GEOMECHANICAL NUMERICAL MODELING IN THE STUDY OF THE STRESS-STRAIN STATE OF THE BOREHOLE ZONE

Abstract

This article examines current geomechanics issues related to numerical modeling of stress-strain states in the near-wellbore zone during oil and gas field development. Methods for analyzing stress fields are proposed to identify potential failure zones in the main casing and perforation borehole components. An example of calculating reservoir permeability using effective conditional modeling of near-wellbore stresses is provided.
