Rheological Modeling and Numerical Simulation of Annular Flow of a Drilling Mud Based on Local Materials: Theoretical Parametric Study
Environmentally friendly drilling fluids based on locally available materials represent a promising alternative to conventional formulations. This study investigates the potential use of kaolinitic clay from Brazzaville (Republic of the Congo), okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) mucilage, and plant ashes as components of...
