How to clarify the classification of the drilling fluid systems

Drilling fluid systems can generally be divided into 3 categories and 7 sub-categories. They are liquid-based drilling fluid, gas-based drilling fluid and mixed-based drilling fluid.

  1. Water-based drilling fluid systems, including oil-in-water drilling fluids. Its solid phase particles are suspended in water or brine, and the oil can be emulsified into the water. At this time, the water is the continuous phase.

The composition is: bentonite + water + chemical treatment agent + weighting material + drill cuttings.

  1. Oil-based drilling fluid system, including full-oil drilling fluid, water-in-oil drilling fluid, and synthetic-based drilling fluid, whose solid phase particles are suspended in oil, and water or brine is emulsified in oil, that is, oil is the continuous phase.

The composition is: diesel oil+asphalt/organic soil+treatment agent.

  1. Synthetic-based drilling fluid system: It is mainly a synthetic system. Including ether-based, ester-based, poly-olefin-based and isomerized-olefin-based drilling fluids, etc.

KOSUN can provide oil-based mud zero discharge treatment systems, water-based mud zero discharge treatment systems, and composite-based mud zero discharge treatment systems, mainly for drilling waste treatment solutions!
