3d Numerical Simulation on Drilling Fluid Invasion into Natural Gas Hydrate Reservoirs

Social Science Research Network, 2021
The characteristics of drilling fluid invasion into hydrate-bearing sediments (HBS) would trigger geological risks. However, invasion mechanisms and formation responses during drilling the gas hydrate reservoirs, still remain poorly understood.

Potassium carbonate based deep eutectic solvent (DES) as a potential drilling fluid additive in deep water drilling applications

, 2021
Drilling fluid design is the most vital step in drilling phase. An ideal drilling fluid apart from exhibiting good thixotropic behavior should be efficient in inhibiting the hydrates formation, suppressing shale swelling and improving mud rheology ...

A Novel Drilling Fluid for Underbalanced Drilling

Proceedings, 2009
Interest in underbalanced drilling is growing worldwide. UBD, when properly designed, eliminates problems associated with the invasion of particulate matter into the formation. However, experience has indicated it is difficult to maintain a condition of continuous underbalance pressure throughout the complete drilling operation, resulting in fluid ...

Drilling Fluids Automix

SPE/IADC Middle East Drilling Technology Conference and Exhibition, 2018
Abstract Two Schlumberger companies, Cameron and M-I SWACO, joined efforts to provide market with a drilling fluid optimization system to be used during drilling operations. Cameron delivers a complete remote-controlled and automatic drilling fluids mixing system, while M-I SWACO's technology facilitates continuous real-time measurement,

Drilling Fluid Disposal

Journal of Petroleum Technology, 1981
Summary A maze of U.S. regulations and regulatory agencies coupled with uncertainty in interpretation of environmental data and an evolving system of disposal engineering will require industry action to monitor the area and derive a solid engineering basis for disposal of spent drilling fluid.

Drilling Fluids

2005
Publisher Summary A drilling fluid, or mud, is any fluid that is used in a drilling operation in which that fluid is circulated or pumped from the surface, down the drill string, through the bit, and back to the surface via the annulus. The most critical function that a drilling fluid performs is to minimize the concentration of cuttings around the ...

Effect of Hydrophobic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles on the Properties of Oil-Based Drilling Fluid

, 2021
Lately, nanoparticles (NPs) have shown the potential to improve the performance of oil well fluids significantly. Several studies have reported the ability of NPs to produce improved properties of both water and oil-based drilling fluids. In this study,
