Multi-Objective Optimization of Drilling Trajectory Considering Buckling Risk

Directional drilling involves three sections—vertical, curved, and horizontal—and is used for drilling offshore wells and mining unconventional resources. The initial design of a well trajectory is important because the total length of the well trajectory is associated with the drilling cost; furthe...
