Abstract:There is always an issue with cleaning the holes, especially when drilling is taking place. Drilling fluid is crucial to moving drill cuttings from the wellbore's annular region to the surface. Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) surface-modified for usage in aqueous drilling fluids are investigated in this work to tackle these problems. Because it is economical and environmentally benign, a water-based mud (WBM) with modified GNP (GRT) made from rice husk was chosen to carry the cuttings. It is possible to increase… Show more
