01 05 07 Drilling fluids and wastes containing barite, other than those specified under codes 01 05 05 and 01 05 06
Drilling fluids are an integral part of the well drilling process, especially in the oil and gas industry. They perform several key functions, such as cooling the drilling tool, transporting mud to the surface, preventing blowouts, and maintaining wellbore stability. One of the components of drilling fluids is barite, which is used to increase the density of the fluid and ensure pressure control in the well. However, after drilling has been completed, significant volumes of waste containing barite remain that do not fall into the categories listed under codes 01 05 05 and 01 05 06. These wastes require special attention due to their potential harm to the environment and health. 39; I of people.
Methods of environmental management of waste drilling fluids and waste containing barite, other than those specified under codes 01 05 05 and 01 05 06, are complex and multifaceted. The problem is that drilling mud waste often contains heavy metals, chemical additives, and other harmful substances that can leach into soil and water sources. Over time, these pollutants accumulate, causing ecosystem degradation and drinking water contamination. In addition, the storage and transportation of these wastes can pose a significant threat due to possible leaks and accidents.
In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to develop and implement effective methods of ecological management of waste drilling fluids and waste containing barite. These methods should include operations to collect, sort, crush and treat (D13) waste, as well as ensure the safe transportation of this waste.

A pity for the environment and people
Drilling mud waste and waste containing barite can have a significant negative impact on the environment. One of the main sources of pollution is heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, mercury and others contained in drilling fluids. These metals can enter the soil and water sources, contaminating them and making them unusable.
Also, waste drilling fluids may contain chemical additives that are used to improve the properties of the fluid. These additives are often toxic and can cause the death of plants and animals, reducing biodiversity and disrupting ecosystems.
Another important aspect is air pollution. Evaporation of volatile organic compounds from drilling mud wastes can lead to smog formation and deterioration of air quality, which is especially dangerous for people with respiratory diseases.
Pity for people
The management of waste drilling fluids and wastes containing barite, other than those specified under codes 01 05 05 and 01 05 06, must take into account the potential harm to human health. Heavy metals and chemicals in waste can cause serious diseases, including cancer, damage to the nervous system, reproductive disorders and other serious health problems.
Constant contact with contaminated soil or water can cause chronic diseases and reduce people's quality of life. In addition, workers involved in the collection, transport and treatment of these wastes are at constant risk of poisoning and injury due to possible accidents and leaks.
Drilling fluids and waste containing barite, other than those listed under codes 01 05 05 and 01 05 06. Code according to the National List of Waste 01 05 07. Operations according to Appendices 1, 2 to the Law of Ukraine “On waste management” D13.
Ways to reduce harm
Methods of environmental management of waste drilling fluids and waste containing barite, other than those specified under codes 01 05 05 and 01 05 06, should include an integrated approach covering all stages of waste management. Among the effective measures, the following can be distinguished:
- development and implementation of safe waste collection and processing technologies;
- application of environmental monitoring and control systems in areas where waste is stored or transported;
- training and briefings for workers involved in hazardous waste management;
- use of specialized equipment and personal protective equipment to minimize risks when working with waste;
- cooperation with scientific and research institutions for the development of new methods of processing and neutralization of hazardous waste.
An important component of environmental management is also ensuring transparency and informing the public about the state of the environment and the measures taken to reduce harm from hazardous drilling fluid waste.
