Prediction of casing critical buckling during shale gas hydraulic fracturing. (2019)
Journal Article
MOHAMMED, A.I., OYENEYIN, B., BARTLETT, M. and NJUGUNA, J. 2020. Prediction of casing critical buckling during shale gas hydraulic fracturing. Journal of petroleum science and engineering [online], 185, article ID 106655. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.petrol.2019.106655

Casing deformation during volume fracturing in shale gas horizontal wells is caused by both existing and induced stresses. These stresses jointly alter and compound the stress field around the casing leading to inefficient well stimulation as planned...

Casing structural integrity and failure modes in a range of well types: a review. (2019)
Journal Article
MOHAMMED, A.I., OYENEYIN, B., ATCHISON, B. and NJUGUNA, J. 2019. Casing structural integrity and failure modes in a range of well types: a review. Journal of natural gas science and engineering [online], 68, article ID 102898. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jngse.2019.05.011

This paper focus on factors attributing to casing failure, their failure mechanism and the resulting failure mode. The casing is a critical component in a well and the main mechanical structural barrier element that provide conduits and avenue for oi...
