Hartha Formation is an overburdened horizon in the X-oilfield which generates a lot of Non-
Productive Time (NPT) associated with drilling mud losses. This study has been conducted …

Density difference between fluids always exists in cementation, gravity generated stress
caused the horizontal well cementation displacement process more complex. In this paper …

Drilling horizontal and extended reach wells (ERW) has played critical role in enhancing
well productivity, efficient reservoir drainage, and minimizing environmental impact. Despite …

This proposed paper aims to evaluate the impact of poor logging data on the prediction of
accurate mud weight and to assess the impact of Uni-Axial Compressive Strength (UCS) for …

Lost circulation is one of major drilling challenges encountered while drilling. The industry
uses many LCM products, loss control slurries, specially designed LCM blends, engineered …

The liberation of methane gas from shale layers (unconventional gas) without the use of
hydraulic fracking, gas recovery could not occur. Therefore, three phases are needed to …

Karst features in the upper part of Mishrif carbonate reservoir can commonly create
substantial vugs, pores and fissures and, thus, increasing the porosity and enhancing …

Abstract Characterization, testing and evaluation of LCM products are very important for
successful treatment of loss circulation problems. However, due to the lack of suitable API …
