The Mantra for choice of Specialty Chemicals
Use Inflow Performance Relationships (IPR) with
respect to introduced Technology/ Specialty
chemicals to determine the Applied Technology/
Specialty Chemicals ability to raise the
Productivity Index(PI).

Example 1 Inflow Performance Relationships (IPR)

Type of Drilling Fluid Systems Cost Rs (Lacs) Likely Productivity Barrels/day
1. Conventional lt10 100 (Base case)
2. Polymer 10-25 110-130
3. Non-Damaging 25-50 130-150
4. Sub-Hydrostatic (HGS) 100-300 150-200
