Viscoelastic Suppression of Gravity-Driven Counterflow Instability

open access: yes, 2010
Attempts to achieve "top kill" of actively flowing oil wells by insertion of dense drilling "muds", i.e., slurries of dense minerals, from above will fail if the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in the gravity-driven counterflow produces turbulence that ...

Nonlinear Viscoelastic Compaction in Sedimentary Basins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the mathematical modelling of sediment compaction and porous media flow, the rheological behaviour of sediments is typically modelled in terms of a nonlinear relationship between effective pressure $p_e$ and porosity $\phi$, that is $p_e=p_e(\phi ...

Preparation and Properties of Reversible Emulsion Drilling Fluid Stabilized by Modified Nanocrystalline Cellulose

open access: yesMolecules
Reversible emulsion drilling fluids can concentrate the advantages of water-based drilling fluids and oil-based drilling fluids. Most of the existing reversible emulsion drilling fluid systems are surfactant-based emulsifier systems, which have the ...

Phase Field Failure Modeling: Brittle‐Ductile Dual‐Phase Microstructures under Compressive Loading

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The approach by Amor and the approach by Miehe and Zhang for asymmetric damage behavior in the phase field method for fracture are compared regarding their fitness for microcrack‐based failure modeling. The comparison is performed for the case of a dual‐phase microstructure with a brittle and a ductile constituent.

Bridging performances of lost circulation materials (LC-LUBE and mica) and their blending in 80/20 and 60/40 oil-based drilling fluids

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
In drilling wells, lost circulation, barite sagging, shale swelling, and formation damage are critical problems for the industry. These problems can be controlled by designing appropriate drilling fluids and lost circulation materials. In this study, the
