Abstract
Producing environmentally safe secondary production based on drill cuttings, which can be used for reclamation of disturbed soils, well sites and construction of intra-field and temporary roads is an advanced and economically sound method of the drill cuttings processing. We carried out physical and mechanical tests to investigate deformation and strength properties of the samples of drill cuttings and mixtures based on them in order to evaluate worthiness of their use as a road-building material. The obtained results prove inability to use the drill cuttings directly as a road-building material. At this, in accordance with the research results, the mixtures based on drill cuttings can be used for road bed construction with carrying out the activities aimed at compaction of the foundation in order to improve strength and decrease soil settlement.
