Experimental study of the D-OSKIL mechanism for controlling the stick-slip oscillations in a drilling laboratory testbed
Résumé
The presence of harmful stick-slip oscillations in oil well drillstrings has attracted the attention of the control community in recent years. The control law named D-OSKIL mechanism which uses the weight on the bit (WoB) force as an additional control variable to extinguish limit cycles has been investigated. This paper reports experimental implementation of such a mechanism, in a laboratory testbed. We also provide details of the experimental process and the obtained drilling performance. Results show that the stick-slip oscillations can be effectively suppressed by this mechanism.
