Entrained gas
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001307
Gas bubbles suspended within a liquid, such as drilling mud or completion fluid, that do not readily separate out. This condition reduces the effective density of the fluid and can lead to well control issues or inaccurate pressure readings. It is often measured in terms of volume percentage.
