Palm kernel shell is a byproducts from the palm oil milling process. The viability of using the palm kernel shell as a lost circulating agent will be studies. An initial study is carried out to determine the characterisation require, to combat lost circulation. Then further tests are carried out to evaluate the characteristics for lost circulation materials and the effect of palm kernel shell on the mud properties. The test results showed that palm kernel shell can be used as a lost circulation agent wirh better performance when compared to walnut shell. And the effect of palm kernel shell on the mud properties is negligible if the pericarp surrounding the hell is properly removed.
