Abstract
Analyzing a well includes receiving an input for the well, calculating a stress of the well using the input, and obtaining fracture information based on the stress of the well. A wellbore strengthening solution for the well is identified using the fracture information. Analyzing the well may further include performing a wellbore operation using the wellbore strengthening solution.
Claims20
A method for analyzing a well comprising:
- receiving an input for the well;
- calculating a stress of the well using the input;
- obtaining fracture information based on the stress of the well;
- identifying a wellbore strengthening solution for the well using the fracture information;
- and
- performing a wellbore operation using the wellbore strengthening solution.
3 more elements
A system for analyzing a well comprising:
- a data repository comprising an input for the well;
- a modeling tool operatively connected to the data repository and configured to:
- calculate a stress of the well using the input,
- obtain fracture information based on the stress of the well, and
- identify a wellbore strengthening solution for the well using the fracture information;
- and
- a drill control tool operatively connected to the data repository and configured to:
- perform a wellbore operation using the wellbore strengthening solution.
5 more elements
