n: in drilling engineering, the pulpy material that the grain of shape range from 1 to 74mm is called insert solid.

n: the liquid circulated through the wellbore during rotary drilling and workover operations. In addition to its function of bringing cuttings to the surface, drilling moo cools and lubricates the bit and the drill stem, protects against blowouts by holding back subsurface pressures, and deposits a mud cake on the wall of the borehole to prevent loss of fluids to the formation. Although it originally was a suspension of earth solids (especially clays) in water, the mud used in modem drilling operations is a more complex, three-phase mixture of liquids, reactive solids, and inert solids. The liquid phase may be fresh water, diesel oil, or crude oil and may contain one or more conditioners. See drilling fluid.

n: common term for drilling fluid.

drilling mud. Usually a slurry of weighting and fluid-loss control solids in a liquid.
