Oil Mud Test Kit

Part No. 162-06 Portable Lab Model SX-826

The Oil Mud Laboratory contains all of the apparatus and reagents necessary for the complete analysis of oil muds in the field or in the laboratory. Lab ware and reagents are included for all of the routine tests that are typically performed with oil muds. Xylene-Isopropyl Alcohol mixture is provided as an emulsion breaker, although Arcosolv PNP which has a higher flash point and is therefore safer to ship may be substituted upon request. Everything is housed in a convenient stainless steel cabinet with lots of storage space and shelving for ease of usage.

The Oil Mud Laboratory retort analysis is a standard guide for controlling the oil/water ratio, which influences the viscosity and filtration of the oil mud.
