Assessment of zonal isolation risk to changes in design parameters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Well Containment Screening Tool (WCST) focuses on well integrity evaluation after well control incident. The WCST favors a greater wall thickness and, hence, a narrower cementing annulus, potentially increasing the risk of cement loss.

Interactions between Molten High‐Silicon Electrical Steels and Carbon‐Bonded MgO Refractories Based on Recyclates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines how several molten high‐silicon electrical steels interact with both conventional and recycled MgO–C refractories. For this, various immersion experiments are conducted. In addition to infiltration, a number of mechanisms are identified and explained that control the corrosion of the refractory material.

Enhancing the benefit of slide steering drilling systems in horizontal wells of unconventional reservoirs

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2023
The slide steering drilling system consisting of a bent positive displacement motor (PDM) and measurement while drilling (MWD) system is widely used to continuously implement all wellpath control operations by alternately applying the slide and compound ...

A Robust Method for Drilling Monitoring using Acoustic Emission [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Acoustic Emission (AE) is considered an efficient tool for monitoring of machining operations, for both tool condition and working piece integrity. However, the use of AE is more challenging in case of drilling, due to heavy dependence of AE signals to ...

Can Ti‐Based MXenes Serve as Solid Lubricants for Brake Applications? A Tribological Study

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the first implementation of Ti‐based MXenes materials in brake pad friction composite material. The resulting composite material exhibits a 48% reduction in the wear rate; alongside significant improvements are observed for thermal and mechanical properties.

Interaction between Molten Al‐Killed Mn–B Steel and Carbon‐Bonded MgO Refractories Based on Recyclates

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐temperature interactions between low‐sulfur Al‐killed Mn–B steel and MgO–C refractories (0 and 50 wt% recyclates) are studied via finger immersion tests (1600 °C). Surface‐active elements influence infiltration. MgO/CaS layer forms, along with spinel and calcium silicate.

Application of rotary geosteering drilling in deep and thin reservoirs of Tarim Basin, NW China

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2013
Geological features, such as deep and thin reservoirs and unstable structure margin, occur in an oilfield of the Tarim Basin. To deal with these problems while drilling, a rotary geosteering drilling technique was introduced.

Experimental Investigation on the Energy Consumption Difference between the Dynamic Impact and the Drilling Tests of Rocks

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2022
The split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) technique and various drilling tests were performed on three types of lithologies (granite and cyan and red sandstone) to understand the variation in energy consumption (EC) of the different methods used for rock ...
