A Flowline listener asked about glycols and choosing the cloud point for the best shale inhibition performance. Tune into this episode of The #Flowline as Justin and Matt provide more detail on glycols and a strategy for selection. If you have a question, send us a message or comment!

Water and clays aren't always the best combination. What are the water-based mud products that inhibit shale interaction? Tune into this episode of The #Flowline - WBM Series as Matt and Justin discuss shale inhibitors!

Depending on the drilling conditions, alkalinity and pH need to be a fine-tuned science. In this episode of the WBM Series, Alkalinity, Matt and Justin discuss the sources of alkaline, how they work, and where they fit into the whole picture!

Tune into this Water-Based Mud Series episode as Justin and Matt sits down to discuss why filtration control agents are used, incompatibility with cationic and anionic products, and much more!

Water-based muds require viscosifiers compatible with the base fluid. Several kinds of viscosifiers provide quality hole cleaning and solid-suspension characteristics. Tune into this episode of the WBM Series as Matt and Justin discuss why viscosifiers are needed, the different kinds of viscosifiers, and much more!

In this new series of The #Flowline, Matt and Justin go in-depth into water-based mud. Each episode will break down different components and key functions of WBM. Tune into this episode of the #WBM Series, as our hosts talk about all things base fluid in water-based mud.
