Effects of lime on ester based drilling fluid

Lime known as calcium hydroxide is one of the important components in invert emulsion drilling fluid. It has been used to activate the emulsifier. However, excessive lime has adverse effect on ester as it could accelerate hydrolysis of ester into its original components; fatty acid and alcohol. This...
