WBM is the most commonly used drilling fluid worldwide.There are two types of water - salt water and fresh water used as base composition for WBM.

Water-Based Mud Systems

• Freshwater Mud System
• Saltwater Mud System
• Polymer Mud Systems
• Inhibited Water-Based System

  WBM Advantages:

- Increases the viscosity of the mud which helps carry the rock cuttings to the surface.

- reduces water loss and prevents the wall from caving into the hole
