Fundamentals of Drilling Engineering Review:

Drilling engineering is a multidisciplinary subject, including a broad topic in engineering, geology, chemistry, and physics. A general textbook must cover all these topics with reasonable balance between topics. Fundamentals of Drilling Engineering, an update of the classic Applied Drilling Engineering (Textbook Series Vol. 2), takes a new look at the basics of drilling engineering. The specific chapter topics covered in this book include the following:

Rotary Drilling:

This chapter describes the basics of rotary drilling; there are a number of problems posed, suitable for an introductory course on drilling.

Introduction to Geomechanics in Drilling:

The objective of this chapter is to introduce the basic concepts of geomechanics related to drilling, including wellbore stability and the selection of suitable mud weights.

Drilling Fluids:

This chapter describes the types, functions, formulation, and testing of drilling fluids.

Cementing:

This chapter describes the primary objectives of cementing, the formulation and testing of cement, and methods for cement placement.

Drilling Hydraulics:

This chapter describes how wellbore pressures are calculated in a variety of scenarios, such as circulation and surge pressures.

Rotary Drilling Bits:

This chapter discusses bit types and selection criteria, factors affecting bit wear and drilling rate, and optimization of bit performance.

Casing Design:

This chapter addresses the types and functions of casing strings and the methods used for the selection, sizing, and design of well completions.

Directional Drilling:

This chapter presents directional well trajectory design, the control of the well path while drilling, and methods for modelling the torque and drag forces on a drill string.

Fundamentals of Drill String Design:

This chapter presents descriptions of the components of a drill-string, determination of the forces and moments in the drill string, the effect of wellbore pressures on drill string forces, and overall drill string design.

Drilling Problems:

This chapter presents specific drilling problems and their solutions, including lost circulation, well control, recovery of broken drill string components, and stuck drill pipe.
