Noetic’s Dr. Jarek Nowinka presented SPE Paper 119468, “New Standard for Evaluating Casing Connections for Thermal Well Applications”. This paper contains an overview of the philosophy and structure of the new evaluation protocol, and illustrates how engineering analysis, numerical simulation, and reduced-scale physical testing were used in the protocol development to examine impacts of various design and loading variables on connection performance under loads typical of thermal well service.
