Role of particle size distribution of bridging agent for drilling mud on formation damage near wellbore
One of the most important aspects of drilling mud is the optimization of particle size of bridging agent. The bridging agent is deliberately sized to minimize the fluid loss into the reservoir and to control the permeability near the wellbore. The objective of this study is to visualize the invasion...
