Wellbore instability problems cause nonproductive time, especially during drilling operations
in the shale formations. These problems include stuck pipe, caving, lost circulation, and the …

A reservoir geomechanical modeling has been attempted in the hydrocarbon-bearing
Miocene formations in the offshore Badri field, Gulf of Suez, Egypt. Pore pressure …

This work attempted to understand the behavior of the Upper Cretaceous Nezzazat and
Lower Cretaceous–Carboniferous Nubia sandstone reservoirs in response to production …

Elastic parameters play a key role in managing the drilling and production operations.
Determination of the elastic parameters is very important to avoid the hazards associated …

In many mining, civil, and petroleum engineering applications diamond bit drilling is widely
used due to high penetration rate, core recovery and its ability to drill with less deviation …

Static Poisson's ratio (ν static) is a key factor in determine the in-situ stresses in the reservoir
section. ν static is used to calculate the minimum horizontal stress which will affect the …

Estimation of rock mechanic parameters is an important issue in reservoir management.
Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and elastic modulus are the most important factors in …

In this study, we used artificial neural networks (ANN) to estimate static Young's modulus
(Estatic) for sandstone formation from conventional well logs. ANN design parameters were …

The state of the economy today highlights the requirement for better engineering designs in
drilling, well completion, and reservoir production processes. Continuous profiles of rock …

Abstract Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) is considered as one of the most important
parameters in designing rock structures. Determination of this parameter requires …
