Improved drilling performance enables us to drill a high quality well at less cost per foot in the lowest
time possible. Drillstring vibration is one of the limiting factors maximizing drilling performance. Also, it
has become necessary for drilling oil/gas/geothermal wells in order to optimize surface drilling
parameters and to reduce downhole dynamics while drilling. Operating a drillstring above or below
the critical speed will denitely reduce vibrations and the probability of premature catastrophic failure of
downhole components. Hence, it is necessary to carry out pre-drilling analysis as well as real time
analysis of drillstring dynamics.
The complexity of the drilling phenomenon makes it impractical to derive models having worldwide
acceptability. Modeling the entire drillstring system and validating the results using the laboratory
experiments or the eld data have been the best practice. Most of the times, the parameters affecting the
model's sensitivity are either unknown or insufciently studied during the modeling which makes the
study more challenging. The rst part of the current review article summarizes the work carried out by
the researcher in the eld of modeling and controlling torsional vibrations. The second part highlights
the experimental studies carried out in laboratories in order to reproduce modes of vibrations in the
laboratory. Based on the past development, further efforts can be outlined in this eld in order to
improve the quality of reproduction of torsional vibrations in the laboratory. The present article reviews
the information which needs to be considered while modeling a complete drilling system and developing
a laboratory model to reproduce torsional vibrations.

1. Introduction
Drillstring is under dynamic loading while drilling a hole which
results in vibration. Vibration is dened as a to and fro movement
which is the manifestation of the oscillatory behavior in the
drillstring. Drillstring has its own mass, certain stiffness and

The concept of active damping of self excited torsional drillstring with feedback control in the drive system originates from
Halsey et al. (1988). Attempt to mitigate torsional drillstring
vibration was done by Jansen and van den Steen (1995) and
Jansen et al. (1995) by developing active damping system for
drillstring driven by electric rotary drive and drillstring driven by
hydraulic top drive, shown in Fig. 2. This system makes the top
drive react to non-linear relationship between torque and angular
velocity of the bit vibrations. As soon as bit starts experiencing the
stickslip condition, the top drive system gets activated. The
drawback of both systems is that the drive system of the rig needs
to be changed completely, meaning rig need to be modied in
order to run the feedback control system. Kriesels et al. (1999)
proposed the soft torque rotary system (STRS) for preventing
torsional vibrations, mainly stickslip. Increased rate of penetration and bit life was observed after the development of STRS. Use
of vibration analysis software for BHA design and regular inspection of drillstring components also helped to improve overall
drilling performance. STRS also needs modication of rig top drive
system. Possible damage to drillstring could be answered with this
system but it does not take into account the overgauge holes,
inhomogeneous and hard formations (Fig. 3).
The work furthered by Dykstra et al. (2001) comprises bit
dynamic program which is coupled with drillstring dynamic
program to investigate drilling system performance more holistically. The equations of motion for the bit consist of six degrees of
freedom. Leine et al. (2002) studied extensively the behavior of
stickslip and whirl interaction in a drillstring. According to Leine
et al. (2002), nite element models provide quantitative information about the drillstring dynamics and some practical recommendations. FEM models are very complex with many degrees of
freedom and nonlinear large displacements which make it difcult
to study certain vibration phenomena occurring in the process. In
order to understand the dynamics downhole, models need to be
kept as simple as possible to give qualitative information. Understanding downhole forces, critical loads, critical rotary speeds,
integrating newly developed technology with drilling system
dynamic modeling and the formation modeling results in signicant improvement in overall drilling performance of the system
(Hood et al., 2001; Aadnoy and Huusgaard, 2002; Boyadjieff et al.,
2003; Hill et al., 2004; Maidla and Haci, 2004). Menand et al.
(2006) modeled the entire drillstring considering soft string and
stiff string models which were used together to determine the
torque and drag over the length of drillstring. The BHA and the

