Mudcake effects on wellbore stress and fracture initiation pressure and implications for wellbore strengthening

Abstract Although a large volume of mudcake filtration test data is available in the literature, effects of mudcake on wellbore strengthening cannot be quantified without incorporating the data into a stress-analysis model. Traditional models for determining fracture initiation pressure (FIP) either...
