Composition and Properties of Drilling and Completion Fluids.
The petroleum industry in general has been dominated by engineers and production specialists. The upstream segment of the industry is dominated byÈdrilling/completion engineers. Usually, neither of those disciplines have a great deal of trainingïn the chemistry aspects of drilling and completing a w...
