Abstract

The invention provides brine based well drilling and servicing fluids which exhibit relatively thermally stable rheological and filtration characteristics. The fluids comprise a brine, an amorphous silica viscosifier, a biopolymer viscosifier, a fluid loss control additive, and a bridging agent. By utilizing both a silica viscosifier and a biopolymer viscosifier to provide the desired rheological characteristics, the fluids have enhanced thermal stability thus maintaining their suspension and hole cleaning properties over an extended temperature range.
