Investigation of methane/drilling mud phase behavior and its influence to hydrocarbon drilling activity

Abstract Knowledge of methane dissolution behavior in drilling mud is of major importance to early kick detection and well control operation in oil and gas drilling industry. In this work, methane solubility experiments in water‐based and oil‐based muds were conducted over wide ranges of temperature...
