Information transmission is an important part of the wellbore trajectory automatic control system. Combined with the characteristics of the guided drilling system, drilling fluid pulse is selected as a tool for trajectory control. Negative pulse transmission of drilling fluid is one of the key technologies to realize wellbore trajectory automatic control. In this paper, the working principle of...

PURPOSE Bone drilling is a major part of orthopaedic surgery performed during the internal fixation of fractured bones. At present, information related to drilling force, drilling torque, rate of drill-bit penetration and drill-bit rotational speed is not available to orthopaedic surgeons, clinicians and researchers as bone drilling is performed manually. METHODS This study demonstrates that ...

Laboratory experimental results of waterjet drilling have rarely been scaled up to the field scale. This article presents the scaling criteria for designing waterjet drilling laboratory experiments for simulating a given oilfield operation. Dimensional analysis is used to derive scaling groups for the waterjet drilling technique. The proposed scaling approach meets all important requirements of...

Pressure control drilling technology through the precise control of the entire wellbore annular pressure profile, the bottom of the pressure can always maintain the safety density window, so as to achieve the purpose of safe operation. In the drilling process, the use of conventional drilling technology for drilling operations, easily lead to well, overflow and other drilling accidents. In this...

Lost circulation is a common and complex downhole accident in the process of oil gas drilling. Traditional bridge plugging material has limitation poor adaptability to lost formations. Therefore, this study synthesized new self-healing improve success rate; specifically, hydrophobic association polymer lauryl methlacrylate-acrylamide-acrylic acid containing Fe3+ was modified via curdlan form co...

The selection criteria for multiphase boosting options remain somewhat subjective and are frequently influenced by the vendors’ data, which may mask potential limitations of this emerging technology. Existing literature on multiphase pumping tends to focus on a certain pump type for a specific field application, but does not provide more-generalized criteria for the selection of multiphase boos...

Friction drilling Process is a rotating conical tool to penetrate the work piece and create a bushing in a single step without generating chips. This work investigates the finite element modeling (FEM) of large plastic strain and high-temperature work-material deformation in friction drilling. The workmaterial deformation is very large, and both the tool and work piece temperatures are high in ...

With the development of different segments within drilling technology in last three decades, well has become possible harsh downhole conditions. The vertical provides access to oil and gas reserves located at a certain depth directly below wellsite, large number wells are required for exploitation hydrocarbons from spatially expanded deposits. However, borehole can deviate well, which means tha...

The challenges posed by elevated rock hardness, deficient drillability, excessive friction torque, and significant underpressure in extended−reach horizontal wells are the primary factors that contribute to low ROP (Rate of Penetration) limited reach during drilling operation. Reducing drag is one methods addressing aforementioned challenges. To augment pulse output characteristics oscillating ...
