Download or read book Microtunneling and Horizontal Drilling written by French Society for Trenchless Technology (FSTT) and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-01-05 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book includes recommendations prepared by members of the French Society for Trenchless Technology (FSTT), based on their recent national multi-year project. Comprehensive guidelines, techniques and theories in the areas of both microtunneling and horizontal drilling are given, encompassing the fields of application for each method, what investigations should be undertaken, which machines and equipment should be used, how the work should be managed and potential problems that may arise. The recommendations, the analytical methods used and their verification with laboratory and field data should not only improve the rate of success of trenchless projects, but will also be of great value to engineers in other countries, who can compare the results with their own findings and assess the international state of the art.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drilling engineering is a challenging discipline in the oil patch. It goes beyond what is found in textbooks. The technological advances in the past two decades have been very significant. These advances have allowed the oil industry worldwide to economically and successfully exploit oil and gas fields that may have not been possible before. The fundamentals of fluid mechanics and solid mechanics, along with the basic scientific concepts of chemistry, form the basis of drilling engineering. The rewards and successes of drilling projects are predicated on the ability of the drilling engineer who fully understands all the engineering aspects and equipment required to drill a usable hole at the lowest dollar per foot, in vertical well drilling, or at the highest equivalent barrel of oil per foot in horizontal/multilateral well drilling. Horizontal Drilling Engineering book gives the fundamentals and field practices involved in horizontal drilling operations. Key Features Benefits: This textbook is an excellent resource for drilling engineers, directional drillers, drilling supervisors and managers, and petroleum engineering students.

Book excerpt: While majority of today’s oil wells employ directional drilling technology (deviated, extended reach and horizontal wells), a thorough understanding of the drill string dynamics is necessary to increase the drilling efficiency. Wellbore in such wells spans long horizontal distances through the shale to extract oil and natural gas effectively. Very long slender drill pipes transmit the required torque and cutting force through miles of distance from the earth’s surface to the drill bit. Drill string is subjected to different loads and torques which can cause coupled random excitations and failure of its components (drill pipes, bit, sensor tools and wellbore) eventually. If left unnoticed, these vibrations can cause stuck pipe and reduced rate of penetration, both of which are heavily cost dependent. Identifying the conditions causing harmful vibrations hence would significantly reduce cost and time. Controlling the drill string and bottom hole assembly is one way of mitigating the dynamic instability, which is currently done by means of controlling the rotational speed, torque applied and axial force applied to the drill string. This article presents modeling of horizontal drilling and the comparison of horizontal and vertical drill string dynamics. Drill string components are discretized into lumped elements based on their curvature. A vertical wellbore structure with same drill string components is considered for comparison. The computations are performed in MATLAB. Results and discussions are presented in the later part of the report.

Office of Research and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this study is to assess horizontal drilling as an alternative to pilot tunneling in geological investigation prior to the design and construction of highway tunnels and to identify means to increase the penetration capability and accuracy and decrease the cost of horizontal drilling. Volume 1 assesses the horizontal penetration capabilities of available drilling equipment. Volume 2 presents a model for estimating the time and cost of drilling long horizontal holes. Sample problems are worked in detail to illustrate the application of the model to four (4) different drilling techniques. Volume 3 evaluates the potential for improving horizontal drilling capability by: (a) more efficient use of existing equipment, modification of existing equipment, and adaption of equipment not previously employed for horizontal drilling and by (b) developing new horizontal drilling equipment and techniques.
