Support Fluid for Soil Stabilisation
The G3® Soil Stabilization System is a next-generation polymer technology designed to transform non-cohesive soils into stable, predictable environments for excavation and ground engineering. By forming a strong cross-linked network within the soil, the G3® system improves soil cohesion, minimizes fluid loss, and enhances operational efficiency, making it ideal for challenging soil conditions.
The G Line is a versatile polymer-based soil stabilization system used in geotechnical excavations to support soil structures. It is designed for use in various soil types and conditions, offering efficient mixing, rapid hydration, and compatibility with both fresh and salt water. The G Line components (GMud, GNet, G+) work together to enhance soil cohesion, reduce fluid loss, and promote particle suspension, making it ideal for applications in deep foundation projects.
The XG Series, developed by GEO, is a range of innovative products based on a natural polymer for use in drilling and soil stabilization. Designed for high solubility, viscosity control and high density, Cross-Gel XG serves as an efficient drilling fluid with long-lasting stability, effective sediment transport, and continuous reuse capability. The series includes complementary products—XG Break, XG Clean, and XG Shield—to optimize performance, manage fluid density, and maintain polymer structure over extended operations.
A bentonite suspension system is a mixture of bentonite clay and water, forming a gel-like fluid that exhibits thixotropic properties, meaning it thickens when at rest and becomes more fluid when agitated. This suspension is used primarily in industries like construction, drilling, and geotechnical applications for its ability to provide stability and lubrication.
Standalone support fluid products are complete, ready-to-use formulations designed for soil stabilization. They function independently, mixed only with water, and are then applied directly in excavation sites. These products stabilize soil, prevent collapse, and control fluid loss, making them ideal for projects needing reliable, easy-to-apply support fluids without additional additives.
GEO’s fluid loss blocker system includes two products, GFiber and GBlock, designed to prevent fluid loss during soil stabilization. Fluid loss can compromise excavation stability, particularly in permeable or fractured soils. GFiber, made from natural mineral fibers, and GBlock, a fast-swelling synthetic polymer, create barriers in the soil to control seepage effectively. This system is compatible with support fluids such as the G3 System, Gline, XG series, Bentonite, and standalone slurries.
