“…These studies have often examined the mechanical and operational factors influencing stick-slip, such as weight on bit (WOB), rotary speed (RPM), drilling fluid properties, bit type, and geological formations. Researchers have developed mathematical models, conducted laboratory experiments, and analyzed field data to better understand the causes and effects of stick-slip behavior [14][15][16].…”

“…Stick-slip calculations are intricate and frequently use mathematical models to comprehend and anticipate this phenomenon [14]. Solving a group of partial differential equations (PDEs) that characterize the dynamic behavior of the drill string is often required to arrive at the generalized mathematical equation for models of stick-slip vibrations.…”

The critical factors that affect bottomhole stick–slip vibrations during vertical drilling operations are thoroughly investigated and analyzed in this research. Influential factors, such as rotation speed, weight on bit (WOB), bottom hole assembly (BHA) configuration, and formation properties, were studied in order to understand their part in the stick–slip phenomena. The analysis is based on a thorough review of previous research conducted on stick–slip drilling vibrations. A mathematical model was created that not only explains axial vibrations but also includes the torsional vibrations present in stick–slip occurrences, which helps with understanding the stick–slip phenomena better. This model can be used as an analytical tool to predict and evaluate the behavior of drilling systems under various operational circumstances. Furthermore, two drilling tests using a WellScan simulator were performed to validate the research findings and assess mitigation techniques’ viability. These test scenarios reflect the stick–slip vibration-producing situations, allowing us to test mitigation strategies. The finding of this study shows the effectiveness of two tactics for reducing stick–slip vibrations. First was the reduction of WOB, which successfully lowered the occurrence of stick–slip vibrations. The second was the increase in the rotation speed, which helped to control the stick–slip problem and increased the drilling speed. This study explains the complex dynamics of stick–slip vibrations during vertical drilling and offers practical, tried-and-true methods for reducing their adverse effects on drilling operations.

Optimization of drilling processes for oil and gas and geothermal wells requires the effective use of mechanical energy for the destruction of rocks. When constructing a well, an important indicator of the drilling stage is the mechanical speed. Therefore, when performing drilling operations, operators usually use blade bits of an aggressive design and often use forced drilling modes. Drill bits under forced operation modes generate a wide range of vibrations in the drilling tools; in turn, a drill string, being a long-dimensional deformable body, causes the development, amplification, and interconnection of vibrations of different types. Vibration loads reduce the technical and economic indicators of drilling, with destructive effects on drill string elements, and cause complications and emergencies. The authors initiated the creation of an informational and analytical database on emergency situations that occurred as a result of excessive vibrations of the drill string during the construction of deep wells in the deposits of the Dnipro–Donetsk Basin. For the first time, the suitability and effectiveness of using the Smart 4 controller (“Innova Power Solutions”, Calgary, Canada) for monitoring the vibration load of the drilling tool was tested in industrial conditions, while the controller was used as a separate element in the drill string. A special module was developed for the reliable installation of the Smart 4 controller, with a power battery in the layout of the lower part of the drill string. During the testing of the proposed device for measuring vibrations in the process of drilling an inclined well, verification of the registered data was carried out with the help of a high-cost telemetry system. The implementation of the proposed innovation will allow each operator to assess the significance of the impact of vibrations and shocks on the production process and, if necessary, adjust the drilling modes or apply vibration protection devices. In addition, service departments that operate and repair drilling equipment will be able to obtain an evidence base for resolving warranty disputes or claims.
