EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF NANOCLAY ABSORBENTS AND ADDITIVES’ EFFECTS ON MODIFICATION OF RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF DRILLING FLUIDS IN POROUS MEDIA USING GLASS MICROMODEL
要約
This study explores the possibility of Na nanoclay and bentonite (B) to meet the required mud drilling properties. An appropriate fluid must minimize formation damage, enhance well productivity, produce higher added value, and save cost and time, which depend on the introduction of less-invasive fluid formulations with greater compatibility with the properties of reservoir rock. Nine different formulations were built, and subsequently their rheological properties were measured according to American Petroleum Institute (API) standard by using a rotating coaxial cylinder MCR300 rheometer. A porous media model was designed and applied on the glass in order to measure the dynamic behavior of fluids, especially functions like bridging and lubricating of nanoclay at different concentrations. Statistical analyses showed that 75 wt % of nanoclay suspension and polyanionic cellulose (PAC) could successfully improve the rheological properties. The existence of nanoclay in the suspension could significantly compensate viscosity reduction up to two times with increasing shear rate. These are proved by dynamic tests as well.
