“…In this study, Iraqi bentonite was grinded to powder and sieved to size <75µm (200 mesh) [17], then dried in oven at 180 ⁰C for 12hr [18]. 22.5 gm of bentonite was mixed with 350ml [19] of distilled water for 20 minutes and left for 24 hr to hydrate [20]. Then, the rheological properties of mud were measured.…”

“…It is a viscous, clay laden heavy fluid designed to perform a variety of functions [1,2]. Nigeria as a nation is reputed with substantial amount of clay deposit which its full potential has not been exploited for drilling purposes as a result of its inability in satisfying the API requirement (standard) when compared with the imported bentonite [3][4][5][6][7][8]. The demand for oil globally hasbeen on the increase and is predictable to persist in the future which then call for more drilling activities especially in Nigeria which is reputed as a major oil producer and exporting nation.…”

“…A lot of researches have been conducted on the improvement to Nigerian bentonite clay for oil and gas drilling operations. It was observed that the approach used did not improve the mud viscosity much except in cases where viscosifiers were added to the mud (Agwu et al 2016 ; Apugo-Nwosu et al 2011 ; Arabi et al 2017 , 2018 ; Arinkoola et al 2019 ; Falode et al 2007 ; Omole et al 1989 ). Hence, the industry still relies on imported bentonite clay.…”
