Abstract
Under different temperatures and pressures, the physical parameters of drilling fluid will change, resulting in inaccurate drilling hydraulic calculations. Aiming to address the problem of the traditional rheological prediction method needing to first determine the rheological model, this paper proposed a method for first predicting the readings of the rheometer and then determining the rheological model. The model established in this paper adopted a parameter-free method, which expands the application range of the model. Rheology experiments were carried out on the three types of oil-based drilling fluids collected at the well site. The model in this paper was verified based on the experimental data. The results showed that, compared with the traditional drilling fluid rheological prediction method, the model established in this paper had a better prediction effect, with an average error of 4.85%, and the average error reduction ranges from 3.8% to 8.3%. The model established in this paper is able to provide theoretical support for accurate hydraulic calculation.
