approved by US EPA The toxicity of the test drilling fluid was compared to a reference SBM C16 C18 internal olefin with and without the test sample For compliance the ratio of the reference drilling fluid median lethal concentration LC50 to the tested drilling fluid LC50 should be < The test results are given in Fig 3
biocide will improve the stability of the drilling fluid it helps to maintain the pH of the drilling fluid and keep its basic nature If drilling fluid turns acidic pH<7 it can cause corrosion in the drill pipe and damage the drill pipe the replacement of drill pipe can add extra cost to the drilling operation 2 EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE
In recent years the development of deep and ultra deep oil and gas resources become one of the main goals of the petroleum industry [1] [2] Drilling fluid is referred to as the blood of drilling engineering [3] The performance of drilling fluid is often affected by high temperature high pressure and high salinity which can lead to hole collapse pipe sticking

From drilling accuracy to rig selection there s more to a successful drill and blast campaign than equipment it s the drilling fluid too HDD From keeping the hole open and stable to keeping tooling cool our drilling fluids are manufactured with
The Alcomer ® series of polymers contains both low molecular weight cationic coagulants and a wide range of molecular weight nonionic anionic and cationic flocculants Dewatering agents are used to clarify low solid drilling fluids They cause colloidal particles in suspension to group into aggregates allowing the solids to separate out of the drilling fluid
Fluid Loss Polymer provides Cuttings Encapsulation and Bore whole Stability It maintains viscosity in solid free drilling fluid As a Bentonite extender in low solids non dispersed mud it can be used along with small addition of Bentonite to suspend weight material or it may be used independently with Water Common Name Fluid Loss polymer

The drilling fluids with a SF exceeding are not recommended according to the API standard [38] According to the reported data in Table 5 the static sag factors of barite weighted drilling fluids and mud samples weighted delaminated iron ore WMSDIO at the densities from to lb/gal were measured With increasing the density of
Universal Drilling Fluids offers the best range of Oilfield Chemicals and Drilling fluids Likewise UNIVERSAL offers a number of emulsifiers to create an emulsion of two insoluble liquids Besides we also offer wetting agents that lower the surface tension of a liquid and enable it to spread more quickly and easily
Acrylamide polymers were widely used as oilfield chemical treatment agents because of their wide viscosity range and versatile functions However with the increased formation complexity their shortcomings such as poor solubility and low resistance to temperature salt and calcium were gradually exposed In this paper acrylamide AM /2
Currently there is a wide range of fluid loss agents being used in the oil and gas industry [9] [10] [11] In deep and ultra deep wells seeking the agent with excellent properties is a pressing issue when the filtration process encounters complex and harsh formation conditions such as high temperatures and high salt concentrations and increasingly novel products are
Some starch‐graft‐polyacrylamide copolymers were prepared by the polymerization of corn starch with acrylamide in aqueous medium using a complex initiation system consisting of ceric ammonium sulphate and ammonium persulphate The copolymers were applied to water‐based drilling fluid as filtration control agents Their grafting parameters
Drilling fluids are the core of drilling operations and they are responsible for many roles such as lubricating drill string cooling down drilling equipment maintaining wellbore integrity and transporting cuttings to the surface High energy demands have caused the oil and gas production rates to increase by orders of magnitude which is accompanied by increased
