A Review on Different Approaches of Developing Environment Friendly Drilling Fluids
Author(s): Arindom Boruah* and Mehboob Ahmed Chowdhury
In the drilling industry, environmental pollution has always been a serious problem while working with drilling fluids. Due to increasing environmental awareness, Drilling fluids containing harmful non degradable and aromatic content are banned in many environmentally sensitive areas. Over the years, many approaches were used to satisfy the environment protection laws and recent development involves using environmentally acceptable additives to formulate drilling fluids, which have been applied to meet the stringent environmental regulations, while at the same time fulfilling the increasingly challenging drilling conditions. This paper reviews some of the environment friendly approaches as well as recent advances using nanoparticles focusing on the improvement of drilling fluid performance... View more»
