The wellbore stability of a vertical well through the sandstone reservoir layers of the Asmari
oil-bearing formation in south-west Iran is investigated. The safe drilling-fluid density range …

Wellbore stability analysis is a critical component of petroleum engineering, evaluating the
risks of sanding, reservoir compaction, and casing failures. Laboratory rock mechanical …

Sustaining wellbore stability in depleted reservoirs is a crucial concern. With production from
hydrocarbon reservoirs, the reservoir's pore pressure is reduced over time, and the reservoir …

One of the most important oil and gas drilling studies is wellbore stability analysis. The
purpose of this research is to investigate wellbore stability from a different perspective. To …

The challenges behind this research were encountered while drilling into the Ilam,
Mauddud, Gurpi, and Mishrif Formations, where severe drilling instability-related issues …

There have been interests to link different cuttings/cavings to various wellbore failure types
during drilling. This concept is essential when caliper and image logs are not available …

Borehole instability in the petroleum industry is mainly because of mechanical, chemical,
and thermal factors which result in substantial yearly expenditures. The essential part of …

Drilling through chemically-active shale formations is of special importance due to time-
dependent drilling fluid–shale interactions. The physical models presented so far include …

Wellbore instability has become an increasing concern for horizontal wells, especially with
the move towards using drilling innovations that the entire lateral sections are remained …

Methane hydrates (MHs) are popular clean energy resources. The dissociation of MHs near
the wellbore wall during drilling in marine methane hydrate-bearing sediments (MHBS) …
