Effect of perlite particles on the filtration properties of high-density barite weighted water-based drilling fluid
TL;DR: In this paper, the potentials of perlite as a filtration control agent under high pressure conditions were investigated, and the results showed that the drilling fluid formulations containing perlite controlled the fluid loss and mud particles invasion better than standard barite weighted fluids.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of inclined particle water jet on rock failure mechanism: Experimental and numerical study
TL;DR: In this paper, the SPH-FEM coupling method was used to compare the vertical and inclined particle jet on the rock failure mechanism and the effect of confining pressure, and the results were verified by experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancements in the tribological performance of environmentally friendly water-based drilling fluids using additives
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the tribological performance of both WBM and KCl brine with the addition of a low percentage of certain friction-modifying additives, which is the main reason for the significant enhancement.
