Development of a standardized reference sediment to improve the usefulness of marine benthic toxicity testing as a regulatory tool

Acute benthic toxicity tests can be a useful tool for screening nonaqueous base fluids used in drilling fluids. These toxicity tests were originally designed to evaluate dredged spoil, and were adapted and introduced as a standard benthic test, using field sediments for approval of nonaqueous drilli...
