Zusammenfassung:Embodiments described herein generally relate to drilling fluids and more specifically relate to methods for treating drilling fluids. A method for treating a drilling fluid within a wellbore includes preparing a treatment fluid at an off-site location, where the treatment fluid contains at least a base fluid, an emulsifier, and a wetting agent. The method also includes transporting the treatment fluid from the off-site location to a drilling site containing the wellbore and adding the treatment fluid into the wellbore to combine with the drilling fluid and produce a treated drilling fluid.
