Abstract:

To consider the needs for drilling and the principles of carry and suspend formation cuttings, the permitted yield point control boundary model of drilling fluid was derived using solid-liquid dynamics under certain given assumptions. Corresponding calculation software was developed in c#. The results show that: Any one of the drilling fluid density, pump discharge, plastic viscosity and drilling fluid pump cylinder bore increases would result in the permitted yield point control boundary which turned out to be narrow. Drilling fluid pump discharge is the main cause of the decrease in the upper range of the permitted yield point control boundary. While drilling fluid density is the main cause of the decrease in the lower range. Application had shown the practicality and accuracy of this model in Tarim oil field KS8 well.

"My experiences in publishing a paper with Bentham Open is good. I must say that the speed of publication in The Open Petroleum Engineering Journal is very fast. It takes only two month for the pioneer reviewing process. The delay was caused by me. And what’s more, the publisher’s office is quite helpful. I guess they are dealing with thousands emails every week, but they process my request in a very short period of time."
