Applied Hydro-Aeromechanics in Oil and Gas Drilling (eBook)

An all-in-one reference combining hydrodynamic theory with
drilling applications for the design, planning, and optimization of
drilling operations

Hydromechanical processes underlie the majority of technology
operations in drilling and present a crucial concern as the pace
and depth of drilling increasesin today's energy-hungry world.
Applied Hydro-aeromechanics in Oil and Gas Drilling offers a
unique resource for properly modeling and understanding the
hydro-dynamic forces affecting a drilling site. Combining
hydrodynamic theory with specific drilling applications, this
coverage provides readers with a comprehensive reference for
designing, planning, and optimizing drilling operations.

Featuring the latest technologies and developments affecting the
field, Applied Hydro-aeromechanics in Oil and Gas Drilling
covers topics including:

* The physics of hydro-aeromechanical phenomena in drilling
processes

* Calculation methods for understanding and designing circulation
systems for the washing, blasting, and cementing of wells

* Problems of interaction between wells and reservoirs

* Problems with the fluid, gas, and liquid-gas mixture flows
necessary in designing and building of wells

Presenting an unmatched combination of theory, modeling issues,
and concrete, illustrative examples, Applied Hydro-aeromechanics
in Oil and Gas Drilling bringstogether formerly widespread
technical information to offer a systematic and methodical guide.
It is an essential reference for both students and researchers
studying fluid mechanics, as well as engineers and other
professionals working in the oil and gas industry.
