title: Cuttings transport with drillstring rotation
ispublished: pub
subjects: utilities
studygroups: esgi59
companyname: Schlumberger
full_text_status: public
problem_statement: When an oil well is being drilled, rock cuttings are transported up to the
surface by a flow of viscous non-Newtonian fluid. Current mathematical
models of the flow and transport neglect the effects of drillstring rotation.
Schlumberger wish to have a model that includes these effects. The Study
Group identified many of the ingredients that need to go into building such
a model.
