Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to give a theoretical and practical introduction to seismic-while-drilling by using the drill-bit noise. This recent technology offers important products for geophysical control of drilling. It involves aspects typical of borehole seismics and of the drilling control surveying, hitherto the sole domain of mudlogging. For aspects related to the drill-bit source performance and borehole acoustics, the book attempts to provide a connection between experts working in geophysics and in drilling. There are different ways of thinking related to basic knowledge, operational procedures and precision in the observation of the physical quantities. The goal of the book is to help "build a bridge" between geophysicists involved in seismic while drilling - who may need to familiarize themselves with methods and procedures of drilling and drilling-rock mechanics - and drillers involved in geosteering and drilling of "smart wells" - who may have to familiarize themselves with seismic signals, wave resolution and radiation. For instance, an argument of common interest for drilling and seismic while drilling studies is the monitoring of the drill-string and bit vibrations. This volume contains a large number of real examples of SWD data analysis and applications.
Download or read book Data Analytics for Drilling Engineering written by Qilong Xue and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-30 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the signal processing and data mining challenges encountered in drilling engineering, and describes the methods used to overcome them. In drilling engineering, many signal processing technologies are required to solve practical problems, such as downhole information transmission, spatial attitude of drillstring, drillstring dynamics, seismic activity while drilling, among others. This title attempts to bridge the gap between the signal processing and data mining and oil and gas drilling engineering communities. There is an urgent need to summarize signal processing and data mining issues in drilling engineering so that practitioners in these fields can understand each other in order to enhance oil and gas drilling functions. In summary, this book shows the importance of signal processing and data mining to researchers and professional drilling engineers and open up a new area of application for signal processing and data mining scientists.

Download or read book Exploration and Production of Oceanic Natural Gas Hydrate written by Michael D. Max and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition provides extensive information on the attributes of the Natural Gas Hydrate (NGH) system, highlighting opportunities for the innovative use and modification of existing technologies, as well as new approaches and technologies that have the potential to dramatically lower the cost of NGH exploration and production. Above all, the book compares the physical, environmental, and commercial aspects of the NGH system with those of other gas resources. It subsequently argues and demonstrates that natural gas can provide the least expensive energy during the transition to, and possibly within, a renewable energy future, and that NGH poses the lowest environmental risk of all gas resources. Intended as a non-mathematical, descriptive text that should be understandable to non-specialists as well as to engineers concerned with the physical characteristics of NGH reservoirs and their production, the book is written for readers at the university graduate level. It offers a valuable reference guide for environmentalists and the energy community, and includes discussions that will be of great interest to energy industry professionals, legislators, administrators, regulators, and all those concerned with energy options and their respective advantages and disadvantages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firm-to-firm relationships, along with the overall structure of industry, have changed markedly over the past decades. Replacing the model of vertical integration with one of global business, firms have started to outsource more by using a wider global network. At the same time, they have begun to increase their control and coordination along the value chain to remain competitive, blurring the boundaries between companies. Understanding the nature of the firm and its role in coordinating the supply chain will help firms to better define global competitive strategies.. The challenges that lie ahead for global business render obsolete the traditional model of procuring each service without long-term supply chain management. Current trends suggest that in the future there will be even deeper supply chain integration in most industries. The Nature of the Firm in the Oil Industry aims to facilitate the understanding of ‘the firm’ via the analysis of the specific relationship between international oil companies, which are among the world’s biggest firms and which act as ‘core system integrators’, and the oil services companies, which help to find, extract, produce and distribute oil along the petroleum industry supply chain. This relationship serves as an example of deep integration by core system integrators and provides insights into the change in the nature of the firm in the era of modern globalization. Aimed at researchers and academics, The Nature of the Firm in the Oil Industry offers a thorough examination of this relationship in an effort to shed light on the nature of the firm, both in the oil industry and in global business today. It is a humble attempt to better understand the firm in a crucial industry.

Download or read book Seismic Attributes as the Framework for Data Integration Throughout the Oilfield Life Cycle written by Kurt J. Marfurt and published by SEG Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Useful attributes capture and quantify key components of the seismic amplitude and texture for subsequent integration with well log, microseismic, and production data through either interactive visualization or machine learning. Although both approaches can accelerate and facilitate the interpretation process, they can by no means replace the interpreter. Interpreter “grayware” includes the incorporation and validation of depositional, diagenetic, and tectonic deformation models, the integration of rock physics systematics, and the recognition of unanticipated opportunities and hazards. This book is written to accompany and complement the 2018 SEG Distinguished Instructor Short Course that provides a rapid overview of how 3D seismic attributes provide a framework for data integration over the life of the oil and gas field. Key concepts are illustrated by example, showing modern workflows based on interactive interpretation and display as well as those aided by machine learning.

Download or read book Determination of a suitable mud window under HM and THM coupled conditions in real time written by Xuan Luo and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study proposes solutions to determine a suitable mud pressure gradient window in real-time considering the HM- and THM-coupled effects. Six boundaries (FG, SFG, PPG, MHSG, RTFG and VSG) were employed to determine the mud pressure windows based on the failure mechanism of borehole wall. Models were developed to calculate the FG, SFG, and RTFG for different rocks under HM- and THM-coupled conditions. Sensitivity analyses were undertaken to categorize the input parameters into three groups, which were “must-have”, “high-sensitive” and “low-sensitive” groups. To carry out a mud pressure window calculation in real-time, the “must-have” and “high-sensitive” parameters should be determined from logging data. The existing and relevant methods and empirical equations for calculating the UCS, IFA and PPG using logging data were analyzed and evaluated. Three methods for computing Biot’s coefficient using logging data were developed. Two methods to estimate the horizontal in-situ stresses were also developed, one method was based on analyzing the breakout shape, and the other based on shear wave splitting. To investigate the thermal effects, a semi-analytical method was developed to simulate the depth-dependent temperature profiles in the annulus, tubing and surrounding rocks. Finally, two case studies were undertaken to verify the whole solutions of a suitable mud pressure window in real-time.
