Which thinner for high-temperature wells?
Answers from the sources
Ironstone Drilling Supply
“Lignosulfonate is the most common thinner for general deflocculation in water-based mud, though its performance drops at the highest temperatures. Lignite (leonardite) products give filtration control and thinning with better temperature stability, and are often run together with lignosulfonate.”
