... computational fluid dynamics (CFD) runs were performed to evaluate the cementing job quality and based on the simulations it was decided to increase the cement volume to minimize any impact of contamination. The cementing job was performed with no operational issues and cement returns were observed above...

... are difficult to set up in laboratory environment. The objective of this work is to underscore importance of advanced simulation technology in evaluating down-hole tool performance. To attest usage of simulations two examples are presented, the first one is utilization of computational fluid dynamic (CFD...
