The aim of this study is to develop inhibitive drilling fluid systems generated from waste
materials that can contribute to the reduction of potential well instability problems caused by …

Drilling fluid property characterization currently involves several manually executed
analytical tests, conducted in accordance with American Petroleum Institute (API) …

Solid particle size distribution (PSD) of drilling fluids is one of the key factors for the
formation damage and lost circulation control. However, particle size degradation occurs …

In gravity thickening, higher levels of fine particles within the feed slurry typically lead to
reduced flocculation performance relative to that achieved at the optimal solids …

Wellbore strengthening (WBS) offers enabling technology for wells that are drilled in
geological environments with a narrow drilling margin. Through its deployment, costly lost …

The invasion of drilling fluids into reservoir rocks can cause irreversible damage to the oil
well, reducing the initial permeability of the rock reservoir. Evaluated different sizes of …

Drilling fluids from oil wells play an important role in the drilling operations, including
cleaning and maintaining well stability, as well as cooling and lubricating the drill bit …

Novel measurement tools and techniques are now making it possible to carry out
sophisticated drilling fluid analyses using largely automated equipment. This paper …

An experimental approach was employed to study the Wellbore Strengthening (WBS)
phenomenon. A state-of-the-art experimental set-up was designed to carry out high …

Snakehead fish has a variety of nutritional content needed, both for maintaining body health
and as medicine. However, not everyone can consume snakehead fish because it has a …
