Tag: Drilling Fluids Additives

Drilling fluid additives are elements essential in drilling operations, facilitating various controlling processes and enhancing performance. From controlling the viscosity and density of the drilling fluids to preventing formation damage, lubricating the drill bit, and stabilizing the wellbore, these additives serve a range of purposes, all ultimately aiding the operations. Many different types of additives are going to be explored in this article. Viscosifiers Viscosifiers improve the thickness of drilling liquids to carry cuttings away from the wellbore, providing more efficient drilling operations. Polymers, often used as additives, help suspend the drilling particles afloat, avoiding blockages as they settle. This ... Read more
