视频 SLB SME Talk on the Advantages of Aqueous Fluid Solutions
Shermin Akhatar talks about SLB Aqueous Fluid Solutions sustainability, performance, and economics
Aqueous Fluid Solutions
Water-based drilling fluids that perform with sustainable purpose
With SLB water-based drilling fluid systems, you get the performance of oil-based fluids with the environmental acceptability of water-based fluid.
Read the case study that inspired the Dude video.
Drilling fluids that are more than just water
Operators are moving toward water-based fluids for their operations to comply with sustainability requirements. In anticipation, we have developed the most complete portfolio of aqueous fluid solutions that not only deliver sustainability with competitive performance in drilling and reservoir drill-in fluids (RDFs) but also advanced digital management and automation, along with sustainability tools that help quantify reduced emissions through the entire fluids management life cycle. So, you maintain your performance edge while lowering total cost of ownership and sustainability footprint with a wide variety of options based on specific targets outlined by you. These options help keep operations above water by lowering logistical costs, eliminating transport of base oil or cuttings, and minimizing the costs associated with lost circulation.
