MDT Forte tool for HPHT conditions.
Temperature rating: 177 deg C
Pressure rating 25,000 psi
GSPC discovery in KG Basin

The institute of Petroleum: Well control during the drilling and Testing of high
pressure offshore wells (part 17)
SEDCO 407 HPHT manual, mallard development
appropriate rheological model on the basis of fitting curve to data from HPHT
viscometer test.
Continuous model validation is needed. As same fluid w.r.t. can change
its behavior. To predict accurate properties, one should keep on
checking which rheological model is best suitable at that time.
Disadvantages mask the gas kick as in oil base mud, gas is soluble
and thermal expansion is higher compare to water based mud so lead
to pressurization of annulus.
