f Operational Geomechanics - A Case Study, Nile Delta Egypt

Process for showing optimal operational geomechanics. Integration of pre-drill geomechanical modelling with real-time wellbore stability monitoring and drilling engineering to lower NPT in the field that had experienced severe problems with stuck pipes resulting in multiple sidetracks. Through this work developing a fit for purpose LWD program, and also identifying weaknesses in PPP on the rig through non conventional methods. Employing real-time geomechancial engineers alleviated this problem.
