Title: Experience in the detection and suppression of torsional vibration from mud logging data

Conference ·
OSTI ID:382639

Vibration detection from mud logging systems has revealed that torsional vibration is common in harsh drilling environments, and is a major cause of bit and drillstring failures. Suppressing this type of vibration with an automated vibration detection system, torque feedback, and rigsite vibration suppression guidelines has produced a significant improvement in drilling performance.
