OSTI ID:397995
The search for recoverable hydrocarbons in the Gulf of Mexico has moved into increasingly deeper waters. Since its introduction in the Gulf of Mexico in 1993, the ester-based drilling fluid system has been used on five deepwater wells. This paper describes the applications of the ester-based system and its ability to handle the special challenges of deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico.
