Tectonic stress and effects on oil and gas drilling activities
Abstract
The World Stress Map (WSM) Project is a collaborative project between academia, industries and governments to build a comprehensive global database of stress information to better understand the state and sources of current tectonic stress in the lithosphere. The paper analyses the impact of tectonic stress on oil and gas drilling activities, thereby proposing solutions to minimising the negative impact of tectonic stress on the drilling process.
