Effect of nanoparticles in drilling fluids on the transportation of different cutting sizes in a rotating horizontal pipe

Cutting transport is difficult in horizontal borehole regions due to the limited axial velocity distribution. This causes transported cuttings to gravitate to the bottom, generating cutting beds and leading to drilling mishaps. Water-based mud (WBM) that includes nanoparticles (NPs) to determine the...
