Water-based chemicals and technology for drilling, completion, and workover fluids /

Oil and gas engineers today use three main factors in deciding drilling fluids: cost, performance, and environmental impact, making water-based products a much more attractive option. This book delivers all the background and infrastructure needed for an oil and gas engineer to utilize water-based p...
