a precision sized micron particle material used for testing the solids stopping capability of filters.

n: a form of carbon characterised by a high absorptive and adsorptive capacity for gases, vapours, aIM1 colloidal solids.

n: the adhesion of a thin film of a gas or liquid to the surface of a solid. Liquid hydrocarbons are recovered from natural gas by passing the gas through activated charcoal, silica gel, or other solids, which extract the heavier hydrocarbons. Steam treatment of the solid removes the adsorbed hydrocarbons, which are then collected and re-condensed. The adsorption process is also used to remove water vapour from air or natural gas. Compare absorption.

n: A surface phenomenon exhibited by a solid (adsorbent) to hold or concentrate gases, liquids or dissolved substances(adsorptive) upon its surface, due to adhesion.

the attraction and holding of a layer of a chemical on the wall of a formation. Usually held by ionic charge or wetting preference.

n: a motor-driven paddle or blade used to mix the liquids and solids in drilling mud.

n: A mechanically driven impeller used to stir the drilling fluid to assist in the suspension of solids, blending of additives, and maintenance of uniform consistency.

n: the rate at which mud is travelling in the annular space of a drilling well.

n: The linear velocity of a fluid passing through an annular space. The term critical annular velocity is often used to describe the flow rate or velocity at which entrained solids will be efficiently transported by the annular fluid. If the fluid velocity f

the velocity of fluids flowing in the annulus. Important in clean-up and displacement processes.

n: a cylindrical steel bar (similar to the handle or bail of a bucket, only much larger) that supports the swivel and connects it to the hook. Sometimes, the two cylindrical bars that support the elevators and attach them to the hook are called bails or links. v: to recover bottomhole fluids, samples, or drill cuttings by lowering a cylindrical vessel called a bailer to the bottom of a well, filling it, and retrieving it.

n: A rounded steel bar that supports the swivel and connects it to the hook. May also apply to the steel bars that connect the elevators to the hook (links).

remove solids or fluids from a well.

the solids and water entrained in crude oil.

n pi: a group of polymers that can maintain or increase the viscosity of bentonite while flocculating other clay solids in the mud. With bentonite extenders, desired viscosity can often be maintained using only half the amount of bentonite that would otherwise be required.

a flat bottom, short steel tool run on wireline to tag the surface of water or solids in the well. It is nearly the drift diameter of the tubular.

a tool that takes bottom hole samples of fluids or solids.
