A Three-Dimensional Finite-Element Model in ABAQUS to Analyze Wellbore Instability and Determine Mud Weight Window

A Three-Dimensional Finite-Element Model in ABAQUS to Analyze Wellbore Instability and Determine Mud Weight Window

Wellbore instability is one of the main problems of the oil industry, causing high costs in the drilling operation. Knowing about the mechanical properties of involved formations and in-situ stresses is a privilege gained by determining an appropriate mud weight window (MWW). To this aim, a three-di...
