AADE Fluids Conference: New Treatment Reduces Direct Emulsion Drilling Fluid

Cost By Recycling System Components, Minimizing Dilution.

AES’ own Richard Toomes might have thought he was off the hook to present his paper when the 2020 AADE Fluids Conference was canceled… he thought wrong. In this episode, we sit down with Ricky and discuss his AADE Technical Paper: Horizontal Openhole Completion Techniques Revitalize Fields on the Texas Gulf Coast

Data analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence…what are they and why do people keep talking about them? How could these tools help the oilfield and how could they improve drilling fluids?

In this episode, we dive into filtration testing. It may seem a tad lab-intensive, but this type of testing can end up in the field on extreme wells or those that are a little more challenging. We run through some tests that you may have or have not heard of, so feel free to send […]

Aphrons are a method used to get a really low-density mud by using encapsulated micro-bubbles to lower the mud weight. Questions remain about how such fluids work, so in this episode, we will debunk some of the myths and discuss why you would or would not want to use them.
