Abstract

With the prolonged production term and the stimulation of the oil well in oil-field, the load which results from the in-situ stress is one of the main reasons to the casing damage. Taking the casing in Cementing section, the cement and the rock surrounding the cement into consideration, a mechanical model is established, while analytical solutions of displacement and stress distribution is obtained. The finite element method is adopted to obtain the numerical solutions of the mechanics model. The result shows that analytical solutions and finite element solutions are approximate. Finite element model of casing/cement/formation which is established in the paper can be used to analyze the load and stress distribution of worn casing with non-uniform in-situ stress.
