Quantifying Parametric Influence on Cuttings Transport in Deviated Deep Wells Using Global Sensitivity Analysis Methods

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 1398-1415, March 2026.
Cuttings transport simulation workflow. ABSTRACT Efficient cuttings transport is essential for wellbore stability and minimizing non‐productive time in deviated and horizontal wells. This study applies global sensitivity analysis (GSA) to evaluate the influence of 14 drilling parameters on cuttings transport using WellPlanTM hydraulic simulations ...

The dual role of fracturing and elevation on the development of the weathering profile in mafic landscapes of the Andean tropics

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Eighteen boreholes in Colombia's Tropical Andes reveal elevation‐controlled Critical Zone architecture. Four‐layer weathering profiles with thick saprolite (≤48 m) form at high elevations (>1,100 m) where dense fracturing enhances permeability. Low‐elevation boreholes lack saprolite despite high fracture density, demonstrating fracturing's dual role as

Global Comparison of Aqueous Geochemistry and Dissolved H2/CH4 in Continental Low Temperature Serpentinization–Influenced Environments

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
Conceptual diagram of hydrological and geochemical processes within the Santa Elena Ophiolite, Costa Rica. It highlights watershed cross‐sections, soil genesis, hyperalkaline Type II waters (pH > 11.6) with calcite crust and trapped H2/CH4 gases, seepage into surface waters, storm‐impacted stream profiles, weathered vs.

Drilling Within the Critical Zone

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
This review synthesises 30 years of critical zone drilling methodologies for studying subsurface weathering, water storage, and biogeochemical processes. We evaluate drilling techniques, sampling strategies, downhole logging, and long‐term monitoring approaches while addressing contamination control and core preservation challenges.