disc diameters were 20 mm and the whole string was rotated with
the speed of 180 rpm.
Downhole friction induces negative damping, which leads to
vibrations according to Mihajlovic et al. (2006). Mathematical
model was developed and then analyses were carried out on the
basis of theoretical stability and numerical bifurcation. In order to
compare the model results with the experiment, a setup was built.
The experimental setup allowed interaction between torsional and
lateral vibration, effect of dry friction and mass imbalance scenarios. The material selected for the string was steel with modulus of
elasticity of 2e11 N/m2. The length of string used was 1.47 m with
added mass of 0.45 kg at the end of the string. The string was
rotated from the top with the help of DC motor mounted on the
top as shown in Fig. 5. Experimental setup consists of a power
amplier, a DC motor, two rotational inertias interconnected with
a low stiffness string as a drillstring and braking mechanism at the
lower end to create stickslip. The experimental results showed
that two types of torsional vibrations appeared: (a) friction
induced torsional oscillations and (b) torsional vibrations due to
a coupling between torsional and lateral dynamics in the system.
An important observation made was that the normal force in the
frictional contact inuences the friction force in a complex way
which can induce higher negative damping for higher normal
forces giving rise to stickslip phenomena.
Raymond et al. (2008) developed a laboratory scaled drilling
facility to gain practical understanding of axial vibrations, and to
dene the best operational parameters in order to eliminate

drillstring axial vibrations. Research showed that rockbit interaction together with drillstring dynamics can be reproduced in the
laboratory using two approaches: (a) mechanical analog approach
and (b) model based control. Both the approaches demonstrate
necessity for addressing the effect of rock type, bit design, and drill
string properties on the stability of the drilling process. In mechanical analog approach vibrations are introduced in the system while
in model based control approach, drillstring dynamics with the
change in weight on bit were predicted using numerical models.
The experimentation is limited to the axial model of vibrations only.
This experiment actually drills the rock formation in laboratory
giving a good insight of response of drill bit/formation interaction
and dynamics of drillstring as shown in Figs. 6 and 7. The model
based control system was capable of reproducing the laboratory
dynamics and it was used to predict the axial displacement of the
bit. Feedback response from the control system to the drillstring
actuator proved to be faster for higher frequencies vibrations in a
drillstring.
Further experimental investigation in this eld was done by
Khulief and Al-Sulaiman (2009). Previously studying the impact of
drillstring with wellbore and the dynamics of drillstring together,
which results in high frequency excitations, the impact model was
developed considering the material properties and damping
coefcients which was integrated with dynamic model of whole
the drillstring. The Lagrange approach was used to derive dynamic
models of a drillstring. The model takes into account torsional
bending coupling and axialbending nonlinear coupling. Time
response of drillstring system was calculated. Laboratory investigation of drillstring dynamics involves a test rig which can
simulate stick slip, string/wellbore contact, and drilling uid
interaction, Fig. 8(a) and (b). The setup consists of a steel frame,
a DC motor, stainless steel vertical shaft as a drillstring ranging
from 1 to 2 m in length and 0.3 to 1.0 cm in diameter, and Plexiglas
pipe as a wellbore containing uid. Magnetic tension brake was
used to simulate the stickslip while shaker excited the drillstring
axially, as shown in Fig. 8(d). The string was rotated with
the speeds ranging from 50 to 1000 rpm. It is necessary to build
such sophisticated dynamic models in laboratory in order to
investigate coupling modes of vibrations which are difcult to
model and challenging to predict analytically (Khulief and AlSulaiman, 2009).
Canudas-de-Wit et al. (2008a, 2008b) concluded that using an
adaptation law, named D-OSKILL, the stickslip can be effectively

