Study on Opening Determining and Parameter Optimization of Booster Line for Deepwater Drilling

open access: yesShiyou jixie, 2021
During deepwater drilling, when drilling fluid returns from the casing annulus to the riser section, due to the sudden increase of the size of the riser section annulus, the velocity of the drilling fluid decreases and the cutting carrying efficiency ...

Zwitterionic Polymer P(AM-DMC-AMPS) as a Low-Molecular-Weight Encapsulator in Deepwater Drilling Fluid

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
In deepwater oil and gas drilling, the high-molecular-weight encapsulator aggravates the thickening of the drilling fluid at low temperatures. Therefore, it is hard to manage the downhole pressure, and drilling fluid loss occurs.

Study on Flow Regulation and Bottom Hole Pressure Control of RMR System under Normal Working Conditions

open access: yesShiyou jixie, 2022
For lack of deepwater drilling technology and theory, riseless mud recovery system(RMR)is difficult to meet practical requirements. Therefore, according to the double gradient drilling principle of RMR system, the control equation of bottom hole pressure

Analysis on Influential Factors of Well Temperature for Deepwater Drilling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Wellbore circulating temperature must be predicted accurately to prevent gas hydrate and safe well construction operations during deepwater drilling. A model for predicting wellbore temperature distribution in deep water wells during circulation has been

Characteristics of Gravity Flow Deposits in the Benin Basin (Benin) and Implications for Oil and Gas Exploration

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the underexplored Benin Basin features a narrow shelf and steep slope, which promoted the development of multi‐phase, stacked channel‐lobe complexes. These gravity flow deposits, further enhanced by bottom current reworking, reveal a significant undiscovered Upper Cretaceous stratigraphic play with considerable petroleum ...

THE VIOLENCE OF FULL COST RECOVERY: Financing Water Infrastructure, and the History and Future of Perpetual Crisis in Mombasa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Foregrounding the role of finance, this article examines the historical production and future trajectory of the urban water crisis in Mombasa. Drawing on archival research and contemporary fieldwork, it traces how principles of full cost recovery—institutionalized during the colonial period and later reworked through postcolonial ...
