Characteristics of Drilling Fluids

Transactions of the AIME, 1931
To properly account for the various characteristics of drilling mudsobtained in different areas and geological horizons, it is necessary to studythe composition of the mud from a chemical and physical standpoint asdetermined by the proportions and activities of the various solid contituentsthat are present in various states of division ...

Drilling Fluid Disposal System

Proceedings of SPE/IADC Drilling Conference, 1995
Abstract A superior method of downhole annular disposal of drilling mud waste has been developed utilizing external casing packers and a modified port collar to isolate a predetermined disposal zone. The benefits of this system are that it reduces the risk of contamination of fresh (potable) water sources and greatly reduces the risk of ...

Particulate Invasion From Drilling Fluids

Proceedings of SPE European Formation Damage Conference, 1999
Abstract Particulate invasion is one of the primary mechanisms of formation damage caused by drilling fluids. During the initial stages of filtercake growth particles are forced into the formation, building an internal filtercake which plugs the near surface pores.

How To Manage Drill-In Fluid Composition To Minimize Fluid Losses During Drilling Operations

SPE/IADC Middle East Drilling Technology Conference, 1999
Abstract Selection of the best Drill-in Fluid for drilling horizontal wells is based, essentially, on the characteristics of the filter cake formed near wellbore region. Minimizing filtrate loss into the formation by forming a thin filter cake with low porosity and permeability is the key to managing formation damage problems.

Drilling Fluid Design for Shale Gas Drilling

Advanced Materials Research, 2015
Shale gas nowadays is an important source of unconventional gas. The limited conventional gas supply makes the unconventional sources as a new source of gas. In this research, the aim is to design a mud formulation that can carry out essential functions of mud for shale gas drilling. Commonly for shale gas drilling, water based mud is used.
