Drilling mud can be contaminated by different types of materials during drilling and cementing operations. So the mud engineer should prepare himself to maintain and cure the mud to minimize the effect of these contaminants. If you have the following case: The lithological prognosis for this well contains the following formations: Salt rocks, Anhydrite, limestone, gypsum and shale. And are planning to run and cement different sizes of casing. Explain and analyse the best drilling mud programme with the required additives to optimize and plan the best drilling mud programme for drilling this well at the lowest cost.
