High Pressure In The Drilling Process

High pressure in the Drilling Process in the Oil and Gas Industry can cause several problems as follows:

- Loose and uncontrolled formation of fluid

- Borehole walls collapsed due to high pore water pressure

- Drill pipe stuck in the drill hole due to swelling of the drill hole walls

- Drilling mud leaks into the formation

- The drilling process becomes more difficult

- The drilling time becomes longer

Techniques for dealing with high pressure:

- Using drilling mud which can cool and lubricate the drill bit, remove debris, maintain well control, increase hydrostatic pressure in the wellbore, and prevent formation fluid from entering the drilled hole

- Using various sensors to monitor pressure in the wellbore and formation

- Using well control equipment to prevent and control blowouts

- Using new technology that can withstand high pressure and temperature

High pressure is a challenge in the Drilling Process in the Oil and Gas Industry, however, companies can use various new techniques and technologies to overcome hazards and risks and increase safety and efficiency.
