Drilling Fluid Additives

Water-based drilling fluids consist of a mixture of solids, liquids, and chemicals, with water being the continuous phase. Solids may be active or inactive. The active (hydrophilic) solids such as hydratable clays react with the water phase, dissolving chemicals and making the mud viscous. The inert (hydrophobic) solids such as sand and shale do not react with the water and chemicals to any significant degree. The inert solids, which vary in specific gravity, make it difficult to analyze and control the solids in the drilling fluid (i.e., inert solids produce undesirable effects).

Broad classes of water-based drilling-fluid additives are in use today. Clays, polymers, weighting agents, fluid loss-control additives, dispersants or thinners, inorganic chemicals, lost-circulation materials, and surfactants are the most common types of additives used in water-based muds.

Cement Additives

Additives play significant role in oil and gas well cementing operations. There are varieties of cement additives that have been developed to allow the use of Portland cement in many different oil and gas well operations. In an attempt to formulate the appropriate cement slurry for any cementing job, the right additive must selected and the right quantity must be added. Additives have different functions and are broadly classified as accelerator, retarders, extenders, fluid loss agents, dispersants and many more. Each of the broad classification has different categories of additives that have been developed to perform almost the same function during cement slurry design. However, there some additives under each major type that are commonly used in cement slurry design for oil and gas well cementing operations.
