Maybe viscosity in drilling fluid is the most important parameter because cutting removal from well are task of viscose fluid. If viscosity of fluid is less than particular value, cutting will settle down in well and drilling operation will be stopped. In this study, synthesis of Alumina/Polyacrylamide nanocomposite through solution polymerization method was performed. Rheological behavior of m...

Formate drilling and completion fluid system is a new type of clean organic salt brine system which has been developed from inorganic salt brine drilling fluid system. It is beneficial to protecte and find hydrocarbon reservoir. Due to the solid free system, the damage of solid phase particles on reservoir, especially low permeability oil and gas layer, can be greatly eliminated, at the same ti...

Bante (BaSO,), a major component of drilling muds, can change the texture and erosion properties of surface sediments near offshore d r i h g sites. The effects of barite on the ecology of the marine polychaete Mediomastus arnbiseta (Hartman) were examined in laboratory experiments: a migration experiment, 2 feeding experiments and a growth experiment. In the migration experiment, 18 of 19 worm...

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...

Research has shown that many Bentonite in Nigeria are unsuitable for oil well drilling in their natural states. Their modification and blends with some additives could increase the yield and boost their suitability. Many indigenous polymers have become very popular due to environmental friendliness and their ability to modify rheology of clay suspension. However, the common natural polymers are...

In this paper, we detail our results for the impact of MWCNT on the thermal and rheological properties of oil-based drilling muds. Our analysis considers the effects of time, temperature, and MWCNT volume fraction. The scanning electron microscopy imaging technique was used to monitor the MWCNTsdispersion quality. The experimental results unveil a considerable enhancement in the thermal conduct...
