Session 8: Challenges and Solutions for Wells Drilling and Geomechanics

26 May 2027

Session Chairs: Vivian Marchesi, Baker Hughes

Well construction projects face a wide range of geological, operational, technical, and economic challenges. This session will provide a forum for discussing key issues encountered during the planning and execution of wells, including drilling performance, geomechanical uncertainty, well integrity, cost control, and emerging technologies. The objective is to share experiences and identify practical solutions that support safe and efficient well delivery.
