3D Mechanical Earth Modeling and Risk Assessment For Optimum Selection Of Mud Weight In Zubair Oil Field.

ABSTRACT Wellbore stability in Zubair oil field is the main problem during drilling operations, particularly in highly deviated and horizontal wells. The instability of the wellbore causes several problems included (poor hole cleaning, tight hole, stuck pipe, lost circulation, bad cementing, and well kick or blowout). This is increasing the Non Productive time (NPT), thus, […]

Integrated 3D Mechanical Earth Modelling to Intensively Investigate the Wellbore Instability of Zubair Oil Field, Southern Iraq

Abstract Wellbore instability in the Zubair oil field is the main problem in drilling operations. This instability of the wellbore causes several problems including poor hole cleaning, tight hole, stuck pipe, lost circulation, bad cementing, and well kick or blowout that lead to an increase in the nonproductive time. This article aims to set up […]
