Study on the influence of drilling fluid filtration on stability of coalbed wellbore
Coal rock has many porous characteristics, such as cleavage, pore and so on. Drilling fluid is easy to invade into coal bed rock, which is easy to cause wellbore instability.

Unstable Drainage Dynamics During Multiphase Flow Across Capillary Heterogeneities
Abstract We use novel, fast 4D Synchrotron X‐ray imaging with large field‐of‐view to reveal pore‐ and macro‐scale drainage dynamics during gas–brine flow through a layered sandstone rock sample. We show that a single centimeter‐scale layer, similar in pore size distribution to the surrounding rock but with reduced connectivity, temporarily inhibits ...

Thermo-mechanical analysis of wellbore stability in ultra-deep formations
Wellbore stability is crucial for ultra-deep wells operating under high temperature and high stress conditions. To analyze the effects of thermal shock and horizontal stress on wellbore stability, a series of true triaxial compression experiments and ...

Large‐Scale Hydrogen Storage: Surface and Subsurface Challenges
This review examines underground hydrogen storage with emphasis on the interaction between surface facilities and subsurface reservoirs. Variable renewable hydrogen requires compression, buffering, and purification before injection, while subsurface processes influence wellhead pressure, temperature, and composition.

The present study uses the Modified Mohr‐Coulomb true‐triaxial failure criterion (MMC_TT), which predicts the strength of rock better than the MGC criterion in laboratory true‐triaxial tests to overcome the limitations. Moreover, based on the data from previously published five vertical wells in the Krishna‐Godavari basin (K‐G basin), an empirical ...

This study investigates the coupled thermo‐mechanical behavior of granite during heating and cooling through a combination of laboratory tests and finite element analysis. The thermal conductivity, mineral composition, mass loss rate, micro‐crack observation, and thermal fracture characteristics of granite under various temperature conditions are ...

Cuttings transport simulation workflow. ABSTRACT Efficient cuttings transport is essential for wellbore stability and minimizing non‐productive time in deviated and horizontal wells. This study applies global sensitivity analysis (GSA) to evaluate the influence of 14 drilling parameters on cuttings transport using WellPlanTM hydraulic simulations ...
