Modelling the Effects of Temperature and Pressure on Equivalent Circulating Density (ECD) During Drilling Operations Using Artificial Neural Networks

Stanley Ifeanyi Fredrick Okonkwo & Ogbonna Friday Joel · Journal of Engineering Research and Reports · 2023

Incorrect evaluation of equivalent circulating density (ECD) while drilling oil and gas wells may result in drilling problems such as lost circulation, kicks, differential pipe sticking etc especially in narrow drilling margins. Due to the incompressible nature of liquids, increa...
