... Abstract Drilling performance is greatly driven by the rate of penetration (ROP) and its optimization. Therefore, accurate prediction of ROP before drilling can help take measures to achieve drilling objectives smoothly. Numerous inter-twined formation and drilling parameters affect the ROP...

... to the low rate of penetration (ROP) and poor drillsting dynamic behavior with severe levels of shocks; thus, multiple unwanted bottomhole assembly (BHA) trips. The operator's major objective was to reduce the high well-construction costs in this environment; hence, motivating the search for a novel drill...

... mathematical model-based techniques have been presented in recent years for improving the rate of penetration (ROP) in section-milling. However, only a few data-driven methodologies have been adopted in this field of interest, most likely due to unavailability of data. A trainingsubset of field data from...

... Abstract A high rate of penetration (ROP) is considered one of the most sought-after targets when drilling a well. While physics-based models determine the importance of drilling parameters, they fail to capture the extent or degree of influence of the interplay of the different dynamic...

... workflow for the latter for two large hole sections in a recent deepwater well in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). The relationships between mechanical and hydraulic power input and rate of penetration (ROP) are well known, and recent publications have provided examples of very high ROP in large hole sizes...

... will identify, describe and discuss the factors leading to the creation of a smooth drilling environment, reduction in MSE, higher rate of penetration (ROP) and lower costs on this well. Introduction As the economics of drilling and completing wells in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico environment become more...

Top hole directional drilling of wells in high density locations such as multi-well producing platforms require carefully planned, detailed procedures and reliable techniques to result in a safe...

Using real well examples, this paper discusses: measurements the tool records and transmits; dramatic differences between downhole measurements...
