Due to their special properties, nanomaterials had potential application value, and they could play an essential role in improving mudcake quality, assisting in film-forming, reducing lost circulation, and enhancing wellbore stability. Some nanomaterials, such as nanocomposite filtration-reducing agent, nanocomposite viscosifier, nanosized emulsion lubricant, nanometer organoclay, and so on, were introduced, and all of them had significantly influence on the process of drilling operations. As a result, the application of nanomaterials in the field of drilling fluids are very useful for cleaning borehole, maintaining borehole stability, protecting reservoir, and enhancing oil and gas recovery. Finally, the further application of nanomaterials in drilling fluids is also prospected.
