Abstract
The purpose of this project titled “illustrations of measurement while drilling, weight on bit and torque on drilling performance” is to increase drilling efficiency in directional wells, peaks and troughs are characteristic of the nature of the oil and gas industry. With current prices hovering just above $60 per barrel (Bloomberg, 2019), it has never been a better time to increase the efficiency of the drilling process. This research focuses on the control of surface parameters to understand vibrations in directional wells; this paper discusses actual cases where the use of data from these downhole sensors has improved drilling performance In conclusion to this research parameters such as WOB and RPM were varied and their effects on depth drilled, response torque, ROP, MSE were studied
for vertical well configuration and directional well configurations.
