Talk:Mud engineer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

with reference to the paragraph labeled "the job";i would say this is not representative of the complete responsibilties of the Mud engineer.this may be indicative a mud engineer on a simple land rig well, but on an offsore drilling rig, drilling a complicated well the mud engineers mandate far exceeds the description provided

I agree with the guy above, the person who wrote this as much as they knew about mud and mud engineering knew far too little about it to write a complete document about this particular field, being a mud engineer myself I of all should know. Ohh and Mud is a non-newtonian fluid there is no usually,the point at which it no longer is a non-newtonian fluid it is water since water is not affected by shear stress or shear rate the things vital in finding "non newtonian" fluids. Just a bit of info for those of you out there. Ohhh and the Mud's #1 job and most important is not cleaning and cooling the bit it is Well Control something not even said in this piece, who cares how well it cleans and cools if the well is blowing out. Someone with some real experience should have written this piece. Thanks for reading I will stop my rant now.

Well you can always fix it yourself... TastyCakes (talk) 20:40, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
