Impact of Modified Hydrolytic Lignins Additives on the Functionality of Water-Based Drilling Fluids

Systematic field studies results of the impact of modified hydrolysis lignin additives on mud and polymer mud drilling fluids functionality were presented. Samples of the original and modified hydrolytic lignin were determined by chemical and elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and BET. It was concluded that the additives of the original and modified hydrolytic lignin can reduce filtrationloss quality, reduce the friction coefficient, inhibit the swelling behavior, and increase the stability of mud drilling fluids.
