manganese tetroxide drilling fluid
Description The present invention relates to a drilling fluid containing manganese tetroxide More particularly the invention relates to a waterbased manganese tetroxidecontaining drilling fluid composition which generates high return permeabilities without the need for reservoir stimulation and to a process for its utilization
Drilling fluids have been developed at a wide range of densities using calcium chloride CaCl 2 salt with manganese tetroxide Mn 3 O 4 The small particle size spherical shape and high specific gravity of Mn 3 O 4 make it good weighting material to reduce solids
