This part of ISO 10414 provides standard procedures for determining the following characteristics of water based drilling fluids:
  • drilling fluid density (mud weight);
  • viscosity and gel strength;
  • filtration;
  • water, oil and solids contents;
  • sand content;
  • methylene blue capacity;
  • pH;
  • alkalinity and lime content;
  • chloride content;
  • total hardness as calcium.
Annexes A through K provide additional test methods.This edition of API 13B-1 is the identical national adoption of ISO 10414-1:2008, Petroleum and natural gas industries-Field testing of drilling fluids-Part 1: Water based fluids.
