WELLBORE INSTABILITY: CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES [PDF]

open access: yesRudarsko-geološko-naftni Zbornik, 2007
Wellbore instability is one of the main problems that engineers meet during drilling. The causes of wellbore instability are often classified into either mechanical (for example, failure of the rock around the hole because of high stresses, low rock ...

Integrated 3D Mechanical Earth Modelling to Intensively Investigate the Wellbore Instability of Zubair Oil Field, Southern Iraq

open access: yesIraqi Geological Journal, 2021
Wellbore instability in the Zubair oil field is the main problem in drilling operations. This instability of the wellbore causes several problems including poor hole cleaning, tight hole, stuck pipe, lost circulation, bad cementing, and well kick or ...

Analysis of Wellbore Stability considering the Interaction between Fluid and Shale

open access: yesGeofluids, 2023
Reservoir shale has the characteristics of bedding planes, strong anisotropy, and strong imbibition ability under ultralow water saturation, which has an important impact on wellbore stability of horizontal wells.

Assessment of Chemical Effects on Wellbore Stability in Transition Shale Formation

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
Substantial research has been conducted on the mechanisms responsible for the wellbore collapse in shale formations. For chemically active soft shale formations, pore pressure and stress change due to osmotic pressure and hydration swelling are usually ...

Analysis of Anisotropic Strength and Wellbore Unstable Zone in Shale Formation Relating to Water Content

open access: yesGeofluids, 2023
During oil and gas exploitation, wellbore stability has always been the focus of many scholars. Instability of wellbore will lead to washouts, breakout, stuck pipe, mud loss, and so on, even the abandon of the well.

An integrated wellbore stability study to mitigate expensive wellbore instability problems while drilling into Zubair shale/sand sequence, southern Iraq [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
”The Zubair Formation is the most prolific reservoir in Iraq, which is comprised of sandstones interbedded with shale sequences. Due to the weak nature of the shale sequence, the instability of a wellbore is one of the most critical challenges that ...
