Wellbore Stability and the Thermal Effects Analysis for a North Sea Exploration Well

open access: yes, 2015
A good understanding the wellbore stability process is crucial for a safe and effective drilling of deep wells, wellbore instability is one of the key problems that engineers encounter during drilling.

Stability modelling applied to wellbore design

open access: yes, 2008
When a well is drilled in a hydrocarbon reservoir, the thermodynamic equilibrium of virgin rocks is altered, the natural stresses are redistributed, and a stress concentration occurs around the hole.
