Patent number: 11034880Abstract: Oil-based drilling fluid compositions comprising an oil phase comprising a base oil, an aqueous phase comprising water, at least one emulsifier, and one or more additives. The at least one emulsifier comprises an amino amide comprising the formula R—CO—NH—R?—NH—R?—NH2, where R is a fatty acid alkyl and R? and R? are alkyl groups. The one or more additives are chosen from a wetting agent, a rheology modifier, a fluid-loss control additive, and a weighting additive. Methods of making the oil-based drilling fluid compositions and methods of drilling a subterranean well utilizing the oil-based drilling fluid compositions are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2020Date of Patent: June 15, 2021Assignees: Saudi Arabian Oil Company, Durham University, M-I Drilling Fluids UK LimitedInventors: Musarrat Halima Mohammed, Mona Al Batal, Hugh Christopher Greenwell, Andrew Whiting, John Adrian Hall, Gasan Selman Alabedi, Michael Hayward Hodder
