An estimation of rock strength using a drilling performance model: A case study in Blacktip field, Australia

This paper presents the results of a case study performed in Well BT-1 in the Blacktip field; an offshore field located in northern Australia. An analytical model based on mud logging data was used to estimate a formation’s strength in Well BT-1. The drilled well is vertical and the input data to th...
