“…Nanoparticles have the potential to become a permanent constituent of all drilling mud systems, as they can be an efficient solution of many down-hole problems. NPs as a great alternative replace the traditional strategies and allow current drilling industry to go beyond the limits in order to reach those particular hydrocarbons regularly known as inaccessible [9].…”

Due to the significance and unique properties of Multi-Wall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT), in the present investigation, the viability of these materials in the Water-Based Mud (WBM) is assessed. The impacts of various kinds of MWCNT, mud additives and surfactants on the rheological properties, water loss and drilling fluid stability of the WBM are experimentally investigated. The results have demonstrated various kinds of MWCNT, additives, and surfactants have affected the rheological properties of the WBM. Adding MWCNT and Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) alone or together decrease the terms of rheological properties performance as subsequent order CNT; CNT + PEG; PEG. Surface modified carbon nanotube (Functionalize Carbon Nano Tube [FCNT]) improves rheological properties of the WBM and increases the shale recovery. All in all, the presence of Multi-Wall Carbon Nanotubes increases the efficiency of polymers and improves the rheological properties and performance of the water base mud.

The normal operation of Measurement While Drilling (MWD) instruments is directly impacted by the strength of threaded joints. To investigate the mechanical behavior of threaded joints in Barrel-Type MWD instruments under make-up torque, theoretical analysis is conducted on the load distribution and axial preload force of threaded joints under make-up torque. Based on a typical MWD Instrument, considering the asymmetry of the threads and helix angle, a three-dimensional finite element model of the threaded joint is established. The mechanical behavior of threaded joints under make-up torque is simulated and analyzed using torque loading method. The results indicate that, under make-up torque load, the von-Mises stress distribution on each thread crest of the threaded joint is uneven. The von-Mises stress on the effective engaged threads from the large end to the small end of the threaded joint shows a gradually decreasing trend. During the make-up preloading process of the MWD instrument, excessive make-up torque may lead to the occurrence of thread joint fracture under external load during normal operation. The research findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the mechanical behavior of threaded joints in Barrel-Type MWD instruments under make-up torque load, providing valuable insights for the design and application of threaded joints in Barrel-Type MWD instruments.

“…The particles size is so small that different physical and chemical properties from the bulk material may be obtained. Petroleum industry has taken the advantage of this technology by investing a lot of money and time to enhance and improve the efficiency of many fields such as exploration, drilling, reservoir protection, hydrocarbon recovery and processing [1][2][3]. This technology can definitely provide solutions to problems facing the drilling industry and improve performance to many oil and gas processes [4][5][6][7].…”

Corrosion processes are accountable for serious losses in the oil industry. Although organic and inorganic materials and mixed materials inhibitors have been used for a long time to control or reduce corrosion. Using nano-materials as inhibitors has gained an increasing applications role because of their exceptional properties. Nano materials are good corrosion inhibitors because they possess many advantages such as high efficiency of inhibition, low cost, minimum toxicity and effortless production. This work examines the use of nano-materials as inhibitors to prevent corrosion of carbon steel in drilling mud. Anti-corrosion properties of zinc and nickel ferrite nano materials (ZnFe 2 O 4 , Zn 0.6 Ni 0.4 Fe 2 O 4 ) have been investigated over carbon steel in local Iraqi bentonite mud as a source of the corrosion. It has been found that under the given conditions, ferrites act as efficient corrosion inhibitors of carbon steel.
