Achieving optimal wellbore stability during drilling operations is paramount for ensuring successful exploration of hydrocarbons. Managed pressure drilling (MPD) has emerged as a sophisticated technique to enhance wellbore strength. By dynamically controlling the drilling fluid pressure throughout the wellbore, MPD mitigates the risks associated wi

Drilling and establishing wells in soft shale formations presents a significant challenge due to the inherent deformability of these geological structures. Wellbore stability analysis is crucial for predicting and mitigating potential ruptures that can result costly downtime, ecological damage, and safety hazards. Thorough analyses involve a variet
