ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method for preparing and earth stabilization fluid, a method for using such an earth stabilization fluid and to the earth stabilization fluid itself. This invention uses a continuous phase that has been added to a borehole and a polymer material that forms gel masses having desired functional properties when added to the continuous phase.
