“…Besides drilling and well monitoring, MPD is used to maintain CBHP during tripping to eliminate swabbed kicks (Mammadov et al, 2015), and to perform dynamic formation integrity and dynamic pore pressure tests . Furthermore, several commonly experienced complications such as formation ballooning and partial loses are significantly reduced where elastic rock properties and high filtration rates increase the operational challenge, especially during connections and formation strength testing (Zhou et al, 2002;Zoback, 2007;Ameen et al, 2014aAmeen et al, , 2014bAmeen et al, , 2015Chen 2014aChen , 2014bChen , 2014c.…”
