7. Problem
•5-15 Gallons of drilling
fluid spilled each time a
connection is made
•Losses total, on average,
more than 5000 Gallons
per single well
•1 Gallon of invert
contaminates 1m³ of soil.
Current hazardous and wasteful practice still employed by many
drilling companies
Leads to:
Unscheduled Events
Accidents
7

8. Problem
•Some companies have
reported average surface
losses of over 8,000
gallons of drilling fluid on a
typical horizontal well
found in the US.
“ No-mans-land” of a
substructure covered in
slippery and toxic oil
based drilling fluid
•On problematic wells,
these amounts can easily
balloon to more than
42,000 gallons or 1,000
barrels.
