2D and 3D Geomechanical Numerical Simulation for Evaluating Well-Stability and Reservoir Consolidation during the Production from the HYDRATE P1 Well on the Alaska North Slope

Abstract Methane hydrate production via depressurization can induce geomechanical changes in hydrate-bearing sediments, thereby impacting production performance and risking subsidence and wellbore instability. Here, a fully coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical simulator (COTHMA) is ap...
