Download or read book Clay Science in Drilling and Drilling Fluids written by Guanzheng Zhuang and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-06-05 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clay Science in Drilling and Drilling Fluids starts from the fundamentals of clay science and drilling, then comprehensively presents the advances of clay science related to drilling and drilling fluids and ends with discussion of industrial clay products. The topics combine to present the whole picture of fundamental research and industrial applications of clays and clay minerals in drilling operations, which is of general interest to researchers and engineers working in the related fields.Oil and gas are the primary sources of energy in human society and the foundation of the petrochemical industry. However, extracting these resources present a number of drilling challenges, including high temperature and high pressure (HTHP), offshore drilling, high angle drilling, and even horizontal drilling, among others. As a result, it is crucial to develop advanced drilling and drilling fluid technologies. Clay science in drilling and drilling fluids should be clarified for this purpose because clays and clay minerals are one of the most important components of drilling fluids and have a significant impact on wellbore stability. Clay Science in Drilling and Drilling Fluids covers the different levels of clay science in drilling and drilling fluids, i.e., form fundamentals, the latest research results, applications, and commercial products. - Covers the fundamentals of clay minerals, drilling, and drilling operations - Discusses applications of the research and science to real world problems - Introduces available commercial clay products and recommends their use for specific situations
Download or read book Optimization of Nanoparticle Enhanced Water based Drilling fluid in the Powder River Basin written by Christopher Richard Walker and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of nanoparticles in drilling fluids is an emerging practice in the oil and gas industry. The nanoparticles used vary in diameter, size distribution, as well as the material used to enhance the rheological and filtration properties of the drilling fluid to which they are applied. Various studies have been conducted to determine the effectiveness of nanoparticle-enhanced drilling fluids, and a wide spectrum of results have been observed. There is ongoing debate as to the ability of nanoparticles to improve the rheological and filtration properties of drilling fluids in a variety of settings. Theoretically, nanoparticles can create a stronger colloidal solution based on their high surface area to volume ratio. In addition, they can plug microfractures and shale pore throats mechanically, increasing shale stability of the drilling fluid. Furthermore, nanoparticle-enhanced drilling fluids have shown excellent stability in high pressure/high-temperature environments, making them ideal for ultra-deep wells. This study investigates the impact of nanoparticles on drilling fluid properties and overall drilling operation for a representative well in the Powder River Basin (Wyoming). The research was conducted in two stages: (1) experimental measurements and optimization of drilling fluid properties, (2) drilling simulation of a reference drilling fluid with optimum nanoparticle-enhanced drilling fluid. In the end, an ideal drilling fluid formulation was identified based the parameters measured during simulation and rheological and filtration data obtained during the experimentation phase, along with consideration of the shale stability and fluid stability at high pressure/high-temperature environments.

Download or read book Coupled Thermo Hydro Mechanical Chemical Processes in Geo systems written by Ove Stephansson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2004-11-03 with total page 853 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the most important and exciting current steps forward in geo-engineering is the development of coupled numerical models. They represent the basic physics of geo-engineering processes which can include the effects of heat, water, mechanics and chemistry. Such models provide an integrating focus for the wide range of geo-engineering disciplines. The articles within this volume were originally presented at the inaugural GeoProc conference held in Stockholm and contain a collection of unusually high quality information not available elsewhere in an edited and coherent form. This collection not only benefits from the latest theoretical developments but also applies them to a number of practical and wide ranging applications. Examples include the environmental issues around radioactive waste disposal deep in rock, and the search for new reserves of oil and gas.
Download or read book Optimization of Hydraulic Fracture Stages and Sequencing in Unconventional Formations written by Ahmed Alzahabi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shale gas and/or oil play identification is subject to many screening processes for characteristics such as porosity, permeability, and brittleness. Evaluating shale gas and/or oil reservoirs and identifying potential sweet spots (portions of the reservoir rock that have high-quality kerogen content and brittle rock) requires taking into consideration multiple rock, reservoir, and geological parameters that govern production. The early determination of sweet spots for well site selection and fracturing in shale reservoirs is a challenge for many operators. With this limitation in mind, Optimization of Hydraulic Fracture Stages and Sequencing in Unconventional Formations develops an approach to improve the industry’s ability to evaluate shale gas and oil plays and is structured to lead the reader from general shale oil and gas characteristics to detailed sweet-spot classifications. The approach uses a new candidate selection and evaluation algorithm and screening criteria based on key geomechanical, petrophysical, and geochemical parameters and indices to obtain results consistent with existing shale plays and gain insights on the best development strategies going forward. The work introduces new criteria that accurately guide the development process in unconventional reservoirs in addition to reducing uncertainty and cost.

This book was released on 2011-09-29 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The petroleum industry in general has been dominated by engineers and production specialists. The upstream segment of the industry is dominated by drilling/completion engineers. Usually, neither of those disciplines have a great deal of training in the chemistry aspects of drilling and completing a well prior to its going on production. The chemistry of drilling fluids and completion fluids have a profound effect on the success of a well. For example, historically the drilling fluid costs to drill a well have averaged around 7% of the overall cost of the well, before completion. The successful delivery of up to 100% of that wellbore, in many cases may be attributable to the fluid used. Considered the "bible" of the industry, Composition and Properties of Drilling and Completion Fluids, first written by Walter Rogers in 1948, and updated on a regular basis thereafter, is a key tool to achieving successful delivery of the wellbore. In its Sixth Edition, Composition and Properties of Drilling and Completion Fluids has been updated and revised to incorporate new information on technology, economic, and political issues that have impacted the use of fluids to drill and complete oil and gas wells. With updated content on Completion Fluids and Reservoir Drilling Fluids, Health, Safety & Environment, Drilling Fluid Systems and Products, new fluid systems and additives from both chemical and engineering perspectives, Wellbore Stability, adding the new R&D on water-based muds, and with increased content on Equipment and Procedures for Evaluating Drilling Fluid Performance in light of the advent of digital technology and better manufacturing techniques, Composition and Properties of Drilling and Completion Fluids has been thoroughly updated to meet the drilling and completion engineer's needs. - Explains a myriad of new products and fluid systems - Cover the newest API/SI standards - New R&D on water-based muds - New emphases on Health, Safety & Environment - New Chapter on waste management and disposal
