LNG For Exploration & Production - Drilling Operations - Case Study

Use of gas in drilling actually began several years before (2010) use of gas in frac operations (2013). The scope of a rig retrofit with three (3) engines vs. 12-20 engines on a frac spread is one major reason why drilling innovated with natural gas before frac operations. At one time (mid-2014) there were over 100 drilling rigs employing natural gas either in a dual fuel configuration with ...

Viscosity Measurement Tool

Viscosity is a measurement of a fluids resistance to flow: the greater the resistance, the higher the viscosity. As measured by the MARSH FUNNEL, the viscosity of the fluid in question is influenced by the density of the fluid (solids content) and gelation rate (beneficiated solids content). The viscosity of the drilling fluid in use should be based on a combination of the following parameters: ...
