RUNNING AND CEMENTING TUBING

摘要

A method of running a bore-lining tubing string into a bore includes running a tubing string, typically a liner string, into a bore while agitating the string. The agitation of the string reduces the friction between the string and the bore wall and thus facilitates the translation of the string into the bore. The agitation may also take place while the tubing is being cemented in the bore. Pressure pulses may be applied to fluid in the bore, which fluid may be cement slurry.
