Experimental investigation of the effects of silica nanoparticle on hole cleaning efficiency of water-based drilling mud

Effective cuttings transports and hole cleaning is crucial for obtaining an efficient drilling operation. Recently, the use of nanotechnology have been exploited to improve rheological and filtration properties of water-based mud. Herein, water-based mud (WBM) was formulated with nanosilica to enhan...
