Shale gas well casing deformation failure is extremely serious in complex fracturing process. Based on the elastic mechanics theory, the distribution law of casing’s maximum equivalent stress field with the non uniform external extrusion is calculated by the complex variable function method. Meanwhile, casing deformation failure mechanism with non uniform external extrusion is revealed. For another, the maximum equivalent stress of the casing is analyzed with the case of a/b=2 and a/b=5. The result shows that the unevenness of the extrusion load has a great influence on the casing maximum equivalent stress distribution. The findings provide technical support for casing design and selection in complex fracturing process of shale gas well.
