Leakage-plugging while drilling and plugging agents

This paper describes a series of plugging agents which have been developed these years by the authors. The features of these agents can bestated as: (1) Stopping losses without stopping driling; (2) High ratio of success; (3) Improving fluids properties; (4) Suiting to many types of losses, even large cracks and caves; (5) Perfect efficiency in different conditions of pollution such as calcium, salt pollution and high temperature; (6) Sufficient resources of raw materials, no-poison, no-harm, no pollution to the environment; (7) Convenience in use; (8) Lower cost. The properties, mechanisms and applications of these agents are also described in this paper.
