Full Fluid–Solid Cohesive Finite Element Model to Simulate Near Wellbore Fractures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents finiteelement simulation for hydraulic fracture's initiation, propagation, and sealing in the near wellbore region. A full fluid solid coupling module is developed by using pore pressure cohesive elements. ...
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 ...
An Analysis of Common Drill Stem Vibration Models
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Excessive drill stem (DS) vibration while rotary drilling of oil and gas wells causes damages to drill bits and bottom hole assemblies (BHAs). In an attempt to mitigate DS vibrations, theoretical modeling of DS dynamics ...
Techno-Economic Investigation of Geothermal Development in Sedimentary Basins
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Models of the enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) in super-hot igneous rocks have demonstrated significantly higher heat transfer rates and power production compared to conventional geothermal systems. On the other hand, ...
