Torque and Drag Modeling for Horizontal Openhole Completions

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2005
Proposal Since horizontal openhole sections are now being drilled to lengths that exceed 20,000 ft, placement of the completion string (CS) to planned total depth (TD) may not be possible under a proposed drilling plan. During the early years of horizontal-well construction, the hanging weight of the completion string was usually ...

A rotational rheometer with a drag‐cup torque transducer

Journal of Polymer Science: Polymer Physics Edition, 1975
AbstractA rotational cone‐and‐plate rheometer incorporating a drag‐cup torque transducer and a frictionless, wire suspension has been designed and constructed. The instrument design provides for a controlled atmosphere for the sample, including anhydrous conditions necessary for studies on solutions of polymers in strong acids.

Aeration in Lubrication With Application to Drag Torque Reduction

Journal of Tribology, 2011
The aeration of an oil film flowing between the faces of two closely spaced circular plates (one stationary, and one rotating) is examined experimentally, numerically, and with an improved lubrication model. The gap between the plates is small compared to their radii, making lubrication theory appropriate for modeling the flow.

Torque and Drag Modeling Advanced Techniques and Troubleshooting

SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 2012
Abstract Extreme torque and drag (T&D), especially when unplanned, is a primary limiter to the reach of horizontal and extended-reach wells. Many engineers use T&D software models without a thorough understanding of how the input affects the calculations in the program.

Calculation and Analysis on Drag Torque of the Wet Clutch

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2015
In order to study the drag torque characteristics of wet clutch, the drag torque with no groove friction plates and with radial groove friction plates were analysed separately, and the influence factors of the drag torque such as the lubricating oil temperature, the depth of the groove, the average gap between the friction plates were also discussed ...

Torque and Drag in Directional Wells-Prediction and Measurement

Journal of Petroleum Technology, 1984
Summary A computer model has been developed to predict drillstring torque and drag, and a versatile rotary torque meter has been built to use in calibrating the model. The principle of the predictive model is that torque and drag forces in a directional wellbore are primarily caused by sliding friction.

Designing Well Paths to Reduce Drag and Torque

SPE Drilling Engineering, 1987
Summary A deviated well with an undersection trajectory (i.e., a trajectory lying below the conventional tangent section and constantly building to target) can exhibit lower drag and torque than a conventional well geometry in certain circumstances. The influence of well geometry on drag and torque is discussed, making use of the results

Dynamic Torque and Drag Model Coupled With Transient Hydraulic

Volume 9: Offshore Geotechnics; Petroleum Technology, 2023
Abstract A drill-string is an extremely slender mechanical structure and consequently it can oscillate very easily. Drill-string vibrations during drilling operations is the source of many drilling dysfunctions such as decreased drilling performance, damage to downhole equipment, or formation instabilities.

Multiphase Drag Modeling for Prediction of the Drag Torque Characteristics in Disengaged Wet Clutches

SAE International Journal of Commercial Vehicles, 2014
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">The undesired Drag Torque (DT) which is developed due to the shearing of fluid film in between the disk and separator plate reduces the efficiency of a transmission and increases the fuel consumption of a car.
