Effect on Fracture Pressure by Adding Iron Based and Calcium Based Nanoparticles to a Nonaqueous Drilling Fluid for Permeable Formations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive experimental evaluation to investigate the effects of adding ironbased and calciumbased nanoparticles (NPs) to nonaqueous drilling fluids (NAFs) as a fluid loss additive and for wellbore ...
Stability Analysis of Highly Deviated Boreholes to Minimize Drilling Risks and Nonproductive Time
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Lower Cretaceous Zubair Formation is a regionally extended gas- and oil-producing sandstone sequence in Southern Iraq. Due to the weak nature of the Zubair Formation, the lack of wellbore stability is one of the most ...
Drilling Rate of Penetration Prediction of High-Angled Wells Using Artificial Neural Networks
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Predicting the rate of penetration (ROP) is a significant factor in drilling optimization and minimizing expensive drilling costs. However, due to the geological uncertainty and many uncontrolled operational parameters ...
