Explanation:
Me parece bien la respuesta de P. Forgas. Puedes ver la sgte entrada del glosario de Schlumberger para ver una definición:

gelled-up mud


1. n. [Drilling Fluids] 1947

A mud that is excessively viscous, having high gel strengths and high yield point. A gelled-up mud may not be pumpable without exceeding limits on pump pressure. Often caused by excessive solids content, especially colloidal solids, or, in the case of oil or synthetic muds, by low temperature.

Synonyms: gelled mud
See: colloidal solids, gel strength, progressive gels, shear-strength measurement test, yield point


Suerte!
