Sustainable treatment of oil contaminated waste: oil-based mud (OBM) drill cuttings and soil.
Environmental pollution from oilfield drilling waste poses potential hazards which can lead to ecological imbalance. The predominant pollutant from oilfield waste is petroleum hydrocarbons. Some effects of petroleum hydrocarbon contamination in soil include loss of nutrients, reduced fertility, …

Processing, structure and thermo-mechanical properties of reclaimed nanoclay, and its application in polyamide 6 and low-density polyethylene nanocomposites.
Oil-based mud (OBM) wastes are generated every year all over the world, and remain a serious challenge for the oil and gas industry. The potential solution for this global problem is either to destroy these hazardous chemicals completely - a significant challenge - or to use/utilise them for …

Admicellar Polymerization to Compatibilize Calcium Carbonate With Oil-Based Drilling Mud
… calcium carbonate (CC) are added to drilling mud to improve mud properties and performance during oil and gas drilling operations. Oil-based mud (OBM), a more preferred drilling mud, being hydrophobic is particularly non-compatible with hydrophilic CC. This work explored an economically viable …

Low oil-water ratio invert emulsion mud for unconventional shale reservoirs
… and management of the traditional diesel oil-based mud used for drilling difficult formations such as shale, there is the necessity to develop an environmentally friendly drilling mud. Vegetable oils such as Jatropha have proven to be a comparable alternative to diesel oil. However, there …

Analysis of effect of using estimated shear wave data as compared to measured compressional and shear wave sonic log
… errors that are due to drilling conditions, mud invasion etc. It may also contain cycle skips and might contain a lot of missing data and information. It is because of the poor quality of this type of log that has often made well log analysis companies and log interpreters neglect the …

Wellbore Strengthening by Means of Nanoparticle-Based Drilling Fluids
… industry enable safe drilling by preventing mud losses, drilling in narrow mud windows, accessing reserves in depleted reservoirs, and also has the potential to reduce the number of casing runs. Until now, the predominant wellbore strengthening mechanism and its occurrence in ultra-low …
