In this paper, an artificial neural network model was developed to predict the downhole
density of oil-based muds under high-temperature, high-pressure conditions. Six …

As the oil-based drilling mud is widely used in the development of oil and gas in deep water,
how to model gas intrusion in the oil-based drilling mud accurately becomes a key issue for …

In deepwater wells, if gas comes into the riser, a rapid unloading event may occur if removal
of the gas is not carried out properly. Oil-based muds (OBMs) present an even greater …

The main objective of this paper is to use experimental measurements of downhole
pressure, temperature and initial mud density to predict downhole density using multigene …

Oilfield exploration in extreme areas represents additional requirements for drilling-fluid
performance and hydraulic models for well control. In general, there is little knowledge about …

Natural gas is easily soluble in oil-based muds (OBM), leading to complex flow behavior in
wellbores, especially in horizontal wells. In this study, a new transient flow model …

As hydrogen (H 2) conserves intermittent electricity from renewable energies, H 2-fueled
ships are overlooked for carbon emission reduction. H 2-fueled ships require offshore …

Kick occurrence is a possible event during a drilling process. It is required to be handled
immediately using a well control method to avoid blowout, financial losses and damages to …

Abstract Objectives/Scope Handling well control incidents during drilling operations safely
and efficiently is of crucial importance, due to the potential danger to crew, rig and …

The current study aims to provide the modern techniques to mathematically describe and
model a potentially disastrous event called" Kick". A kick might occur during oil and gas …
