Improving the performance of oil based mud and water based mud in a high temperature hole using nanosilica nanoparticles
Oil-based mud (OBM), a non-Newtonian fluid, is known for its superior performance in drilling complex wells as well as combating potential drilling complications. However, the good performance may degrade under certain circumstances especially because of the impact of chemical instability at an elev...
