What is Aramco Interview Prep: Drilling Fluid Insights about?

We add water to high density muds to dilute them for the following reasons: 1. As additional solids are added to achieve a high density, they require more water to wet their increased surface area. This leaves less free water and causes viscosity to rise. 2. Colloidal particles with a large specific surface area bind up large amounts of water, depleting the free water. This leads to poor flow properties and gelation in high density muds. 3. Diluting high density muds with water improves their flow prope
