Drilling/completion fluids

This paper describes an experimentation trial deploying and operating a computer-vision system on a deepwater rig to measure drilled cuttings in real time using a remotely monitored camera system.
Researchers with the National Energy Technology Laboratory showed that naturally occurring signals in underground fluids can serve as effective indicators of flow patterns between existing wellbores. Understanding these patterns can lead to increased efficiency and safety.
This paper highlights nontraditional methods to cure oil-based-mud losses in horizontal wells drilled in unconventional plays.
