Development of key additives for organoclay-free oil-based drilling mud and system performance evaluation

Traditional oil-based drilling muds (OBMs) have a relatively high solid content, which is detrimental to penetration rate increase and reservoir protection. Aimed at solving this problem, an organoclay-free OBM system was studied, the synthesis methods and functioning mechanism of key additives were...
