  2. Bentonite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bentonite

    Bentonite is used in drilling mud to lubricate and cool the cutting tools , to remove cuttings, to stabilize the borehole walls, and to help prevent blowouts (by maintaining a sufficient hydraulic pressure in the well). Bentonite also curtails drilling fluid invasion by its propensity for aiding in the formation of mud cake. [11]

  3. Drilling fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling_fluid

    In geotechnical engineering, drilling fluid, also known as drilling mud, is used to aid the drilling of boreholes into the earth. Used while drilling oil and natural gas wells and on exploration drilling rigs , drilling fluids are also used for much simpler boreholes, such as water wells .

  4. Mud engineer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_engineer

    Mud is a vital part of drilling operations. It provides hydrostatic pressure on the borehole wall to prevent uncontrolled production of reservoir fluids, lubricates and cools the drill bit, carries the drill cuttings up to the surface, forms a "filter-cake" on the borehole wall to prevent drilling fluid invasion, provides an information medium for well logging, and helps the drilling by ...

  5. Smectite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smectite

    Smectites are commonly used in very diverse industrial applications. In civil engineering works, it is routinely used as a thick bentonite slurry when excavating deep and narrow trenches in the ground to support the lateral walls and to avoid their collapse. It is also used as mud for drilling fluids.

  6. Directional boring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directional_boring

    Horizontal directional drilling is done with the help of a viscous fluid known as drilling fluid. It is a mixture of water and, usually, bentonite or polymer continuously pumped to the cutting head or drill bit to facilitate the removal of cuttings, stabilize the bore hole, cool the cutting head, and lubricate the passage of the product pipe ...

  8. Mud systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_systems

    Surface mud systems. In the oil drilling industry, effective solids control can be attributed to the overall performance of all the components of the mud systems.Conditioning the drilling fluid with the goal of dramatically lowering maintenance cost, avoiding excessive chemical treatment and maintaining mud systems volume will decrease the chance of equipment failure, unnecessary high mud ...

  9. Drilling fluid invasion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling_fluid_invasion

    The liquid component of the drilling fluid (known as the mud filtrate, or spurt) continues to "invade" the porous and permeable formation until the solids present in the mud, commonly bentonite, clog enough pores to form a mud cake capable of preventing further invasion.
