I have Academic Research interest in Drilling Mud Engineering and the use of local materials in Drilling Mud Formulation and Beneficiation. Some of my scholarly research includes but not limited to:1. Empirical Research into the suitability of local clay for the formulation of water based drilling mud.2. Laboratory Study into the use of banana and plantain peel as a water based drilling mud pH control agent.3. Empirical Research into the use of Ginger starch as a water based drilling mud viscosifiers.4. Laboratory Study into the use of cow bone as suitable pH control agents.5. Research into the use and suitability of local rheological materials as water based drilling mud viscosifiers. "Research ideas aside God the Creator of the Universe rules the world" - Irabor Lily.
