WELLBORE SERVICING FLUID HAVING HYDROPHOBICALLY MODIFIED POLYMERS

摘要

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a wellbore servicing fluid that includes a diluent, a hydrophobically modified polymer, and a base. The base provides the wellbore servicing fluid with a pH of greater than 10. The presence of the base in the wellbore servicing fluid helps to minimize changes in the viscosity of the wellbore servicing fluid when a deposit, or a kick, of salt is encountered during the drilling operation.
