality or minimum order volumes.

Stable Viscosity Control for High-Performance Drilling Fluids

Our Xanthan Gum delivers reliable rheological performance with a Brookfield LV viscosity of 1950 and shear ratio of 6.5, ensuring consistent fluid suspension even under extreme downhole conditions. As a direct factory partner with 3000 tons/year production capacity, we eliminate middlemen markups while maintaining ISO 9001:2015 quality standards—critical for both large-scale operations and specialized research projects.

Core Applications in Oilfield Operations

Primarily used as an Oil Drilling Auxiliary, this pale yellow powder enhances drilling fluid viscosity to suspend cuttings, reduce fluid loss, and stabilize wellbores. Its pseudoplastic behavior provides optimal flow characteristics during circulation while maintaining gel strength when pumping stops—essential for preventing stuck pipe incidents in challenging formations.

Key Specifications for Drilling Fluid Performance

The 6-8 pH range of our 1% XG solution ensures compatibility with most drilling fluid systems, minimizing the need for pH adjusters that can compromise fluid properties. At 13% moisture content, the product resists clumping during mixing while maintaining long-term stability in storage. The 25kg/bag packaging allows precise dosing for both laboratory formulation development and full-scale field operations, with palletized loads optimizing logistics efficiency.

Risk Reduction Through Quality Assurance

Using non-certified xanthan gum risks unpredictable fluid behavior—costing $10,000+ per hour in offshore drilling downtime. Our ISO 9001:2015 certification guarantees batch consistency, while Tianjin Port proximity ensures 7-10 day lead times to major global oilfields. Unlike brokers, we provide full production traceability from fermentation to final packaging, eliminating supply chain black boxes.
