Casing collapse is one of the major problems in oil fields, imposing a lot of costs on oil companies. This problem occurs not only at drilling times in some formations but also after the completion and production can lead to many problems. Analysis of the behavior of casing collapse in terms of geo-mechanics and solid mechanics could significantly meet the needs of the oil industry of Iran. In ...

Based on statistical analysis on the situation of casing damage and water injection pressure in Pubei Oilfield, it shows that the main forms of casing damage in Pubei Oilfield are deformation and dislocation. Dip angle and faults have a significant impact on casing damage and casing damage is closely related to water injection pressure. Through laboratory simulating experiment and theoretical c...

With the unceasing exploitation of gas fields, casing damage is an important element which restrict oil-gas throughput. In this paper we present an distributed optical fiber Bragg grating analysical method in the Real-time Casing Damage Monitoring Work which through the study of the main type and damage of casing damage, analysis and comparison of the casing damage monitoring method, responding...

Based on the propagation rules of electromagnetic waves in metal conductors, this paper analyzes the characteristics of electric field and magnetic field of internal conductors. Then the complex power of electromagnetic wave is calculated. The impedance calculation formula of metal conductor is derived. Moreover, in order to identify and detect defects of metal casing, an alternating current im...

A good knowledge of the parameters causing casing damage is critically important due to vital role of casing during the life of a well. Cement sheath, which fills in the gap between the casing and wellbore wall, has a profound effect on the resistance of the casing against applied loads. Most of the empirical equations proposed to estimate the collapse resistance of casing ignore the effects of...

Stress state analysis to casing-cement sheathformation system (CCSFS) is the foundation of the wellbore integrity design and examination. Many elastic mechanic models have been established to calculate the stresses and displacements of CCFS, but all analytical models and most finite element models took no account of the initial loaded state, and ignored the initial stresses and displacements on...
