When the conventional method of predicting borehole stability is applied to the preliminary prospecting wells, the precision of prediction is often affected severely by the lack of data, limit of applying conditions, error of calculated parameters and ...

Borehole stability in densely welded tuffs [PDF]
The stability of boreholes, or more generally of underground openings (i.e. including shafts, ramps, drifts, tunnels, etc.) at locations where seals or plugs are to be placed is an important consideration in seal design for a repository (Juhlin and Sandstedt, 1989).

Should the structure have been underpinned? - reflection after a quarter of a century [PDF]
A case study of a domestic structure that suffered damage as a result of foundation movement in the 1970s is examined. Conclusions and recommendations made at the time are re-visited in the light of limitations of the original site investigation and ...

ABOUT USING THE GEOPHYSICAL STUDY METHODS TO PREVENT DRILLING PROBLEMS
The methods of geophysical survey used for prevention of complications in terms of stability of well borehole when drilling are considered. It is shown that application of the borehole survey complex, including section gage logging, borehole acoustic TV (

Characterization of Shale-Drilling Fluid Interaction Mechanisms Related to Wellbore Instability
Wellbore stability problems tend to occur during the drilling phase in shale sections, hence the understanding of shale-drilling fluid interaction mechanisms is essential if wellbore instability is to be avoided when drilling through shale sections.

Study of the plasma flow interaction with the borehole surface in the process of its thermal reaming [PDF]
Purpose. Study of the plasma flow interaction with the borehole surface in the process of its thermal reaming for determination of transient temperature distribution along the borehole surface and the average coefficient of heat transfer from the plasma ...
