Mud pulse telemetry is a pivotal technology in modern drilling operations, enabling the transmission of downhole measurements to the surface via modulated pressure pulses in the circulating drilling ...

Determining the critical or optimum mud weight is not an easy task, especially when drilling horizontal wells. Drilling mud weight is an important factor in drilling, demanding significant attention ...

Rotary drilling is used in almost all oil and gas wells drilled globally. In this method of drilling, a length of steel pipe- with a drill bit on the end is rotated to cut a hole called the well bore.

A slide and compound drilling model calculates build-up rate (BUR) of a single bent-angle motor assembly using a physical model and genetic-algorithm back propagation (GA-BP) regression analysis. A ...
