AIR AND GAS DRILLING FIELD GUIDE

Have a look in the new edition of the book describing the fundamental simulation models developed for the deep-well drilling utilizing the gas/air drilling fluids, including the two-phase drilling fluids plus the stable foam-based drilling fluids. Approximately one third of the wells are drilled using the air/gas drilling fluids, according to the information obtained from the US Dept of Energy Estimates.

The models that are included into this volume shall be used as the basis for the development of the systematic methods of planning the underbalanced drilling operations on the different deep wells and also for conducting the correct monitoring of the subject operations and the relevant construction projects. The document contains a good discussion of the main applications of these drilling fluids including the applications to the geo-technical industry. The discussion also touches the critically important well construction/completion matters.

The original objective was to provide the industry participants with the correct and useful technical info directly relating to the cost management control in the field of drilling and also well construction. This document contains numerous fundamental simulation equations supplemented with the examples for various drilling models and other relevant data...
