A repository of open-source drilling models, test cases, and benchmarks for deep drilling problems. Models are distributed under the MIT license and are provided as-is and free of charge.
Version 0.1 was released on September 1, 2021. Additional models are being added regularly.

WOB Transfer and Buckling Data Analytics – Ysabel Witt-Doerring – May 16th, 2022
In this talk, Ysabel will present surface and downhole data from a particularly difficult horizontal well in Oklahoma that presented challenges with weight transfer and drillability. -
Stick slip vibrations in drilling: modeling, estimation, avoidance – Jean Auriol and Florent Di Meglio – April 25th, 2022
In this talk, we present some recent developments for estimating and controlling the torsional motion of a drilling device. We introduce first the stick-slip phenomenology and explain its physical causes. We present a mathematical distributed model that can accurately describe the torsional motion of the drilling device.
