Volatile markets and harsh locations and downhole conditions pose severe challenges for
ensuring safe and long-lasting intact well conditions. Well integrity is a crucial issue in the …

This paper focus on factors attributing to casing failure, their failure mechanism and the
resulting failure mode. The casing is a critical component in a well and the main mechanical …

A purpose-built finite-element model (FEM) is applied to simulate radial displacement of a
casing string constrained within an outer wellbore. The FEM represents a fully stiff-string …

There are generally three types of connections used in intermediate or production casing of
thermal wells: API (American Petroleum Institute) round, API buttress and proprietary …

The integrity of perforated liners is crucial in geothermal production wells and this should be
well designed according to correct standards. The available geothermal standards, such as …

Abstract Objectives/Scope: Since its accidental discovery in Venezuela during a steamflood
procedure, and despite the high costs associated with using steam. CSS has been widely …

Steam huff and puff is the main production mode of heavy oil, but the casing damage
problems during the cyclic thermal injection process are very serious. The casing damage of …

Reservoir management in fields with geomechanical issues such as subsidence and
dilation due to injection and production activities is challenging where it is crucial to prevent …

This paper focus on factors attributing to casing failure, their failure mechanism and the
resulting failure mode. The casing is a critical component in a well and the main mechanical …

This paper describes a reliability based study of OCTG connections and casing for thermal
wells. The fundamental principle of structural reliability analysis is being used to model the …
