polyanionic cellulose polymer is used as an additive in drilling mud in order to decrease water loss and mudcake- thickness. in this study effect of bulk and nanosize polyanionic cellulose on water loss and mud-cakethickness in mud drilling is investigated. polyanionic cellulose nanoparticles are made by using of ball milling. size of nanoparticles is measured by particle size analyzer. polyani...

Horizontal directional drilling is usually used in drilling engineering. In a variety of conditions, it is necessary to predict the torque required for performing the drilling operation. Nevertheless, there is presently not a convenient method available to accomplish this task. In order to overcome this difficulty, the current work aims at predicting the required rotational torque (RT) to opera...

Mud Recycle is a process option for cane diffuser factories; it eliminates the need for a filter station by using the bed of shredded cane in the diffuser to separate out mud solids from the juice. This paper describes the Mud Recycle system at Maidstone mill and presents the results of a Mud Recycle trial that was carried out during the 1998 season. Maidstone switched to Mud Recycle on a perma...

This research work focuses on finding more effective polymers that can improve the rheological properties of bentonite mud. Various mud samples were formulated with natural obtained from corn starch, cassava purple potato yellow starch and saw dust consisting different masses which not treated or purified by any chemical method before after preparation along control Rheology tests carried out t...

LUSI mud obtained from the mud volcano in Sidoarjo, Indonesia, is a viable aluminosilicate material to be utilized as pozzolanic material. LUSI is an abbreviation of the local name of the mud, i.e., Lumpur Sidoarjo, meaning Sidoarjo mud. This paper reports the results of an investigation to assess the pozzolanic activity of LUSI mud, especially in semi high volume pozzolanic mortar. In this cas...

Abstract The research has shown successful application of ionic liquids (ILs) as drilling fluid additives for modifying the mud rheology. Ionic are tuneable solvents comprising hundreds combination various cations and anions. cationic portion mainly comprises a side alkyl chain which plays an important role in altering properties. This review focusses on finding impact length yield point, plast...

Deep insights into the movability of retained shale oil are great significance to oil. Rock and crude samples were collected from well J174 in Jimsar Sag, Junggar Basin. subjected different extraction followed by analysis component extracts, measurement porosity conjunction with nuclear magnetic resonance high-pressure mercury injection analysis. The results these analyses used establish an exp...

A cost-effective and environmentally friendly biodegradable locally sourced alternative will be sought to reduce drilling fluid cost operations. Moringa oleifera seed is a cheap, obtainable, additive. This study aims determine the effect suitability of processed powder (MSP) as an additive improve performance water-based mud. The seeds were collected, prepared, pulverized particle size 75 micro...
