Deepwater drilling using high-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) drilling fluids draws
significant attention for the quest of increasing energy demand. In this regard, selecting …

An important aspect of hydrocarbon drilling is the usage of drilling fluids, which remove drill
cuttings and stabilize the wellbore to provide better filtration. To stabilize these properties …

High temperatures degrade drilling fluid performance and endanger drilling safety when
drilling deep and ultra-deep wells. The development of a new high-temperature drilling fluid …

In this paper, styrene butadiene resin/nano-SiO 2 (SBR/SiO 2) composite was synthesized
by the continuous emulsion polymerization method, which was used as a plugging agent for …

Recently, the role of carbon nanomaterials has been widely demonstrated in various
industrial applications. Due to their unique chemical, physical, mechanical, and thermal …

The harsh downhole conditions encountered in geothermal wells, specifically the high
temperatures (HT) together with the toughness of the rock found in many geothermal …

These days, significant investigations are carried out on the preparation of high qualified
aqueous-based drilling fluid-structure to create the best option compared with oil-base …

Nano-water-based drilling fluids (NWBDFs) are prepared using nano-copper oxide (CuO)
and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as modification materials. The effects of the …

Oil-based drilling fluid (OBDF) is used to drill through high permeable pay zone to prevent
possible damage to the formation. However, the oil based drilling fluid leaves behind filter …

This paper aimed at improving the water-based drilling mud using Moringa oleifera (M.
Oleifera) plant leaves. The rheological properties (plastic viscosity (PV), yield point (YP), and …
