Chairs: Justin Kitchen, Arc Resources; Mitch Schinnour, ConocoPhillips; Jonathan Ng, Petronas 

This session will examine casing deformation in Canadian unconventional plays, focusing on geomechanical, operational, and geological drivers. Technical discussions will cover current mitigation strategies, including wellbore design and completion practices, as well as diagnostic and predictive tools used to assess and manage deformation risk. Emphasis will be placed on data-driven approaches and field applications to improve well integrity and reduce intervention costs.
