Strengthening shale wellbore with silica nanoparticles drilling fluid

Nanoparticles have been widely used to reduce wellbore instability problems of shale formation. In this paper, nanoparticle-containing water-based drilling fluids (WBDFs) and oil-based drilling fluids (OBDFs) were evaluated by running three new tests including spontaneous imbibition, swelling rate a...
