45 Drilling waste - what is it? Oily water Slop water (drilling slop) + Oily drill cuttings Both are classified as Hazardous waste + non-oily drill cuttings UiS & 45

46 Did specify why drilling fluids Now: What are drilling fluids? Aqueous Non aqueous WBM OBM Diesel SBM Water Based Mud Oil Based Mud Synthetic Based Mud 46

47 Water Based Mud BaSO4 Bentonite clay Polymers CaCO3 Salts Deflocculants: Lignosulfonate Viscosifier: WBM SW/FF/Brine Iron (III) oxides 47

48 Oil Based Mud Water Weighting agents Emulsifers Mineral oil or (diesel) Yellow & red chemicals 48

49 Environmental friendly WBM 1970 UK USA, Canada and Norway became concerned about discharging fluids 1990 Introduction of SBM (Synthetic) to replace OBM. OBM is bio-accumulating and toxic 1993 Against the law to release particles (cuttings) containing more than 1% oil. 49

50 Modern WBM Contains green chemicals and/or sea water Bioaccumulation Pose little or no risk to the environment Reduction of chemicals 99% the last 10 years 50

51 Regulations Water based (WB) drill cuttings may be discharged Oil based (OB) drill cuttings shall not be discharged The Barents sea 0-discharge area Permit is required for all discharges Permit is required for sub surface injection Regulations for handling and treating waste onshore different from offshore. Requirements in permits generally stricter offshore and may depend on location. UiS & 51

52 Why is still OBM used? Reservoirs with HTHP (High Temp and High Pres) cracks the polymers. Deeper wells. Used in the lower sections (17 ½, 12 ¼, 8 ½ ) High inclination on the well increase the chance on fracturing the well. Requires good well stability and efficiency When ROP (rate of penetration) > 50 degrees High recycle rate (70%, WBM 45%) Personnel safety on Norwegian continental Shelf is 1st priority 52

53 Drill cuttings 53 Oil based drill cuttings separated from drilling fluid Most used separation technique - the «Shale shaker» (vibrating screens) 53

54 Is Oil Based Mud really that bad? Research have shown OBM discharges are killing species and reducing biodiversity due to reducing oxygen and clog the filter feeders Spawning grounds for fish are damaged by drilling discharge Norway has big coral reefs (Lophelia pertusa) 54

55 Summary: Drilling Fluid Properties/Functions 1) Control formation pressure 2) Stabilize wellbore 3) Transport drill solids to surface 4) Keep drill solids in suspension 5) Cool and lubricate drill string & bottom hole assembly (BHA) 6) Provide buoyancy to drill string and casing 7) Transfer hydraulic energy 8) Medium for wireline logging and logging while drilling 9) Minimize formation damage 10) Protect drillstring and casing against Corrosion UiS 55

56 Offshore drilling waste Disposal options Discharge to sea Injection sub surface (underground) Send to shore for treatment and disposal (landfill) Treat offshore discharge or send to shore Choice depends on location, type of drilling fluid, laws/regulations, cost Most operator adopt a best available technique (BAT) approach combined with risk assessment in order decide. UiS & 56

57 Discharge of cuttings, sand and solid particles Cuttings from drilling and well activities, sand and other solid particles shall not be discharged to sea if the content of formation oil, other oil or base fluid in organic drilling fluid exceeds ten grams per kilo of dry mass = 1 % The operator shall obtain a permit pursuant to Chapter 3 of the Pollution control Act to inject materials such as cuttings, sand and solid particles. UiS & 57

58 Drilling waste produced offshore Norway (tons) Year Total drilling waste to shore WB drill cuttings discharged OBM Cuttings Injected Increasing amount sent onshore due to problems associated with re-injection of drill cuttings Majority of the amount to shore split between 4-5 of the major bases along the coast of Norway. 58

59 Drill cuttings logistics 59 Rig to shore base Supply vessel using cuttings skips or dense phase transfer and larger bulk tanks. RUSSIA At Base Intermediate storage awaiting further transport Base to treatment site Normally by boat or truck. NORWAY SWEDEN FINLAND Empty containers or tanks needs to be cleaned and returned. Alternatively a dedicated cuttings boat may go directly to the treatment site. 59

60 Thermomechanical Cuttings Cleaner (TCC) High throughput performance. >99% base oil recovery No flashpoint or toxicity degradation <2% solids in recovered oil Three recoverable byproducts Base Oil Water Solids Eliminates ship to shore transportation of cuttings. Mobile unit allows for quick mobilization Overall reduction in HSE exposure 60

71 Drilling Slop Slop is usually a mix of rain water and wash water with the remains of discarded drilling, completion and similar fluids A typical rig produces 100 to 300 m3 every month 1000 m3 per month is not uncommon, depending on the operation Solids 10% Oil 10% Water 80% 71

72 Baroid Surface Solutions Offshore Slop Treatment Unit Challenge Closed rigs and drain system layouts Limited possibility of segregation of various types of slop. Rain water, and high usage of water for cleaning purposes, results in large volumes of slop. High cost for the operator Ship to Shore Onshore treatment Solution Treat waste at point of origin Less waste transported to shore 72

73 Continuous discharge monitoring Advanced sensors OIW EX 1000: UV-fluorescensce Continuous on-line monitoring of discharge water Easy to connect and easy to operate Data storage and transfer of records. Samples sent to lab for 3rd party verification on regular basis > 99% correlation to ISO
