The Influence of XC-Polymer on Drilling Fluid Filter Cake Properties and Formation Damage
Author(s): Shafeeg O Blkoor and Fattah KAShafeeg O Blkoor and Fattah KA
The filter cake characterization is very essential for doing well selection of the drilling fluids that eliminates the drilling problems such as formation damage. A correct knowledge of filter cake properties gives petroleum engineers a tool for efficiently managing hydrocarbon production process of a field. This study aimed to experimentally investigate the effect of different concentration of XC-Polymer on filter cake properties, filtrate loss and formation damage to select the optimum concentration of the XC-Polymer. High Pressure-High Temperature (HPHT) filter press with ceramic disk device was used to conduct these experiments. Seven samples of water-based drilling were used in this study. The chemical compositions of the filter cake were described by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results show that the optimum concentration of the XC-Polymer in current study is 1...
