Sıo2 ve al2o3 nanoparçacıkların sondaj sıvısının filtrasyon, reolojik ve fizikokimyasal özellikleri üzerindeki etkileri

There are many studies which reported the nanoparticles could develop the rheological behavior and the properties of filtration for water-based mud. Different types of nanoparticles were used in the experiment including silicon oxide and aluminum oxide, which were evaluated at three concentrations. In addition, the development and comparison of a new fluids utilizing a biopolymer (xanthan gum)/nanoparticle (Al2O3 and SiO2) mix to optimize the properties of a water-based mud (WBM) formulation. In this research, the main objective is to compare the influence of changing the amount of Al2O3 and SiO2 nanoparticle on the rheological properties and filtration rate of WBM at low-temperature 30 oC and low pressure 150 psi (LPLT). The nano drilling fluids showed higher yield point, plastic viscosity, and apparent viscosity. In addition, 10 seconds gel was decreased by aluminum oxide while, it was increased by silicon oxide. A viscometer (model 3500) was used to measure the rheological properties of drilling muds. Filtration process was conducted with Fan high-pressure high-temperature static filter press. In terms of hole cleaning and filtration rate, properly engineered nanofluids showed more effective performance than conventional water-based muds
