Download or read book Advanced Drilling Engineering written by G. Robello Samuel and published by Gulf Publishing Company. This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drilling technology has advanced immensely in the past 20 years. Directional drilling, rotary steerable drilling and other smart downhole techniques and tools have progressed past the typical vertical and horizontal well, allowing drilling engineers to design wells of complex geometry and extract energy resources from remote, untapped places. While technology continues to excel, there is a growing need for multidisciplinary information to assist in the design and planning of complex wells. To answer this need, Robello Samuel, with the help of Xiushan Liu, releases a necessary reference titled Advanced Drilling Engineering. Samuel and Liu's volume covers full understanding of elaborate drilling processes and engineering well design aspects. Starting with well trajectory and wellbore positioning, they explain well-path planning for directional and extended-reach wells. Other vital topics include collision avoidance, checking for proximity between neighboring wells, downhole survey tools plus MWD/LWD and through bit logging, and intelligent smart well technology, including downhole monitoring tools.
Download or read book Advanced Well Completion Engineering written by Wan Renpu and published by Gulf Professional Publishing. This book was released on 2011-08-23 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once a natural gas or oil well is drilled, and it has been verified that commercially viable, it must be "completed" to allow for the flow of petroleum or natural gas out of the formation and up to the surface. This process includes: casing, pressure and temperature evaluation, and the proper instillation of equipment to ensure an efficient flow out of the well. In recent years, these processes have been greatly enhanced by new technologies. Advanced Well Completion Engineering summarizes and explains these advances while providing expert advice for deploying these new breakthrough engineering systems. The book has two themes: one, the idea of preventing damage, and preventing formation from drilling into an oil formation to putting the well introduction stage; and two, the utilization of nodal system analysis method, which optimizes the pressure distribution from reservoir to well head, and plays the sensitivity analysis to design the tubing diameters first and then the production casing size, so as to achieve whole system optimization. With this book, drilling and production engineers should be able to improve operational efficiency by applying the latest state of the art technology in all facets of well completion during development drilling-completion and work over operations. One of the only books devoted to the key technologies for all major aspects of advanced well completion activities. Unique coverage of all aspects of well completion activities based on 25 years in the exploration, production and completion industry. Matchless in-depth technical advice for achieving operational excellence with advance solutions.
Download or read book Advanced Drilling Solutions written by Yakov A. Gelfgat and published by Pennwell Books. This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume one of this two-volume set covers historical trends and two major aspects of drilling technologies: downhole motors and oil well drilling optimization (KTW - Key Technological Wells drilling method). Unlike the U.S. and other countries, which use rotary drilling, the Russians use downhole hydraulic and electrical motors that power the bit downhole. Using a downhole motor is more efficient, especially in hard formations. Advanced drilling studies have long been conducted in the FSU and are important in reducing drilling costs in marginal reservoirs. This technology is beginning to gain popularity in the U.S. and other countries. Key Features and Benefits: * Valuable Russian drilling techniques translated into English * An excellent historical account of the development of drilling technologies in the FSU * Includes mathematical models and rationale for the KTW drilling method

Download or read book Advanced Natural Gas Engineering written by Xiuli Wang and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-11-25 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Natural gas is playing an increasing role in meeting world energy demands because of its abundance, versatility, and its clean burning nature. As a result, lots of new gas exploration, field development and production activities are under way, especially in places where natural gas until recently was labeled as “stranded . Because a significant portion of natural gas reserves worldwide are located across bodies of water, gas transportation in the form of LNG or CNG becomes an issue as well. Finally natural gas is viewed in comparison to the recently touted alternatives. Therefore, there is a need to have a book covering all the unique aspects and challenges related to natural gas from the upstream to midstream and downstream. All these new issues have not been addressed in depth in any existing book. To bridge the gap, Xiuli Wang and Michael Economides have written a new book called Advanced Natural Gas Engineering. This book will serve as a reference for all engineers and professionals in the energy business. It can also be a textbook for students in petroleum and chemical engineering curricula and in training departments for a large group of companies.
