    Experimental investigation of self-repeating effect of different nanoparticles on internal mud cake formation by water-based drilling fluid in directional wells

    , Article Drilling Technology Conference 2016, 22 August 2016 through 24 August 2016 ; 2016 ; 9781613994504 (ISBN) Sedaghatzadeh, M ; Shahbazi, K ; Ghazanfari, M. H ; Zargar, G ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    In this paper, the impact of three parameters including nanoparticles geometry, particles aggregation and borehole inclination on induced formation damage from water based drilling fluids were investigated by means of experimental studies. Accordingly, we designed a dynamic filtration setup capable to rotate and change well inclination. Nano-based drilling fluids consisting of spherical, cubical and tubular shapes nanoparticles as fluid loss additives were used. Mud cake quality, core permeability impairment and degree of formation damage at various well inclinations were examined. The cluster structure of aggregated particles were determined using fractal theory and applying dynamic light...
