Beyond Viscosity: Applied Rheology for the Oil and Gas Industry

Join the collaborative workshop hosted by Anton Paar and The University of Texas Permian Basin Department of Mechanical Engineering.
This in-person workshop will explore how understanding rheological properties optimizes drilling, completion, and fracturing fluids for efficient hole cleaning, wellbore stability, and optimal proppant transport. We'll also delve into best practices and the crucial role in upstream flow assurance, addressing precipitate deposition, hydrate formation, and emulsion stability.

Key takeaways:

• Viscosity characterization: Analysis of fluid flow behavior under varying temperature, pressure, and shear conditions
• Viscoelasticity and performance: Assessment of emulsion stability, hole cleaning, and proppant transport through viscoelastic property evaluation
• Lubricity analysis: Tribological property measurement for characterizing fluid lubricity
• Powder flow analysis: Overview of techniques for characterizing powder flow in oil and gas applications
• Best practices: Practical guide for making effective, reproducible, and meaningful measurements

Who should attend: 

This workshop is designed for academic researchers, engineers, industry professionals, and university students interested in understanding the benefits of rheology for the gas and oil industry.

Workshop format:

This workshop will be delivered live by our rheology experts. Coffee breaks and lunch will be provided by Anton Paar USA.
