Optimization of Flow Rate and Pipe Rotation Speed Considering Effective Cuttings Transport Using Data-Driven Models

Effectively transporting drilled cuttings to the surface is a vital part of the well construction process. Usually, mechanistic models are used to estimate the cuttings concentration during drilling. Based on the results from these model, operational parameters are adjusted to mitigate any nonproduc...
