Study of the Rheology of Oil – Based Drilling Mud (OBM) Subjected to Green Weighting Agent Substitution

The aim of this study is to investigate the rheology properties of oil-based mud system using calcium carbonate from cockle shell as the weighting agent. This study will conduct experiments focused on the rheology characteristics and electrical stability to compare the properties commercial mud s...
