Description
Drilling technology has evolved in order to get at the increasingly harder to find oil, and in a more environmentally friendly way.
Successful drilling operations require blending many technologies. Drilling equipment and procedures have a unique language that must
be conquered in order to understand drilling operations.
Working Guide to Drilling Equipment and Operations provides a fundamental,
basic knowledge of the intricacies of drilling fluid, drilled solids management, drill bits, drill string design, directional drilling,
cementing, casing, hydraulic optimization, and a discussion of predominant problems such as stuck pipe and lost circulation. Background
information, such as: clay structure (needed to understand well bore instability and drilling fluids), discussion of pressure and pressure
effects, the theory behind factors affecting drilling performance, and rock failure under pressure, are included to enhance the understanding
of the drilling process and problems.
