Determination of safe mud window considering time-dependent variations of temperature and pore pressure: Analytical and numerical approaches

Wellbore stability is a key to have a successful drilling operation. Induced stresses are the main factors affecting wellbore instability and associated problems in drilling operations. These stresses are significantly impacted by pore pressure variation and thermal stresses in the field. In order t...
