Estimation of caving volumetric-flow using the ultrasonic Doppler Method

ABSTRACT Estimating the volumetric flow of cuttings and cavings that are extracted and transported by the drilling mud into the flow line while drilling a well is of major interest to for drillers so that they can understand the drilling conditions and maintain the wellbore stability. In this paper,...
