Description
Summary:Directional drilling has been used in the oil and gas industry for such a long period. This technique usually cost the downhole drilling companies on such damages upon the downhole tools. The damages are almost likely due to the friction and wear behaviour resulted between the downhole tools and the wall of the bore hole. In this thesis, an assessment on one of the factors will be done, which is the drilling fluid. In this experiment, different kind of drilling fluid will be used through the experiment, in order to get different wearing behavior. The experiments will be done using the pin-on-disk test, with some minor modifications, and fabrication on the rig or its components. The results will then be tabulated into with respected to the type of drilling fluid
