A method of servicing a wellbore extending from a surface of the earth and penetrating a subterranean formation, including: removing water from an aqueous based wellbore servicing fluid by contacting the aqueous based wellbore servicing fluid with a porous substrate coated with a hydrophilic and oleophobic coating, whereby water is removed from the aqueous based wellbore servicing fluid via passage through the porous substrate, and whereby a water concentration and a volume of the aqueous based wellbore servicing fluid are reduced and a density of the aqueous based wellbore servicing fluid is increased to provide a modified aqueous based wellbore servicing fluid.

Methods including precipitated and mined calcium carbonate lost circulation materials for use in subterranean formation operations. The precipitated calcium carbonate lost circulation materials are formed under a chosen set of precipitation conditions, including in situ in a subterranean formation. The mined calcium carbonate lost circulation materials are obtained in a desired morphological form under naturally occurring mined conditions. The precipitated and mined calcium carbonate lost circulation materials may be needle-shaped aragonite having an aspect ratio of about 1.4 to about 15.

A treatment fluid comprises: a metal oxide, wherein the metal oxide is capable of forming a chelate complex or coordination complex with a ligand, wherein the chelate complex or coordination complex has a setting time of less than 90 minutes at a temperature of 71° F. and a pressure of 1 atmosphere. A method of treating a portion of a subterranean formation comprises: introducing the treatment fluid into the subterranean formation; allowing or causing a chelate complex or coordination complex to form between the metal oxide and a ligand; and allowing or causing the chelate complex or coordination complex to set.
摘要:
Characterizing the decay of the microstructure of a drilling fluid gel using a model based on two exponential functions. Based on the model, identify at least two components of the decay model comprising a fast decay component and a slow decay component, wherein the fast decay component decays more quickly than the slow decay component. The decay of the microstructure of the gel over a time period can be determined using a rheometer or viscometer. Wellbore processes, including start up and tripping operations can be optimized based on the determination of the fast decay component and/or a slow decay component of the drilling fluid gel.
摘要:
Systems and methods to determine a characteristic of a drilling fluid are presented. A method to determine a characteristic of a drilling fluid includes obtaining a measurement of a mud density of a drilling fluid formed from a mixture of a plurality of components. The method also includes obtaining a measurement of a thermal conductivity of the drilling fluid and determining an error function of a calculation of characteristics of the drilling fluid, where the error function is indicative of a threshold difference between the calculation of the characteristics of the drilling fluid and the characteristics of the drilling fluid obtained from retort data of a fluid distillation process. The method further includes determining, based on the error function, an oil water ratio of the drilling fluid and an average specific gravity of the drilling fluid.
摘要:
A method comprising determining a concentration of one or more components of a wellbore servicing fluid during a wellbore servicing operation; and adjusting or maintaining a composition of the wellbore servicing fluid being introduced into a wellbore and/or an operational parameter of the wellbore servicing operation based on the determining of the concentration of the one or more components, wherein the determining of the concentration of the one or more components comprises contacting a sample of the wellbore servicing fluid with a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) device to provide a sample response indicative of the concentration of the one or more components.
摘要:
Apparatuses and methods measure a specified volume of a drilling fluid for a test sample. An electrical parameter of the test sample is measured; and a chemical formulated to effect a change in the electrical parameter of the test sample is added in known increments. After each incremental addition of the chemical, the electrical parameter of the test sample is measured to determine if the electrical parameter measurement is at a stable value. When the electrical parameter measurement is at a stable value, the electrical parameter is correlated with an amount of water in the drilling fluid.
摘要:
In some examples, a downhole torque measurement tool comprises a first surface of a structure and a second surface of the structure. The second surface is facing the first surface, and a shear stress sensor is positioned on the first surface. A flexible coupling is positioned between the shear stress sensor and the second surface, and the flexible coupling is coupled to the first and second surfaces.
