The book starts with a review of optimum drilling practices, which provide for highest rate of penetration (ROP) atminimum footage cost ($/ft). These elements of drilling providea backdrop for in-depth technical discussions. Discussions arepresented with scientific rigor, but in a form easily understoodby undergraduate engineering and graduate students.Homework problems are included at the end of each chapterand are designed to encourage interest and enquiry. The bookcan be used as an industry reference or as a university textbook.The book underscores the application of engineering principlesto drilling problems facing industry. Special attention is givento: 1) drilling hydraulics, including performance and applicationof PDM motors and turbines, 2) drillstring design and operation, 3) drillstring mechanics including vibration analysis and control, 4) drilling economics, 5) maintenance and reliability, and6) directional drilling including bit navigation, well pathmonitoring and directional control. Each topic is explained interms of engineering mechanics.
