Experimental Study of Wellbore Instability in Clays

This paper presents the results of an extensive program of laboratory model wellbore tests that have been performed to study wellbore instability in saturated clays. The tests were conducted on resedimented Boston blue clay (RBBC) anisotropically consolidated to vertical effective stresses up to 10...
