Mud Densitas drill is one of the nature of mud which of $ital
importance" because the role of in direct corollation to mud function drill as

cause mud lose to formation (circulation lost" is if undersi)e will cause *

1.6 Dis$ussio!
Density of the mud is one of the parameters that need to be considered
when the drilling process" because this parameter will continue to change in
certain layers. @n this eperiment" the $alue of the density can be determined by
using a mud balance" with this tool we can easily determine the $alue of the
density of the $arious units" such as the obser$ation units are lbs , gal" g,cm4"
lbs , cuft" and lbs , SF. >he basic ingredients are bentonite mud while acting asballast is barite. @n this eperiment" density measurements were performed on
each sample has a different composition beda.ada mud obser$ations number 2
has the lowest density" due to the large $olume of diluent substance or water.
adalumpur increasing density changes due to the addition of barite mud can be
seen in the number 4" 6" and 8" the more the content of the barite mud will be
more se$ere in other words" the density will increase. @n the field conditions are
set so that the mud density may offset or withhold the pressure on the formation of high pressure. @f the mud pressure is lower than the formation pressure will allow
the blow out.
@n determining the le$el of sand on mud pemborandapat done using sand
content set" there are different le$els of $alue on the amount of sand that is
calculated by means of sand content sets and theoretical calculations" but the
difference is not &ust too big so it is not too problematic. Sand content calculation
is important because if the sludge contains a lot of sand then the circuit will drill
sand eroded due to friction so it does not last long.

1.7 Co!$&usio!
@n this eperiment it can be concluded that the density of the mud is a
parameter to be controlled in the process of drilling" mud density affect the mud
pressure" if the density is too low" it can blow out occurred. @f the density is too
high then the mud would be more difficult if the mud is circulated and too much
pressure on the producti$e formation pressures eceed the formation damage can
also occur due to filtration loss. Content of sand in the mud does not only affect
the density of the sand" but if the le$els are too large" there will be erosion on the
circuit drills.
