CHROMIUM-FREE HALIDES DETERMINATION IN DRILLING FLUIDS

Abstract: apparatus for determining an amount of halide in a drilling fluid and methods of use. an example apparatus utilizes an analyzer configured to determine an amount of a halide precipitate in a substantially solids-free sample of a drilling fluid by measuring the amount of the precipitated halide produced upon contacting the substantially solids-free sample of drilling fluid with a cation. a solids removal device is configured to prepare the substantially solids-free sample by removing solids from a sample of the drilling fluid to produce the substantially solids-free sample fluid.
