Evaluation of suitability of oil well drill cuttings for road making
Process of drilling oil and gas wells generates large volumes of drill cuttings and spent muds. These drill cuttings contain hydrocarbons, salts, metals, soaps and other agents that have been added to drilling fluid to assist in drilling and hydrocarbon recovery processes or that has become mixed with drilling fluid from the formation. This study presents that oil drill cuttings waste can be a very good construction material for sub-grade preparation of roads 5 without causing any toxic effects on natural soil/ ground water etc. Use of drill cuttings for sub-grade construction will reduce pavement thickness and thus cost of construction will also be less. Estimation of heavy/toxic metals in cutting lechates is evaluated.
