KLA STAB shale inhibitor is used primarily as a borehole stabilizer to prevent reactive shale and clay from swelling and sloughing, especially for reducing the swelling of sensitive shales and drill cutting exposed to water based mud.and stabilizing water sensitive formations such as shale, mudstones, talcs, kimberlites and typical shear zones

Application
Can be used in diamond and rotary drilling, especially for no effect of potassium chloride
Strong effective in the polymer drilling system
Can be well suited to low-solids, non-dispersed drilling mud systems
Control the dispersive tendency of mudstones and shales
Designed to work with PAC for a low viscosity drilling fluid that provides hole stability in shear zones
Can be used with super saline or water with extreme hardness
Advantages
Strongly effective shale inhibitor
Suitable for all pH level
Environmentally acceptable
Stable at temperatures more than 204 ℃ (400℉)
Prevent potential of bit balling
Reduced the amount of dilution required and associated treatment cost
Unaffected by contaminants such as hard water cement or CO2
Packaging:
