Product Data Sheet
XLR-RATE™ lubricant promotes a clean BHA to allow for more weight on bit and increases in the rate of
penetration when water-based drilling fluids are used. Drilling fluid properties are generally not affected by
XLR-RATE lubricant additions. It can also improve sliding while directionally drilling and may be applied
continuously to the system or used in sweep treatments. XLR-RATE lubricant is compatible with most water
based systems and suitable for use up to 400°F (204°C). XLR-RATE lubricant may cause sheening in
off-shore applications.
