  • Automated Fluid System
    Publication number: 20260043302
    Abstract: A method of controlling the composition of a drilling fluid comprises receiving measurements of properties of a drilling fluid; determining a concentration of the components of the drilling fluid by inputting the measured properties to a fluid model that relates the properties of the drilling fluid to the concentrations of each of the components; determining a desired concentration of each of the plurality of components of the drilling fluid, by inputting desired properties of the drilling fluid to the fluid model; and determining a quantity of one or more additives to be added to the drilling fluid to achieve the desired concentration of each of the plurality of components. The invention includes a controller (20) for controlling the method and a system (1) therefore.
