ABSTRACT
This experiment examined the effect of mud thinner on drilling fluid density and viscosity. The function of mud thinner is to control and reduce the apparent density of the mud by calculate the amount of water that needed to decrease the density.

Integrating Geomechanics With Operational Practices Improves Extended-Reach D...Society of Petroleum Engineers
Extended-reach wells present difficult drilling challenges, which if inadequately understood and addressed can yield significant downside risks and extensive non-productive time (NPT). These challenges are mainly due to complex well designs that combine high-deviation and extended-reach wellbores with difficult geology and hostile environments. Understanding the challenges and developing solutions are important to deliver the well with the proper casing specifications for production purposes.
Geomechanically, due to their long reaches and high deviations, borehole instability and lost circulations are particularly dominant in the overburden shale sections of extended-reach and horizontal wells. However, a good understanding of the rock failure mechanisms and an innovative use of the wellbore strengthening techniques can mitigate these geomechanical challenges through integration with good drilling practices such as efficient equivalent circulating density (ECD) management and effective hole-cleaning strategies. In addition, the long open-hole exposure typically experienced in these wells can cause chemical, thermal and/or fluid penetration issues that can further complicate the difficult drilling conditions. These secondary influences further stress the importance of incorporating geomechanical understanding in drilling fluids formulation.
This presentation focuses on the geomechanical challenges of drilling extended-reach wells. It highlights the need to integrate geomechanical solutions with appropriate drilling practices, particularly solutions based on good understanding of the intricate relationship between borehole stability, lost circulation, ECD, hole cleaning and bottom-hole assembly (BHA) optimizations in overcoming the drilling performance limiters. A case history will be presented as an example.

It also contains production type curves from Devon's operations in the Barnett shale.
SCOOP - STACK play.ppt
This document discusses exploration and production activities in the Anadarko Basin, with a focus on the STACK and SCOOP plays. It provides maps and data on various companies' wells, production figures, lateral lengths, proppant usage, estimated ultimate recoveries, drilling costs, and break even prices for different areas and geologic formations like the Woodford, Meramec, and Miss Lime. Metrics like initial production rates, cumulative production after six months, and estimated ultimate recovery are compared for wells across multiple operators in the STACK and SCOOP plays.
Unconventional Wells not yet completed.ppt
The document contains details of over 40 wells including their API number, operator, lease name, well number, location, and target formation. The majority of wells listed are located in sections 25-33S and ranges 32-34E targeting the Avalon, Bone Spring, and Wolfcamp formations with operators including BTA and Texaco.
Bone Spring 2 porosity distribution in Lea Co New Mexico.pdf
The document discusses the Permian paleogeography and stratigraphy of the Delaware Basin in New Mexico. It analyzes porosity log data from the Bone Spring 2 formation which indicates thicker zones of higher porosity oriented in a NE-SW direction, suggesting deposition from channels sourced from structural highlands to the north, east and west. Core data shows higher porosity corresponds to higher permeability. Mapping porosity trends can help define production sweet spots and maximize the economic potential of the Bone Spring 2 play.
production Bone Spring-Wolfcamp vs other resource plays.ppt
The document contains various charts and data about oil and gas production, costs, and forecasts in major North American shale plays such as the Permian Basin, focusing on the Delaware Basin, Midland Basin, and Wolfcamp and Bone Spring formations. Metrics discussed include lateral lengths, proppant usage, well costs, production rates, break-even prices, rig counts, permits, drilled uncompleted wells, and forecasts for production and prices out to 2040. Recent acquisition costs in the Delaware and Midland basins are also mentioned.
Permian Delaware and Midland basins play.ppt
The document discusses the geology and production of the Permian Basin across the Midland and Delaware Basins. It covers the stratigraphy, depositional systems, structure, productive areas, key formations like the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring, resource play polygons, and production type curves. Maps show attributes like thickness, porosity, gas-oil ratios, and acreage ownership across the Permian Basin provinces in Texas.
GSA special paper 222
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness and well-being.
