ABSTRACT
With the development of the petroleum industry, offshore oil and gas resources have become a key area of petroleum development. As one of the key technologies in current deepwater oil and gas exploration and development, deepwater drilling technology is related to the success or failure of drilling operations. The technical problems of marine deepwater drilling are analyzed: well wall stability, drilling fluid rheology adjustment at low temperature, natural gas hydrate generation and formation decomposition, wellbore cleaning, etc., and the research progress of marine deepwater drilling fluid systems is reviewed, including water-based drilling fluids. system, oil-based drilling fluid system, synthetic-based drilling fluid system.
KEYWORDS
