Wellbore Stability Beyond Mud Weight

SPE Middle East Oil & Gas Show and Conference, 2021
Abstract Drilling oil and gas wells with stable and good quality wellbores is essential to minimize drilling difficulties, acquire reliable openhole logs data, run completions and ensure well integrity during stimulation. Stress-induced compressive rock failure leading to enlarged wellbore is a common form of wellbore instability ...

Horizontal Wellbore Stability for Open hole Completions

Proceedings of SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1989
Abstract Horizontal well drilling and production have been increasingly important to the oil industry in recent years. The potential of significant increase in oil or gas production from a horizontal well will be very attractive as drilling and completion costs diminish and new technologies are developed to address problems concerning ...

Thermoporoelastic Effect on Wellbore Stability

SPE Journal, 2005
SummaryThis paper presents the consistency of thermal effects (i.e., the thermal-induced pore pressure and rock stresses) between two available models for inclined boreholes. Thermal effects for both a permeable and an impermeable boundary are studied.

Automation in Wellbore Stability Workflows

SPE Intelligent Energy International, 2012
Abstract Wellbore instability accounts for a significant amount of nonproductive time. Continuous improvement of today's technologies enables real-time analysis of acquired data to identify and remediate potential drilling hazards. Efforts toward the automation of relevant steps and processes for real-time wellbore stability modeling ...

Pore Fluid and Wellbore Stabilities

Proceedings of International Meeting on Petroleum Engineering, 1992
Abstract A method for estimating the borehole pressure or mud weight, required for maintaining the stability of a deviated wellbore, is presented in this paper. The critical borehole pressure is calculated by incorporating elastic stresses on the hole surface into a failure criterion of the rock.

Uncertainty evaluation of wellbore stability model predictions

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2013
Abstract There is an increasing concern in the oil and gas industry regarding wellbore stability problems. The need to improve well operations becomes more imperative as the operators move towards more challenging and harsher environments such as ultra-deep waters and high-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) fields ...

Wellbore-Stability Analysis Made Easy and Practical

SPE Drilling & Completion, 1996
Summary Recent years have seen much scientific and technical progress in the understanding of wellbore stability. The main causes of instabilities have been identified, models have been developed, and practical remedies proposed and often tried successfully in the field. Yet despite this scientific effort, extra drilling costs associated
