Improving Hole Cleaning on High Angle Wells
Poor hole cleaning becomes a serious issue specially when drilling high angle (deviated) wells because, drilled cuttings tend to settle on the lower side of the well bore which may lead to other drilling problems such as suck pipe. By increasing hole cleaning efficiency we will speed up the drilling...

| Summary: | Poor hole cleaning becomes a serious issue specially when drilling high angle (deviated) wells because, drilled cuttings tend to settle on the lower side of the well bore which may lead to other drilling problems such as suck pipe. By increasing hole cleaning efficiency we will speed up the drilling operations, and therefore, reduce the total cost to drill one well. |
