Paper Number: SPE-200515-MS
..., severe fluid losses, high mud costs, formation damage, and post-well production issues. Clear fluid brine systems such as Calcium Chloride (CaCl 2 ) and Calcium Bromide (CaBr 2 ) are usually preferred because of their compatibility with coals and their ability to minimize formation damage. However...

Paper Number: SPE-113688-MS
... Abstract Underbalanced (UBD) operations are being utilized with increasing frequency as a means of reducing invasive formation damage, minimizing problems with differential sticking, lost circulation, and increasing rates of penetration in many drilling operations. Additional to the operational...

Minimizing formation damage in the near- wellbore region and thus ensuring proper well performance for enhanced productivity of the well also results in increased recovery factor. Formation damage caused by conventional overbalanced drilling (OBD) can be reduced or eliminated through UBD...
