Based on data collected by Transpac Managers over the past 30 years, we've seen a 33% increase in mechanical issues, leading to downhole losses, over the past two years.
- Mechanical sticking: the limiting or prevention of motion of the drillstring by anything other than differential pressure sticking. Mechanical sticking can be caused by junk in the hole, wellbore geometry anomalies, cement, keyseats, or a buildup of cuttings in the annulus.
- Differential sticking: typically occurs when high-contact forces caused by low reservoir pressures, high wellbore pressures, or both, are exerted over a sufficiently large area of the drillstring.
- Other: equipment failure, fire, blowout
