The aricle is about the pipe stick problems of deep well drilling. Pipe stick problem is one of the drilling problems. There are two types of pipe stick problems exist. One of them is differential pressure pipe sticking. Another one of them is mechanical pipe sticking. There are a lot of reasons for pipe stick problems. Indigators of differential pressure sticking are increase in torque and drug forces, inability to reciprocate drill string and uninterrupted drilling fluid circulation. Key words: pipe stick, mecanical pipe stick,difference of pressure, drill pipe, drilling mud, bottomhole pressure, formation pressure

Stress sensors have shown potential to provide “health monitoring” of a wide range of issues related to packaging of integrated circuits, and silicon carbide offers the advantage of much higher temperature sensor operation with application in packaged high-voltage, high-power SiC devices as well as both automotive and aerospace systems, geothermal plants, and deep well drilling, to name a few. This paper discusses the theory and uniaxial calibration of resistive stress sensors on 4H silicon carbide (4H-SiC) and provides new theoretical descriptions for four-element resistor rosettes and van der Pauw (VDP) stress sensors. The results delineate the similarities and differences relative to those on (100) silicon: resistors on the silicon face of 4H-SiC respond to only four of the six components of the stress state; a four-element rosette design exists for measuring the in-plane stress components; two stress quantities can be measured in a temperature compensated manner. In contrast to silicon, only one combined coefficient is required for temperature compensated stress measurements. Calibration results from a single VDP device can be used to calculate the basic lateral and transverse piezoresistance coefficients for 4H-SiC material. Experimental results are presented for lateral and transverse piezoresistive coefficients for van der Pauw structures and p- and n-type resistors. The VDP devices exhibit the expected 3.16 times higher stress sensitivity than standard resistor rosettes.

The paper reviews the major ways of reducing failure cases during drilling works on the territory of Azerbaijan and South Caspian basin, as well as in oil-gas bearing structures of the Caspian Sea considering geodynamic tension of reservoirs, seismic activity and the occurrences of velocity changes. If not considering such aspects as seismodynamic activity of the territory and geodynamic tensions, failure and complication risks in the process of deep well drilling sharply increase. Physical-chemical features of rocks in the same formation are not similar and various patterns of complicated seismic record can be seen. It is necessary to study in detail the patterns of seismic record in different directions of seismic profile passing near the location selected for the project well. Foremost, it is significant to reveal the interval of drilled reservoir, where the complicated record is occurred and specify the reasons for the sharp difference in wave field patterns. Moreover, while conducting drilling works in the areas with complicated features, the failure case risks should be considered as well.

The majority of oilfield Wellhead and Tree equipment has been designed with guidance from codes API 6A and 17D. However, their design methods are not the most appropriate for the new High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) applications; equipment rated above 15 ksi (103 MPa) Working Pressure and/or above 350 °F (177 °C). This paper discusses the limitations of established design methods and presents more suitable methods for HPHT applications. FEA is well established as a stress analysis method for use in conventional Pressure Vessel design; however it is not so well established for load bearing interfaces. This leaves a gap in our Design Methods, since load bearing interfaces are intrinsic to Wellhead Equipment Pressure Vessel design. Intrinsic because many of our Pressure Vessels are “capped” by hangers and connectors instead of flanges; if a hanger Load Shoulder fails then the Pressure Vessel above it has failed. Unique to the oilfield are infrequent but extremely high loads. These loads are much higher than the Working Condition and in most cases they stem from field testing and emergency situations. If the established ASME methods are used for these cases certain projects may not be viable.
