Drilling with Induced Vibrations Improves ROP and Mitigates Stick/Slip in Vertical and Directional Wells

Abstract: For years drillers have been taught to mitigate all vibrations in the drillstring while drilling to maximize Rate of Penetration (ROP), limit bit damage, and extend bit life. While limiting lateral vibrations and stick/slip are proven ways to improve performance and maintain directional control, in recent years it has been conclusively proven in the field that inducing axial agitation with specialized downhole tools can significantly improve lateral reach. Currently, however, the benefits of downhole oscillati… Show more

“…The power section is made up of a positive displacement motor driver. The valve and bearing section is composed of an eccentric orifice, driven by the power section, and matched against a concentric orifice, thus generating a continuous wave of pressure pulse as the rotor turns when the drilled mud is pumped through the system [16]. These pressure pulses travel up into the Shock Tool.…”

“…These complicated phenomena cannot be entirely avoidable due to the unpredictable external forces acting on the drill-string and the Bit-Rock interactions in the bottom hole [5]. However, the use of dynamic analysis and control strategy allows to reduce the vibration related problems [6], to suggest new recommendations for drilling operations [7][8][9], for drill string design [10,11] and for control systems [12][13][14][15][16], which deliver economic benefits through a mix of lower costs and higher production.…”

“…Since the 1980s, more and more downhole rotary drilling has been utilized in directional wells due to many advantages, such as increasing the rate of mechanical drilling, increasing the footage of a single drill bit, and achieving well path control. However, the friction between the drill string and the borehole wall is large because of the large inclination angle of the well, which is resulting in low drilling rate (ROP), drilling tool wear and tear, and wellbore instability (Abdo and Al-Sharji 2014;Clausen et al 2014;Martinez et al 2013). In order to enhance the extending ability of directional wells and maximize the productivity of oil reservoirs, the problem of reducing friction torque has become the focus of research in the oil field.…”
