Microfrac In-situ Stress Measurements for Drilling and Completion Design in Middle-Lower Cretaceous Reservoirs in a Giant Field of Abu Dhabi, UAE Offshore

Abstract: A pilot was drilled offshore Abu Dhabi aiming to determine the in-situ stress magnitudes. A time-dependent reactive shale formation separates Middle and Lower Cretaceous Limestone formations, leading to difficult open-hole logging conditions. Determining the stress regime and stress contrast across these formations is critical for assessing wellbore stability in extended-reach wells, setting casing shoe depths, and designing hydraulic fracturing in the tight reservoirs. Therefore, a comprehensive logging inclu… Show more
