Theories and Technologies of Bionic Drilling Fluids covers the development and use of bionics in drilling fluids. The book considers technical challenges and upgrades to existing drilling fluid technology, presenting a case for the use of bionics in the petroleum industry alongside environmental protection. In response to the increasing need for novel technologies, the title includes insights on how nature-inspired technologies can be successfully developed to help researchers and technicians harness the power of bionics to solve practical challenges. This volume presents over a decade's worth of original research on bionic drilling fluids, offering scientists and engineers a comprehensive handbook. Drilling fluid has contributed to the safe, efficient and smooth implementation of drilling engineering for over a century. However, in recent years, oil and gas reserves have been discovered in difficult-to-access, extreme environments such as the deep ocean. Consequently, geological and ground conditions have become increasingly complex, posing a challenge to resource exploration and development. Bionics, the imitation of characteristics, structures, functions and principles from nature, offers a new approach to drilling fluid technology. - Highlights the environmental aspects of bionics in drilling fluids - Offers a concise and clear guide to new theories and technologies in bionic drilling fluids - Combines over a decade of original research with practical experience in petroleum extraction and development - Provides efficient and low-cost technical means for solving drilling fluid-related technical problems - Presents techniques already used by over 35 oil and gas fields, and in 12 countries around the world

Dr. Guancheng graduated from Southwest Petroleum University with a Bachelor of Engineering in 1987, and later completed a Master of Engineering in Applied Chemistry from China University of Petroleum in 1993. He also obtained a Doctor of Science in Marine Chemistry from Ocean University of China in 2005. He has been involved in scientific research and teaching petroleum engineering with research interest in reservoir physics, oil-gas field chemistry and reservoir protection. He has been awarded with at least 30 awards including two People's Republic of China Scientific and Technological Progress Awards.
