摘要: A method to control drilling fluid properties, including: circulating a through wellbore form suspension of drilled solids in the fluid; and separating separator particulate fraction an effluent, wherein includes at least portion effluent fluid. The may include particulates having minimum particle size 100 microns or greater, micronized weighting agent d90 10 less.
