Research on Global Drilling Fluid Technology Progress and Development Strategies for China Based on Patent Information
Based on the two patent database platforms,Incopat and Innography,this study uses patent information analysis methods to panoramically display the patent application trends,technical life cycle,origins and distribution of countries/regions,and major applicants in the global drilling fluid technology field.In-depth research is also conducted on the technical effect and key development routes of water-based,oil-based,and synthetic-based drilling fluids.The research results show that the global drilling fluid technology is in a mature stage,with a high number of patent applications currently and in the near future,indicating a promising development prospect but with a relatively high entry threshold.China and the United States are the leaders in the global drilling fluid technology field,with American companies performing more outstandingly.Enhancing wellbore stability,strengthening reservoir protection,and meeting environmental protection requirements are current focuses of drilling fluid technology research.The realization of intelligent and customized drilling fluids will become the future research goal of drilling fluid technology.Researchers and enterprises in our country should promptly follow up and synchronously occupy a favorable position in terms of technological innovation and patent layout.
