Patent number: 11578544Abstract: This disclosure provides a pre-mixed lost circulation treatment that can be pre-mixed ahead of time at a plant and delivered to a drilling site in one or more transport containers because the pre-mixture having a shelf life of at least one month and possibly longer. Because the components of the lost circulation treatment are mixed at a controlled mix site, the consistency of the lost circulation treatment is improved and can be better maintained from one lost circulation treatment to another. Further, one or more of the components of the pre-mixed treatment can be placed in a portable tote container that can be quickly and easily transported to the drilling site upon demand, or the tote can be delivered to the drilling site before a lost circulation zone is actually encountered.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2017Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Donald Whitfill, Jason T. Scorsone, Sharath Savari, Reem Mohammed Alburaikan, Waseem Abdulrazzaq, Carl Eduard Albrecht

Patent number: 11492858Abstract: The effect of drilling fluids on particular subterranean environments can be analyzed to improve the formation of drilling fluids and additives such as lost circulation materials. A plug can be generated by a particle plugging apparatus by injecting lost circulation material into the particle plugging apparatus. A set of tests to be performed on the plug can be identified. The set of tests can include at least one physical test and at least one electronic test. A test schedule indicating the order in which each test of the set of tests is to be performed can be defined. The set of tests can be executed to generate a testing output. The testing output can be used to generate a three-dimensional network model of the plug.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2019Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Waseem Abdulrazzaq, Reem Alburaikan, Hussain Al Qatari

Patent number: 11435271Abstract: Described herein are methods and apparatus for testing bond strength of a chemical-sealant, lost circulation material to a subterranean sample. An apparatus can include a body defining walls of a chamber to receive a subterranean core sample from a wellbore, the body being sized to receive a chemical-sealant lost-circulation material (CS-LCM) to an area of the chamber between the core sample and the body, and a removable insert mateable to the body, the insert defining a base of the chamber, where the test apparatus is positionable to transfer a force to the core sample to decouple the core sample from the CS-LCM such that a shear bond strength of the CS-LCM to the core sample is determinable based on a maximum amount of force used to decouple the core sample from the CS-LCM.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2018Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Waseem Abdulrazzaq, Reem Alburaikan
