Abstract:
Understanding the behavior of the borehole temperature recovery process, which influences drilling operations, requires an adequate estimation of fluid temperature. The presence of salt in a saline formation changes the composition of the annular fluid and has a significant impact on the fluid temperature distribution during drilling operations. As a result, while drilling a saline formation, it is vital to examine the key parameter that determines an accurate estimate of fluid temperature. Using python software and statistical quantitative methods, this study proposes a simplified user-friendly computational system that analyzes the drilling fluid systems performance evaluation and selection optimization.
