Drilling
This paper presents a study of trapped-torque incidents during drillpipe connection, highlighting contributing factors and root causes and proposing prevention and mitigation measures for these transient events.
In this study, a method was developed to analyze the effects of drilling through transitions on bit-cutting structures and construct an ideal drilling strategy using a detailed drilling model.
This paper describes a machine-learning approach to accurately flag abnormal pressure losses and identify their root causes.
