... Abstract The use of drilling foams is increasing because foams exhibit properties that are desirable in many drilling operations. A good knowledge of cuttings transport efficiency under downhole conditions is essential for safe and economical foam drilling. Previous cuttings transport studies...

... Abstract Foams are of considerable interest for annular pressure management in many drilling applications. While foam rheology and hydraulics have been studied in the past, knowledge of cuttings transport with foam is very limited for vertical wells, and even less well understood for horizontal...

... Abstract Many studies have been conducted to determine the optimal hydraulic conditions when conventional fluids are used in drilling operations. However, little information is available for cuttings transport when gasified fluids are used as a drilling fluid. Since deviated and horizontal-well...

... Abstract Coiled tubing (CT) drilling has grown tremendously in the last few years. In spite of the many technological advances that have accompanied this growth, one significant remaining challenge is effective cuttings transport, particularly in deviated wells. This paper presents a summary...
