Potassium carbonate based deep eutectic solvent (DES) as a potential drilling fluid additive in deep water drilling applications

Drilling fluid design is the most vital step in drilling phase. An ideal drilling fluid apart from exhibiting good thixotropic behavior should be efficient in inhibiting the hydrates formation, suppressing shale swelling and improving mud rheology. Lately, Ionic Liquids are being used as drilling fl...
