Mechanism of Borehole Stability in Fractured Formation With Discrete Fracture Network
Energy Science & EngineeringDue to the high degree of rock block dispersion and the extensive development of natural fractures in the fractured formation, the drilling fluid loss and wellbore instability accidents occur frequently during the drilling process.

Experimental Study of Wellbore Instability in Clays [PDF]
Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2011 This paper presents the results of an extensive program of laboratory model wellbore tests that have been performed to study wellbore instability in saturated clays. The tests were conducted on resedimented Boston blue clay (RBBC) anisotropically consolidated to vertical effective stresses up to 10Â MPa by using two custom-built thick-walled cylinder ...

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