Hybrid Solution Improves ROP and Borehole Quality in Challenging Large Diameter Holes

Abstract: In the prolific Burgan field, South East Kuwait, new well profiles are being employed which require the 16 inch hole section to be drilled deeper. This new well profile requires drilling through interbedded abrasive sandstones and sticky shale which were previously drilled in 12 ¼ inch hole size. Drilling becomes increasingly challenging using larger diameter bits where torque fluctuations, down-hole conditions and durability limit performance. As the casing profiles changed, each section's drilling solution w… Show more
