Improved stiff string torque and drag prediction using a computationally efficient contact algorithm
Due to the intermittent contact with the wellbore, determining torque and drag for deviated wells is difficult. Most models have ignored drill string stiffness and assumed continual contact to simplify derivation. However, the accuracy of these ‘soft-string’ models is restricted, especially at high...
