This part of ISO 10414 provides standard procedures for determining the following characteristics of
water-based drilling fluids:
a) drilling fluid density (mud weight);
b) viscosity and gel strength;
c) filtration;
d) water, oil and solids contents;
e) sand content;
f) methylene blue capacity;
g) pH;
h) alkalinity and lime content;
i) chloride content;
j) total hardness as calcium.
Annexes A through K provide additional test methods which may be used for
? chemical analysis for calcium, magnesium, calcium sulfate, sulfide, carbonate and potassium;
? determination of shear strength;
? determination of resistivity;
? removal of air;
? drill-pipe corrosion monitoring;
? sampling, inspection and rejection;
? rig-site sampling;
? calibration and verification of glassware, thermometers, viscometers, retort-kit cup and drilling-fluid
balances;
? permeability-plugging testing at high temperature and high pressure for two types of equipment;
? example of a report form for water-based drilling fluid.
