titleOfInvention | Drill fluid and method for tunneling |
abstract | A method for drilling a tunnel through a formation must address environmental concerns. One tunneling method comprises the steps of: preparing a mixed metal-viscosified drilling fluid including bentonite, a mixed metal viscosifier and controlling pH to 8.5 to 9.5 to permit a reaction between the bentonite and the mixed metal viscosifier; adding at least one of: (i) calcium sulfate and (ii) a potassium salt; and pumping the drilling fluid while drilling the tunnel with the pH lowered to 7-9. The amount of mixed metal viscosifier used can be limited such that the weight ratio of mixed metal viscosifier to MBT reaches up to 1:30. In the event that there is a problematic increase in viscosity, a non-toxic anionic thinner can be added to the drilling fluid. One such anionic thinner is a polyacrylate. |
