Models

Comprehensive Models

Models of the complete drilling system, including topsides, coupled drillstring dynamics, hydraulics and bit-rock interaction.

Reduced-Order Models

Models of simplified dynamics that ignore couplings or are only valid for specific scenarios.

Component Models

Models of individual components of the surface or subsurface drilling system.

Model Integration

Best practices for integration of different models with varying time scales or spatial discretization.
