Contents Part I: Fundamental of solid mechanics: Stress/strain definitions and components -- Stress and strain transformation -- Principal and deviatoric stresses and strains -- Theory of elasticity -- Failure criteria. -- Part II: Petroleum rock mechanics: Introduction to petroleum rock mechanics -- Porous rocks and effective stresses -- In situ stress -- Rock strength and rock failure -- Drilling design and selection of optimal mud weight -- Stresses around a wellbore -- Wellbore instability analysis -- Wellbore instability analysis using inversion technique -- Wellbore instability analysis using quantitative risk assessment -- The effect of mud losses on wellbore stability -- Shale oil, shale gas, and hydraulic fracturing.
Summary Petroleum Rock Mechanics: Drilling Operations and Well Design, Second Edition, keeps petroleum and drilling engineers centrally focused on the basic fundamentals surrounding geomechanics, while also keeping them up-to-speed on the latest issues and practical problems. Updated with new chapters on operations surrounding shale oil, shale gas, and hydraulic fracturing, and with new sections on in-situ stress, drilling design of optimal mud weight, and wellbore instability analysis, this book is an ideal resource. By creating a link between theory with practical problems, this updated edition continues to provide the most recent research and fundamentals critical to today's drilling operations. Key Features: Helps readers grasp the techniques needed to analyze and solve drilling challenges, in particular wellbore instability analysis; Teaches rock mechanic fundamentals and presents new concepts surrounding sand production and hydraulic fracturing operations; Includes new case studies and sample problems to practice. -- Provided by publisher.
