By weight of water
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-000506
A concentration measurement for additives in drilling fluids, expressed as a percentage of the weight of the water component in the fluid. This method is particularly relevant for water-based drilling muds where water is the continuous phase. It provides a standardized way to dose additives relative to the primary liquid carrier.
