  • Apparatus and method for measuring settling of weighting materials in drilling and completion fluids
    Patent number: 12174169
    Abstract: An apparatus to test a drilling fluid in a laboratory includes a test cell configured to test the fluid to determine a Sag Factor of the fluid. The test cell may be heated with a heating jacket to a predefined temperature. A plurality of densitometers are configured to continuously measure a density of the fluid circulating in the test cell. A computing device processes the density measurements to determine a Sag Factor of the drilling fluid.
