“…However, due to their higher initial costs, more stringent pollution-control procedures required and more difficult treatment for lost circulation of OBMs, high temperature-resistant WBMs are the preferred choice in deep-drilling applications (Bland et al, 2002;Mario et al, 2007;Zhang et al, 2015). However, WBMs often become ineffective at high temperatures in deep drilling because of their unstable rheological properties, which greatly reduce the hole-cleaning capacity (Tehrani et al, 2007;Alsabagh et al, 2014). Moreover, the increase in the filtration volumes of WBMs into sub-surface formations can reduce oil and gas permeability after mud exposure.…”
