Hole Spirall<strong>in</strong>g – Introduction<br />
‣ Hole spirall<strong>in</strong>g exists <strong>in</strong> most wells<br />
‣ Pitch, amplitude, drift, gauge – key parameters<br />
‣ Negatively impacts drill<strong>in</strong>g <strong>and</strong> completion operations<br />
‣ Usually can be detected from logs<br />
‣ Effects more pronounced <strong>in</strong> horizontal / ERD wells<br />
‣ Long gauge bits – tend to help reduce spirall<strong>in</strong>g
