Breakouts of wells: Dynamic interpretations and applications to drilling in the Vaca Muerta formation, Neuquén Basin.

The break-out is the two-dimensional expression perpendicular to the axis of the well of the current tensional state of the rock developed during its drilling. This two-dimensional expression may not be constant throughout the development of the well since variations due to changes in the tectosedim...

description The break-out is the two-dimensional expression perpendicular to the axis of the well of the current tensional state of the rock developed during its drilling.
