Book Description
Drilling is a critical component in many segments of U.S. industry such as resource recovery (e.g., oil, gas, mining), civil infrastructure systems (e.g., sewers, highway tunnels, subways), environmental remediation, and for scientific purposes. Research undertaken for new and improved drilling systems and processes can have an enormous impact on U.S. productivity. This book provides an examination of the technical and scientific feasibility of substantial advances in drilling and related technologies. Concepts for new mechanical and non-mechanical drilling applicationsâ€"including advances in knowledge of the tool-rock interactionâ€"are reviewed, research opportunities are identified, and recommendations are made on the scope and direction needed to realize these opportunities for improved methods of drilling.
Clay Science in Drilling and Drilling Fluids

Pages : 371
Book Description
Clay Science in Drilling and Drilling Fluids starts from the fundamentals of clay science and drilling, then comprehensively presents the advances of clay science related to drilling and drilling fluids and ends with discussion of industrial clay products. The topics combine to present the whole picture of fundamental research and industrial applications of clays and clay minerals in drilling operations, which is of general interest to researchers and engineers working in the related fields.Oil and gas are the primary sources of energy in human society and the foundation of the petrochemical industry. However, extracting these resources present a number of drilling challenges, including high temperature and high pressure (HTHP), offshore drilling, high angle drilling, and even horizontal drilling, among others. As a result, it is crucial to develop advanced drilling and drilling fluid technologies. Clay science in drilling and drilling fluids should be clarified for this purpose because clays and clay minerals are one of the most important components of drilling fluids and have a significant impact on wellbore stability. Clay Science in Drilling and Drilling Fluids covers the different levels of clay science in drilling and drilling fluids, i.e., form fundamentals, the latest research results, applications, and commercial products. - Covers the fundamentals of clay minerals, drilling, and drilling operations - Discusses applications of the research and science to real world problems - Introduces available commercial clay products and recommends their use for specific situations
