Determination Of Loss Of Liquid From A Mud And Filter Cake Thickness (Pam, Pac, Starch)
Abstract
Drilling is an important part of the oil industry and penetration rate must be enhanced to ensure speedy completion of drilling operation. Drilling fluid, or drilling mud, is a critical component in the rotary drilling process. The loss of liquid from a mud due to filtration is controlled by the filter cake formed of the solid constituents in the drilling fluid. The test in the laboratory consists of measuring the volume of liquid forced through the mud cake into the formation drilled in a period under given pressure and temperature using a standard size cell. The idea behind the current work is to determining the loss of drilling mud using additives as, starch bentonite, barite, PAM, PAC.
