Lost Circulation lost circulatiòn Consequences 1.Blowout In oil or gas well drilling, lost circulation occurs when drilling fluid, known commonly as "mud'' flows into one or more geological formations instead of returning up the annulus.
· Lost circulation is among the most common drilling problems. It can be started at shallow, unconsolidated formation and extend to the deep consolidated formation which can be fractured by inappropriate well design or drilling operations. The drilling fluids can flow freely into the shallow formations due the high level of permeability of this surface formations. ...

· Drilling fluid is a very important component to ensure smooth drilling process. Drilling fluid is developed and produced with many additives to fulfill its functions. One of the additives is lost circulation materials (LCMs) that will help to minimize or prevent fluid loss into the formation. This study aims to develop new LCM from agro-waste materials which are orange peel and sunflower seed ...
DIASEAL M® Lost Circulation Material. Diaseal M ® LCM is a highly effective, high-solids, high-fluid-loss lost circulation squeeze material. A solid plug is formed in the thief formation when water or oil is squeezed from the slurry. Diaseal M ® LCM creates a seal in the loss zone, not in the wellbore like conventional LCM.
Lost Circulation Solution for Severe to Total Losses LCP 2000® is a proven lost circulation solution that can be used as an additive to drilling, workover and completion fluids. This advanced LCM (lost circulation material) is designed to cure partial to total losses.
· Main Types Of Lost Circulation Material. In General, These are the most common Lost Circulation Material which is used in drilling oil and gas wells: Cedar fiber (wood fiber). Sawdust (wood fiber). Drilling paper (paper). Magma Fiber (mineral fiber). (coarse graphite). Calcium carbonate (fine, medium & coarse). Flake (cellophane).
Lost Circulation Material The final mud additive that may complicate cuttings sample evaluation is lost circulation material (LCM). This is, in fact, not one, but a variety of materials, added to the drilling fluid at times when fractures, caverns, or extremely large scale porosities in downhole formations steal drilling fluid from the borehole.

Innospec Oilfield Services is an industry leader in lost circulation solutions — offering a wide range of LCM systems, depending upon your situation. RediSeal In situations where fluid loss is isolated, remedial treatments such as hesitation squeezes use high-concentration lost circulation material (LCM) pills to seal fractures or micro fractures.
In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, techniques for predicting, classifying, preventing, and remedying drilling fluid circulation loss events are disclosed. Tools for gathering relevant data are disclosed, and techniques for interpreting the resultant data as giving rise to an actual or potential drilling fluid lost circulation event are also disclosed.
Failure to minimize lost circulation can greatly increase the cost of drilling, as well as the risk of well loss. The risk of drilling a well in areas known to contain potential zones of lost circulation such as fractured, cavernous, or high permeability formations is a key factor in making a decision to approve or cancel a drilling project.
· 1. Introduction Drilling fluid losses and problems associated with lost circulation while drilling represent a major expense in drilling oil and gas wells. By industry estimates, more than 2 billion USD is spent annually to combat and mitigate lost circulation .
