Geochemical Evaluation of Geopressued Geothermal Wellbore Cement
Geopressured reservoirs can serve as ample source of geothermal energy with temperatures as high as 140 0C. Salinities are typically high in these reservoirs due to the dissolution of surrounding salt domes. Cement retrogression can occur under these geopressured geothermal conditions resulting from calcium silicate hydrate [3CaO2SiO23H2O] phase in hydrated cement converting to alpha dicalciu...
متن کاملBorehole Geomechanics in Petroleum Exploration and Development: From Controlling Wellbore Stability to Predicting Fault Seal Integrity
Few in the Australian oil patch were familiar with the term 'borehole breakout' when David Lowry alerted PESA Journal readers to this phenomenon (1990, v.17, p. 43-44). Ten years later, few are unfamiliar, with breakouts having been reported in every Australian basin subject to significant drilling activity. This change witnesses the dramatically increased awareness of borehole geomechanics in ...
متن کاملStudy on Wellbore Stability of Shallow Sediments in Deepwater Drilling
Method: In this paper, the shallow formation around the borehole is divided into plastic zone and elastic zone considering it under nonuniform in-situ stress. The collapse pressure formula of shallow formation is derived by taking the shrinkage rate of the borehole as the instability criterion. The fracturing pressure calculation model of shallow sediment under non-uniform in-situ stress is der...
متن کاملStudy on Wellbore Stability and Instability Mechanism in Piedmont Structures
Piedmont tectonic belts are rich of oil and gas resources, however the intense tectonic stress and broken formation may cause great drilling problems in piedmont structures such as borehole collapse, lost circulation and gas cutting. Through analysis of in situ stress properties, bedding structure and mechanical characteristics, wellbore instability mechanism was expounded from rock mechanics, ...
متن کاملPoro-thermoelastic Mechanisms in Wellbore Stability and Reservoir Stimulation
Some fundamental mechanisms associated with cooling/heating of the rock in the context of drilling and reservoir stimulation in enhanced geothermal systems are described. The role of temperature and pore pressure in wellbore failure and fracture width is considered using analytical and boundary element models. Results indicate that cooling induces a pore pressure drop inside the formation that ...
