The Maximum-Allowable Well Depth While Drilling of Extended-Reach Wells Targeting to Offshore Depleted Reservoirs
In depleted offshore reservoirs, pore pressure declines and consequently horizontal in-situ stresses decrease as well. This causes a very limited well depth for extended-reach drilling targeting to offshore depleted reservoirs. In this paper, based on analyzing the safe mud weight window of the depl...
