Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment of Small Hydraulic Downhole Motors for Well Drilling ApplicationsIuri Appolonievich Sazonov, Mikhail Albertovich Mokhov, Anastasia Aleksandrovna DemidovaFurther development of the well drilling technologies becomes possible due to the improvement of rock cutting tools and hydraulic downhole motors. When developing a new hydraulic motor, it is highly important to eliminate rotor vibrations and reduce motor size. There are two main trends in further improvement of hydraulic motors: The upgrade of the downhole screw motors currently in use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 7 Oct 2016 · 7,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Parameters of Selection and Replacement Drilling Bits Based on Geo-Mechanical Factors: (Case Study: Gas and Oil Reservoir in the Southwest of Iran)Arzhang NabilouThe purpose of the present study was to explore the effect of drill bit selection parameters on enhanced oil and gas recovery fin Iranian oil and gas fields. In this study, many methods and parameters were discussed. These parameters are practically tested on many wells in southwestern field of Iran. Out of common drill bit selection methods, length unit drilling … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 9 May 2016 · 8,362 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAutomatic Measurement of Drilling Parameters to Evaluate the Mechanical Properties of SoilsDaniele Pettinau, Pierpaolo Oreste, Marilena Cardu, Davide GuidarelliAny underground work, carried out either to perform excavations, should be based on detailed knowledge of the geological, hydrogeological and geomechanical conditions of the underlying materials. The continuous automatic diagraphy is a test that consists in the continuous surveying of drilling parameters, with total destruction of the core, which can be used, together with geognostic probing surveys and a detailed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 17 Jun 2013 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWellbore Surveying While Drilling Based on Kalman FilteringMahmoud ElGizawy, Aboelmagd Noureldin, Jacques Georgy et al.Problem statement: Oil and gas are global fuels obtained primarily from drilling wells in underground terrestrial reservoirs. Vertical drilling is preferred because of its simplicity and therefore low cost, but subsurface targets can often be procured only by directing the wellbore along predefined non-vertical trajectories. For instance, directional drilling must be employed to reach locations inaccessible to the drilling rig, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,577 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleExperimental Investigation of Limonene-based Environmental-Friendly Emulsion Drilling MudOlaitan Oluwaseum Micheal, Orodu Oyinkepreye David, Ehinmowo Adegboyega BoluThe use of emulsion drilling mud in the oil and gas industry has gained wide acceptance. However, the disposal of drill cuttings and the waste of such emulsion drilling mud usually poses environmental concern. Hence, there is the need to seek oil from biodegradable sources as an alternative to the current conventional diesel oil which constitute environmental threat. In this … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2017 · 7,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSimulation of the Cuttings Cleaning During the Drilling OperationHussain H. Al-Kayiem, Nadia Mohd Zaki, Muhamad Z. Asyraf, Mahir Elya ElfeelProblem statement: Oil well cleaning is the ability of a drilling fluid to suspend and transport drilled cuttings from the down hole (bit face) to the surface. The cleaning performance was affected by many factors such as fluid viscosity, annular flow velocity, angle of inclination and drill cuttings size and shape and. Approach: Navier-Stoke equations, the continuity equation and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,249 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Significance of Deepwater Oil Drilling for the US Energy Security: The Case of the Gulf of MexicoHafez Abdo, Matthew VellacottThis study seeks to quantify and model the significance of the deepwater oil development for domestic US energy supplies in the short-term. It explores the significance and potential contribution deepwater oil supply from the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) can make in providing energy security to the US. The output of this research demonstrates the growth in deepwater oil production and … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 3 Mar 2012 · 8,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA COSSERAT-TYPE PLATE THEORY AND ITS APPLICATION TO CARBON NANOTUBE MICROSTRUCTUREAbdellatif Selmi, Hedi Hassis, Issam Doghri, Hatem ZenzriThe predictive capabilities of plate and shell theories greatly depend on their underlying kinematic assumptions. In this study, we develop a Cosserat-type elastic plate theory which accounts for rotations around the normal to the mid-surface plane (so-called drilling rotations). Internal loads, equilibrium equations, boundary conditions and constitutive equations are derived. The case of a Single Walled carbon Nanotube (SWNT) modelled … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 12 May 2014 · 6,930 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCalibration Coefficients for Residual Stress Measurement in Composite Materials Using Finite Element MethodA. G. Ghasemi, M. AkbarzadehProblem statement: Since the residual stresses can cause a scienificant reduction in strength of the mechanical components, having a semi-destructive measuring method that would predict and model theses stresses would be an advantage. The hole drilling method has been used, by many researches, for measurement of the residual stresses in different materials. In this article, the finite element method is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 18 Feb 2012 · 9,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNew Trajectory Control Directional MWD Accuracy Prediction and Wellbore Positioning MethodAhmed Abd Elaziz Ibrahim, Tagwa Ahmed Musa, Tang FengLin, Yao AiGouThe deviation control is to restrict the drilling direction of the bit from time to time. The drilling direction is of course depending on the direction of the resultant forces acting on the bit. What is the relationship between these directions? Are there any other influential factors? Answers to such questions, different points of view were subjected to analysis. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,905 accessesView PDFCite
