Simulation of Drilled Cuttings Transport through an Inclined Wellbore by Using CFD

Introduction: Efficient transportation of cuttings is a vital factor for optimization of a good drilling operation. This study investigated the influence of a range of variables such as mud weight, cutting size, viscosity and circulation rate on cutting transport efficiency in an inclined well using...
