Abstract:
From many years Water Based Mud is being used as drilling mud in oil and gas industry. The base that is the water can be collected from different areas so there could be a difference in the amount of mineral content in it. The concentration of these salts or minerals could referred as water hardness. The water hardness will vary from location to location because of the difference in the change in salts present. Usually the carbonates and sulphates of magnesium and calcium will be the reason if this hardness. This project is focusing on how the water hardness will affect the properties of the drilling fluids. In this we will be determining the effect on Low Pressure and Low Temperature (LPLT) wells by using LPLT filter press as a model to find the filtration as well as the mud loss properties. Extensive research work has been conducted on the effect of water hardness on the rheological properties of the drilling fluids such as plastic viscosity, apparent viscosity and gel strength as well as the filtration properties. Graphs has been plotted on all these properties and results has been obtained. The comparative studies of the results shows that the properties are changing by a huge margin with the change in concentration of the water hardness or the salt content.
