Through drilling wells
All drilling oil wells run with fluids, some with oil base mud, some water base mud depending on different condition. To save cost on recycling drilling mud, operator will need solids control system.
A drilling engineer is responsible for the plans and costs associated with drilling gas and oil wells. They also help develop and supervise the operations.
