Course Description
Through several activities, trainees perform an extensive wellbore stability analysis and apply it to drilling decisions with the goal of preventing wellbore failures. Included in this course is the introduction to applications that support generation of geomechanical wellbore analysis. JewelSuite WellCheck will be used primarily for performing wellbore stability analysis.
Topics include:
- Data requirement for building wellbore stability analysis
- Calibration of 1D geomechanical models using breakout and drilling induced fracture occurrence
- Determination of safe mud window to avoid kick, wellbore collapse, and tensile failure of the well
- Determination of the optimal casing depth for wellbore stability
- Evaluation of the optimal drilling directions using stereo-plots
- Sensitivity analysis plots for decision making
- Evaluation of bedding plane and temperature effects
- Quantitative risk assessment of geomechanical data input
