Case Study Improvements in the Environmental Performance of Synthetic-Based Drilling Muds 

Once discharged to the ocean, dispersion of drilling muds occurs along with several other processes, including sedimentation, adsorption, and chemical and bacterial degradation [44]. Several new concepts in low-toxicity drilling muds have been developed over the last decade, such as the synthetic-based drilling
