IM-BEN 134 has the following benefits:

- Is a pure product with no chemical additives and is non-peptized. This allows product to remain

Stable in elevated bottom-hole temperatures (BHT) .

- Has high purity and very low iron oxide, and is ideal where high iron oxide may cause a problem

With corrosion and contamination to the well.

- Cost effective means of building mud properties and adding viscosity for suspending drilled solids
