Apparent Viscosity Prediction of Water-Based Muds Using Empirical Correlation and an Artificial Neural Network

Apparent viscosity is of one of the main rheological properties of drilling fluid. Monitoring apparent viscosity during drilling operations is very important to prevent various drilling problems and improve well cleaning efficiency. Apparent viscosity can be measured in the laboratory using rheomete...
