About 10 years ago, petroleum related rock mechanics was mostly confined to a few specific topics like hydraulic fracturing or drilling bit performance. Although a few precursors had already established the basics of what is now spreading out.
In fact, since that time, the whole petroleum industry has progressively realised that the state of underground stresses and its modification due to petroleum related operations, could have a significant impact on performances, in many different aspects of exploration and production. Therefore all those concepts need now to be presented in a simple but comprehensive way.
An engineering science, “Petroleum related rock mechanics” is also dependent on the variable and uncertain character of natural geological materials at depth. The limited availability of relevant data is also part of the problem. For that reason, it is essential that any potential user is aware of the high potential of the technique, together with the actual limitations.
This book should totally fulfill these needs. The reader will be provided with fundamentals and basics, but also with the techniques used in data acquisition, and eventually with a series of typical applications like wellbore stability, sand production or subsidence.
The book is mostly for students, geologists or engineers who want to know more about rock mechanics, and specifically rock mechanics applied to petroleum industry. It is well suited for instance, for drilling or mud engineers wanting to know more on the mechanical aspect of wellbore stability problems, for reservoir engineers who have to deal with stress related problems in their field, like compaction, stress dependent permeability or fracture injectivity. Operation geologists dealing with drilling in abnormal pressure zones will also benefit from this book.
Elf Aquitaine Norge, together with other Norwegian oil companies, has been supporting IKU for several years in their effort to build a strong group in rock mechanics. IKU has now a well-established team, whose competence is recognised on the international level. They have mostly been contributing in the field of acoustic wave propagation in rocks and sand production appraisal. They are also very active in research and consulting activities in the different fields of petroleum related rock mechanics.
