If you want to know why is removing solids from drilling mud so important, we can get more questions, but these questions help us to solve this question.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Firstly, we should know where is the solids from.<\/h2>\n

HA, when we drilling, the drilling mud take them out.<\/p>\n

What is the mud\u2019s function?<\/h2>\n

OK, so we get one more question, what the mud do in solids control system, i.e. what is the mud\u2019s function. You can see How Drilling Mud Work In Solids Control System And Drilling Rig<\/a> <\/strong>that I write before. I will list the main function again:<\/p>\n

Remove cuttings from well
\nSuspend and release cuttings
\nControl formation pressures
\nSeal permeable formations
\nMaintain wellbore stability
\nMinimizing formation damage
\nCool, lubricate, and support the bit and drilling assembly
\nTransmit hydraulic energy to tools and bit
\nEnsure adequate formation evaluation
\nControl corrosion (in acceptable level)
\nFacilitate cementing and completion<\/strong><\/p>\n

And then we can find the answer: We must get high quality drilling mud<\/a> to ensure the drilling process.<\/p>\n

COST of drilling mud<\/a> and environment friendship<\/h2>\n

But why don\u2019t we produce some new mud, here we go, I have the same question.<\/p>\n

The answer is only one word\u2014COST. The cost of produce new drilling mud<\/a> is higher than this, it is just an economic choice.<\/p>\n

Removing solids from drilling mud limit the cost and what\u2019s more important, it\u2019s good to the environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