eliminated without requiring a re-design of the top drive, drillstring design, etc.. To prove this, Lu et al. (2009) constructed an
experimental facility to reproduce stickslip vibrations in laboratory. Fig. 9(a)(d) shows the laboratory setup which is composed
of DC motor (M2) with inbuilt rotary speed sensor, transmission
box connecting the motor and the rotary table, drillstring, quadrature encoder, and a bit. Rotary table is a large inertia disc
coupled with the drillstring. Drillstring is made of small tubes
having low rotational stiffness of 0.6706 N m/rad. The model used
during this study is a two degrees of freedom model with two
inertial masses. The parameters from the setup such as motor
inertia, inertia of the mass, damping coefcients were identied
before the experiment. The oscillation frequency was found be to
around 3.2 Hz and thus the chosen speed was 20 rad/s. The
nominal WOB used was 180 N for both the experiments such as
with and without D-OSKILL. As concluded in simulation results the
WOB is recovered to the nominal values when stickslip is
eliminated; it has been validated by Canudas-de-Wit et al.
(2008a, 2008b), during their experiments too. Also observed the
ROP with D-OSKILL was smaller without D-OSKILL due to the loss
of optimal WOB; but the stickslip oscillations were effectively
mitigated.
In order to prove the drilling response model developed on the
basis of literature, Franca (2010) performed several laboratory
tests using in-house designed and built drilling rig, see Fig. 10. The
upper assembly consists of a geared brushless servomotor as a top
drive and a linear actuator on the top of the frame. The drilling rig
itself has the ability to provide a precise ROP from 0.01 mm/s to
100 mm/s. The drill bit assembly consists of a roller cone bit, a drill
shaft and an anvil. The core drive mechanism, at the bottom of the
assembly, consists of a geared brushless servomotor and a lathe
chuck. The main difference from the conventional drilling rigs is
that the core drive mechanism drives the rock sample at a
controlled angular velocity which ranges from 10 to 400 rpm.
Small scale vibration test rigs were designed and built also by
Forster et al. (2010) in order to reproduce lateral and torsional
vibrations, separately. The main purpose of their study was to
understand and quantify the behavior of an asymmetric vibration
damping tool (AVDT). For the testing of AVDT, the tests comprised
a lateral vibration rig and a torsional vibration rig. Rigs use a DC
drive motor, and a steel rod of diameter 5 mm and length of
2000 mm. The unsupported length of steel rod ranges from
250 mm to 2000 mm. To replicate WOB acting on the string,
compressive loading weights of 1 kg, 1.5 kg and 3.5 kg were used,
see Fig. 11(a) and (b). The torsional vibration rig included an inertia
wheel to replicate the top drive, and inertia wheel to replicate BHA
and 1 mm diameter high tensile steel wire to represent drillstring.
The bit is located at the BHA contacting a steel bore and the
diameter is 8 mm, see Fig. 11. Both the rigs were powered using 0
30 V DC supply and nominal operating speed of the drive motors
at 12 V was 400 rpm, depending on the load. The lateral test rig
was equipped with an accelerometer to measure the shocks
occurring between the drillstring and the borehole.
Forster (2011) has used axial loads as a means of mitigating
stickslip vibrations. The experiment uses the same rig as
designed in Forster et al. (2010) with few modications. Drillstring
used during the experiment is a high tensile wire of 1250 mm
length. The torsional stiffness of the wire was varied by tensioning
the string. Pre-test includes load of about 11.5 kg and with no
lubrication at the bit and weights attached. Axial excitation was
generated by using two DC solenoids which uses variable amplitude alternating single phase power supply as shown in Fig. 12.
The frequency range for the test was restricted to 515 Hz to be
consistent with downhole tools and minimizing over heating of
solenoids. Maximum WOB for axial excitation applied was 20 N
including BHA weight and tension in a string. It was concluded
that the axial excitation of the string successfully minitated stick
slip vibrations (Forster, 2011).

experimental rig has the capacity of applying 80 kg WOB on a drill
bit of 23 in. in size. The rig can handle a 52.4 cm long drillstring
of 4 cm in diameter and can rotate it up to 360 rpm. Rock samples
used during the experiments were of the dimensions 30
30 30 cm3. In order to record all the vibrations anticipated by
the drillstring, a vibration sensor sub, Fig. 13(b), is mounted
directly onto the drillstring. Experimental results show that
increasing the WOB and rotary speed increases the ROP. It has
also been observed that keeping WOB constant and by reducing
rotary speed, drillstring vibrations as well as ROP decreases.
Table 2 below summarizes all the above mentioned experimental studies on reproducing modes of vibration in the laboratory which have been tabulated.

5. Conclusion
Lacking capabilities in previous laboratory studies need to be
evaluated in order to build a state-of-the-art laboratory facility and
keeping holistic approach at the same time. Consideration of all
possible factors which affects drillstring dynamics in reality and
reproducing these factors in laboratory will make this facility, one
of its kinds for the analysis of downhole dynamics. The facility will
reproduce the vertical drilling wellbore in order to investigate the
bit induced torsional vibrations and in future will be modied to
investigate the drillstring induced torsional vibrations inuencing
factors such as high-hole angle, wellbore undulation, wellbore
quality, etc. Adaptive controlling algorithm could then be developed for mitigating the torsional oscillations/stickslip while
drilling and optimizing rate of penetration using the vibration
data. An innovative controller can integrate the adaptive controlling algorithms which will use the real time measured data to
predict narrow window of optimum operating parameters in order
to have a control over all possible vibration modes. Before
implementing for real time operations, verication and rigorous
testing of such control systems for their stability and robustness
using the experimental setup cannot be ignored.
