摘要
A method for determining drilling fluid density for stabilizing a wellbore including obtaining shale cuttings from a wellbore. In one embodiment of a method according to this invention, shale cuttings are obtained from a wellbore and their index properties, including but not limited to surface area, is measured; mean effective stress around the wellbore is calculated using the geostatic overburden in situ stress, the field pore pressure, and the total stress around the wellbore; the in situ shale strength is determined using a correlation between surface area, mean effective stress and shale strength; and drilling fluid density is determined using the shale strength. Methods for determining in situ shale strengths, elastic properties, pore pressures, and formation stresses of low permeability rocks.
