Abstract
A polymer composition for use in aqueous mediums comprising a hydrophilic polymer, a water miscible polar organic liquid which acts as a solvating agent for the hydrophilic polymer, the solvating agent being of a type which forms a semi-solid to viscous mixture with the hydrophilic polymer under certain conditions, and a diluting agent which is a non-solvating agent for the hydrophilic polymer. The polymer compositions can be added to aqueous mediums, particularly heavy brines, to produce well servicing fluids.
