The bentonite is 2-9 parts by weight, the low adhesive aggregation anionic cellulose is 0.1-1 parts by weight, the lignite resin is 1-5 parts by weight, the high temperature resistant and salt resistant filtrate reducer is 0.1-2 parts by weight, the silanol inhibitor is 0.1-2 parts by weight, the inorganic micrometer-nanometer rigid particles are 0.5-5 parts by weight, and the emulsified asphalt is 1-10 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of water.

The present disclosure relates to downhole fluid additives including a clay, a hydroxylated polymer, a cation, and water. The disclosure further relates to downhole fluids, including drilling fluids, spaces, cements, and proppant delivery fluids containing such as downhole fluid additive and methods of using such fluids. The downhole fluid additive may have any of a variety of functions in the downhole fluid and may confer any of a variety of properties upon it, such as salt tolerance or desired viscosities even at high downhole temperatures.

The present invention relates to the field of petroleum industry phase oilfield chemistry, and specifically relates to a bionic and dual-phobic drilling fluid. The drilling fluid contains a bionic wall-fixing agent, a bionic lubricant, a super dual-phobic agent, a scrap-carrying agent and a bionic shale inhibitor. The present invention uses the theory of bionics and the theory of a downhole rock surface being double phobic as a basis. By means of using the bionic wall-fixing agent, the bionic lubricant, the super dual-phobic agent, the scrap-carrying agent and the bionic shale inhibitor, which have special properties of imitating animals and plants in nature, and using a series of bionic treatment agents, a set of bionic and dual-phobic drilling fluid systems, which corresponds to an unconventional, complex oil and gas well, is formed.

The invention relates to powdered lubricants for water based drilling fluids. Conventional liquid lubricants containing particularly divalent ions have the tendency to grease out. The powdered lubricants have excellent dispersion properties and hence do not grease out, when added to the drilling mud in the concentrations, preferably of the order of about 3% or less. The powdered lubricant is a combination of inert fillers with fatty acids that are essentially free from fatty acid esters and metal soaps and have organic acids containing C10-C24 alkyl groups fatty acids. The improved lubricating properties of the drilling muds result in greatly increased life of the rotary drilling bits and marked reduction in torque required to rotate the bit. Solid powdered additives compositions greatly reduce transportation costs and simplify the logistics and environmental concerns associated with shipping large volumes of liquids and overcome the pour point issues associated with liquid additives.
