Gelation kinetics of PAM/PEI based drilling mud for lost circulation applications
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
The problem of lost circulation is a direct consequence of the presence of fractures or high permeability. Lost circulation material (LCM) is used to treat the loss that occurs or proactively strengthen the wellbore of the ...
A CFD- RSM study of cuttings transport in non-Newtonian drilling fluids: Impact of operational parameters
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
Cuttings removal out of the wellbore represents a real barrier for successful drilling operations. The performance of hole cleaning is determined by several factors. The current article provides a theoretical study of the ...
CFD modeling of particle settling in drilling fluids: Impact of fluid rheology and particle characteristics
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2021 , Article)
The settling of drilling cuttings is important for the drilling and clean-out operations. The current article provides a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling study of particle settling behavior during the drilling ...
