Abstract:
Thread connections are widely used in oil and gas industry. Determination of under which this thread may leak is very crucial for drilling operation continuity.
In this thesis finite element software (ABAQUS) has been used to simulate the base case scenario of X well tool joint and the conditions, of failure has been determined.
From the analysis, leak was found on thread connection and the main reason were high displacement due to internal pressure and also high deformation strain. And a suggestion has been made according to the results.
