About Us
NovaMuda is dedicated to assisting and reinvigorating the drilling fluid industry and addressing several challenges encountered during the drilling process. Henceforth, it has developed a biodegradable, non-toxic, low-cost water-based drilling mud with excellent formation control properties and improved thermal stability. The main additive used in producing water-based muds is bentonite, a mineral found in clay beds. This also lubricates and cools the cutting tools while protecting them against corrosion. The Company will alleviate the potential hazards of the oil-based and synthetic muds and curb their failures by leveraging novel ecologically friendly additives to manufacture water-based muds that improve efficacy and don’t pose any threat to the ecosystem.
Problems To Solve
- Related to Oil-Based Muds (OBMs)
- Negative Impact on the Environment
- Costly
- Related to Water-based Muds (WBMs)
- Poor Suspension & Filtration Properties
- Large Clay Contents
- Other Problems
- Viscosity & Gel Strength of Drilling Muds
- Formation Damage
Our Solution
NovaMuda has developed a low-cost, biodegradable water-based drilling mud with improved properties and no harmful chemicals in the formulation. It is made from a carbomer with the main additive Bentonite, a mineral found in clay beds. Being less toxic and environment-friendly, water-based muds can be highly used in drilling non-traditional hydrocarbon reservoirs and can thrive well in the oil and gas industry.
Since carbomer is a specific grade of polyacrylic acid that has tailor-made rheological and filtration properties, the water-based mud is stable under various pressures and temperatures, thus reducing the risks of gas blow-outs and fire hazards along with increased fluid loss control and greatly improved hole cleaning and wellbore stability in comparison to conventional drilling fluids.
NovaMuda also optimized the viscosity behaviour and gel strength in the water-based mud formulation by varying the carbomer’s molecular weight and branch structure, which is why the product is highly recommendable for drilling deep or high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) wells.
