Drilling Fluid Management & Disposal
Drilling fluid waste management and solids control of drilling mud related technical and developed situation.
The drilling fluid is a major factor in success of the drilling program. There are four mechanical or physical properties to control in the treatment of drilling mud:

The cement used for oil well cementing differs from concrete or masonry work in that it consists of a thin slurry of primarily cement and water. The cement used in oil wells must possess three primary properties. They must possess a proper water-to-cement ratio, a sufficient fluid time to allow placement, and must develop enough strength in a minimum time to bond the pipe to the formation.

Mud rheology refers to the mud of deformation and flow behavior of all forms of matter. Certain rheologic measurements made on fluids, such as viscosity, gel strength, etc. help determine how this fluid will flow under a variety of different conditions. This information is important in the design of circulating systems required to accomplish certain desired objectives in drilling operations.
Viscosity is defined as the resistance of a fluid to flow and is measured as the ratio of the shearing stress to the rate of shearing strain.
