Internal wear of casing as a result of drilling and workover operations has been an
ongoing concern in oil and gas field development. Accurate casing wear prediction
is crucial for well integrity to reduce field development costs associated with casing,
especially in deep and/or long, deviated or horizontal wells.
Reduced strength of casing, especially collapse strength, represents a safety
hazard that can lead to well control problems and even blowouts. Operators may
not realize the risk of casing wear until a catastrophe occurs. Additionally, the
cost of repairing worn casing is usually high, exponentially so in the case of a well
control situation.
CasingWear™ software, an innovative new Landmark application, provides a
comprehensive solution to casing wear assessment. This application addresses
industry needs regarding enhanced casing wear modeling techniques applied to
actual drilling scenarios. A key component in this method is the stiff string model,
which helps estimate drillstring contact position at any given casing depth and
calculates more precise contact loads than previously achievable by accounting
for bending stiffness of the drillstring. CasingWear improves the accuracy of casing
wear prediction, making casing design more cost effective.

Accurate casing wear prediction
CasingWear reduces uncertainties caused by inconsistent application of the casing
wear model. Accurate wear prediction is crucial for well integrity to reduce field
development cost associated with casing, especially when drilling and completing
complex sidetracks, multi-laterals or long horizontal wells.
Simple user interface for better, faster interpretation
The user interface provides a simple approach to input data and powerful graphical
visualization capabilities to interpret it faster and more accurately. The output driving
input methodology identifies required data and provides hyperlinks to the appropriate
input panel. Users simply click on hyperlinks and input the required data, and the
application does the rest. The interactive wellbore schematic provides visual feedback
throughout. Users can conduct fast and accurate analysis that helps make better
decisions. New users can be trained quickly.

Well engineering integration

The application interacts with the entire Landmark suite of drilling applications
for other specific drilling, casing and cost analysis throughout the Engineer’s Data
Model™ (EDM™) platform, the industry’s most comprehensive and proven well data
management solution. The applications can operate in a stand-alone or multi-user
environment enabling users to scale from a single user to a corporate-wide system.

Interactive wellbore representation

Results are displayed graphically as part of an interactive wellbore representation
making interpretation easy to visualize and understand. These results include a 3D
visualization of drillstring position; casing contact points and wear intensity per
drilling operation; a wellbore casing cross section of multi-groove distribution from
0° to 360° degrees; and a time-depth plot of wear percentage and multiple XY plots
and tabular results.

Stiff string model

Apply WELLPLAN™, recognized torque and drag models, soft string for conven-
tional casing wear analysis or the advanced stiff string model for more accurate
contact loads, estimating contact position of the drillstring at any given casing
depth. These contact points are used to model development of multiple wear
groove locations at any casing depth cross-section by accounting for fluctuating
contact positions as various operations are performed through casing. Estimation
of multiple groove positions at each cross-section reduces the overestimation of
casing wear as wear is now distributed across different grooves.

Drilling operations and casing wear risk awareness
Incremental or cumulative casing wear modeling of planned drilling events
(including drilling, backreaming, rotating off bottom, sliding and reciprocation)
applied to the analysis of time vs. wear percent and total revolutions can determine
proximity of predefined wear limits during subsequent drilling operations or how
many revolutions to reach the wear limit during well planning.
Single, multiple or DEA42 wear factors
Specify user-defined single- or multiple-wear factors along the casing or drillstring.
Alternatively, select from DEA42 or a user-defined wear factor table to predict, using
a linear casing wear model, the linear or non-linear wear factors, casing wear volume,
wear percentage and corresponding casing groove depth, and remaining casing
wall thickness.
Casing burst and collapse strength
Obtain remaining casing burst or collapse strength applying API or linear rating equations.
Casing wear mitigation
Apply stand-off devices (pipe protectors, hard-banding) and corresponding wear
factors to manage casing contact point, side forces and casing wear in critical
wellbore intervals, or apply sensitivity analysis of wear factor or other drilling
parameters (including WOB, RPM, dogleg severity overrides) and drilling scenarios
(riser offset or riserless offset) to investigate their impact on casing wear.
An interactive wellbore representation makes casing wear data interpretation easy to visualize and understand.
