Simulation Study Evaluating Alternative Initial Responses to Formation Fluid Influx during Managed Pressure Drilling

Managed pressure drilling is an innovative technique to precisely manage wellbore pressure. It is particularly applicable for reducing the risk of a kick or lost returns when drilling with a narrow window between pore pressure and fracture pressure. The constant bottomhole pressure method of managed...
