“…Drilling uid is employed during the process of drilling an oil well to enhance drilling's e ciency and well productivity [3]. Drilling uid is a blend comprising of a base uid as the continuous phase and different kinds of additives that perform de nite or dual function(s) to remove drill cuttings to the surface, maintain wellbore stability [4,5,6] and control hydrostatic pressure [7]. Drilling uids are classi ed as water-based, oil-based and synthetic-based.…”

Fluid loss within a permeable formation is one of the expensive problems encounter during drilling of a wellbore. Commercially available materials such as Hydroxyl Ethyl Cellulose (HEC), Polyanionic Cellulose (PAC), and Carboxyl Methyl Cellulose (CMC) are employed to minimize fluid loss but they are costly and cause increased viscosity when faced with high salinity and hardness. This study evaluate the application of shell powders of hamburger bean and bush mango as eco-friendly and cheap filtration control additives in water-based mud. Sixteen samples were formulated with different concentrations (5g, 10g, 15g and 20g) of the shell powders. The effect of the additives on the rheological property was determined. Filtration test was determined using API 13B-I LPLP filter press. Results obtained showed that 15g and 20g of Bush mango reduced fluid loss, while the mud samples with hamburger beans exhibited a progressive decrease in filtration rate as the hamburger bean content increased. Both Bush Mango and Hamburger Bean-based mud produced cake thickness between 1.2-1.8 mm. The overall result indicates that Hamburger bean provide effective filtration control than Bush mango.

“…This problem is common when drilling in shale formations where water-based drilling fluids are used. This increased occurrence is because the water component of the fluid interacts with the shale formation minerals, resulting in the hydration, disintegration, and dispersion of the formation particles 2-4 this phenomenon causes the clay minerals in the shale to hydrate and swell, leading to wellbore instability, such as wellbore collapse, necking, and pipe jamming 5,6 . One of the most important problems in drilling in shale formations is the instability of shale formations, which poses an enormous challenge to the oil and gas drilling industry 7,8 .…”

In the process of drilling oil and gas wells, the shrinkage and falling of wellbore walls are often caused by the expansion of mud shale water. To date, conventional additives have been unable to plug the pore throats of shale rock with nanoscale pores and thus cannot effectively solve the problem of wellbore instability encountered in shale formation drilling. In view of this situation, the idea of using nanosilica to plug the nanopore throat of mud shale is proposed to reduce its permeability and to slow water intrusion. The influences of nanosilica on the properties of brine-base drilling fluid drilling fluid are evaluated by measuring the viscosity, filtration loss and swelling of the drilling fluid. The results of laboratory experiments show that the improvement in drilling fluid properties can only be achieved on the basis of salt resistance; that is, a salt-resistant soil slurry should be used. A concentration of 1–5% nanosilica can improve the viscosity of the drilling fluid by increasing the internal friction between particles. However, nanosilica materials are sensitive to salt concentration. Nanosilica particles can be deposited on the surface of a filter cake to block the pores of the filter paper, and the filtration loss reduction rate can reach 40.2%. Blocking the pores of the clay plays a role in preventing the clay from absorbing water and expanding. The optimal addition amount of silica is 3%, and its salt resistance can reach 16%. Considering the experimental results of filtration loss, swelling amount and cost performance, 3%NP + 4%NaCl + SWM-B is selected as the optimal formula. The results of this study can be applied to effectively improve the phenomenon of wellbore instability during drilling in shale formations, and it has important application value.
