Offshore Brazil is a technically challenging drilling environment due to its size, depth, section length and lithology column characteristics. While drilling in this environment, operators often face nonproductive time (NPT) incidents such as stuck p

Historically, casing while drilling (CWD) has not been largely deployed in Brazil land operations due to inconsistent results achieved in the past and also due to the lack of a clearly identified technical need. In some onshore fields located in the

Abstract Salt drilling in offshore projects has become more frequent over the last 10 years in many parts of the world. In Brazil, important oil discoveries were made in carbonates reservoirs that lay below thick salt bodies. Drilling through salt ca

Geologically heterogeneous (mixed) formations pose a significant challenge to drillers in terms of drilling performance. Shale and other soft and plastically behaving rocks favor the use of PDC bits, while hard and abrasive sandstone with hard cement

It is well known in the industry that drilling and under-reaming can be very demanding. Destructive vibration is one of the main concerns, especially when drilling through interbedded formations. In today’s Gulf of Mexico (GoM) deepwater market, in

Abstract Nowadays, one of the greatest deepwater drilling challenges is maximizing drilling efficiency while mitigating vibration dysfunctions when drilling and underreaming through salt and sub-salt formations. Historically, vibration has been respo

It is well known in the oil industry that there are many drilling challenges associated with salt drilling in the Gulf of Mexico continental shelf. Although many wells have already been drilled through salt, hazard prediction is still not very accura
