The present paper studies the dependence of the dynamic oscillatory movements in the area of drill string sticking on the parameters of vibrating mechanism and place of its installation in the heavy weight drill pipe. The authors focus specifically on conditions responsible for resonant vibrations excitation in the drill string, which facilitates the release of stuck drill pipe. The aim is to use the results of the research in the development of the method for vibrator application, to work out recommendations concerning the choice of its installation place in the heavy weight drill pipe, its tuning to the resonant frequency, the choice of induced force amplitude. Methods. The authors proposed a mathematical model of the drill string functioning with vibration mechanism installed into the heavy weight drill pipe. The vibrator is needed to eliminate sticking of the drilling tool. The suggested discrete-continuum model which takes wave processes into account allows to conduct grounded experimental research. Findings. The developed mathematical model served as the basis for designing a computer program aimed to visualize oscillatory processes taking place in the string of pipes, and to calculate basic dynamic and kinematic characteristics of the analyzed system. Frequency oscillation spectrum was calculated for the selected layout of the drill string and the resonant amplitudes at these frequencies. Originality. The proposed technique allows to significantly determine strains, stresses and safety margins in the arbitrary drill string section more accurately and to predict its sticking while drilling oil and gas boreholes. Practical implications. A specific method of selecting a place for the vibrator installation was elaborated. Recommendations concerning the choice of installation site, amplitude of excitation force, resonant frequencies for elimination of pipes’ sticking and prevention of drill strings destruction are provided.

ABSTRACT
Purpose. The present paper studies the dependence of the dynamic oscillatory movements in the area of drill string
sticking on the parameters of vibrating mechanism and place of its installation in the heavy weight drill pipe. The
authors focus specifically on conditions responsible for resonant vibrations excitation in the drill string, which facili-
tates the release of stuck drill pipe. The aim is to use the results of the research in the development of the method for
vibrator application, to work out recommendations concerning the choice of its installation place in the heavy weight
drill pipe, its tuning to the resonant frequency, the choice of induced force amplitude.
Methods. The authors proposed a mathematical model of the drill string functioning with vibration mechanism installed
into the heavy weight drill pipe. The vibrator is needed to eliminate sticking of the drilling tool. The suggested discrete-
continuum model which takes wave processes into account allows to conduct grounded experimental research.
Findings. The developed mathematical model served as the basis for designing a computer program aimed to visual-
ize oscillatory processes taking place in the string of pipes, and to calculate basic dynamic and kinematic characteris-
tics of the analyzed system. Frequency oscillation spectrum was calculated for the selected layout of the drill string

Originality. The proposed technique allows to significantly determine strains, stresses and safety margins in the arbi-
trary drill string section more accurately and to predict its sticking while drilling oil and gas boreholes.
Practical implications. A specific method of selecting a place for the vibrator installation was elaborated. Recom-
mendations concerning the choice of installation site, amplitude of excitation force, resonant frequencies for elimina-
tion of pipes’ sticking and prevention of drill strings destruction are provided.

1. INTRODUCTION
Drilling engineers pay great attention to the trouble-
free drilling of oil and gas wells. It is explained by costly
and long-term maintenance works aimed to liquidate
breakdowns especially those caused by sticking of drill-
ing tool, which occur far more often than other accidents
(Wen, Chen, & Dong, 2014).
Stuck-pipe problems are still considered (Bodine, 1994)
as potentially dangerous, despite a great number of publica-
tions, developed modern drilling technologies and methods
for prevention of drill string (DS) sticking. Thereby, one
cannot underestimate the importance of elaborating new
technological solutions and appropriate techniques for the
stuck DS retrieval (Houlbrook & Lyon, 2006).
Current methods of solving stuck-pipe problems are
based on the use of physical, mechanical and hydraulic
impact on the sticking zone (Liu, Wang, Li, & Xu, 2011).
It leads to weakening of wall rock pressure forces be-
cause of rock dissolution, and, consequently, reduction of
friction. Hydraulic methods are based on the alteration of

hydraulic pressure in the accident zone by way of regu-
lating hydro-statistic pressure component, or forming
hydraulic waves of the drilling mud. Mechanical meth-
ods are based on creation of vibration disturbance, a
shock or explosive loading, applied in the zone of DS
sticking (Abraham & Marsden, 2008).
A considerable amount of experimental researches
and engineering tests have proved that the mechanical
methods are especially effective. One of the most ad-
vanced methods of retrieving stuck DS is the use of vi-
bration mechanisms, given simplicity of their design.
These devices allow to realize a big variety of operation-
al modes, beginning from excitation of disturbing forces
to selection of vibration mechanism’ parameters (Bailey
& Gupta, 2008). Moreover, vibrators are very durable.
2. MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF ELASTIC WAVES
EMITTED BY A DRILL PIPE WITH A VIBRATOR
Mechanical scheme of DS with a vibrating mecha-
nism can be represented by a discrete-continuous sys-
tem comprising six sections (Fig. 1).
Figure 1. Drill string with built-in vibrator
It will examine the dynamic characteristics of the DS
vibrator, built in heavy weight drill pipe (HWDP). The
first section is composed of cylindrical steel pipes made
of steel with density ρ1 = 7869,5 kg/m3, outside diameter
D1 = 127 mm, inside diameter d1 = 107 mm and the total
length l1 = 1400 m. The second section is a part of
HWDP located above the vibrator, the third section is
located below the vibrator. The stuck part of the DS is
also divided into three sections: the fourth loose area
above the sticking zone, fifth the stuck part of DS, sixth
loose area located below the sticking zone.
The length of the heavy weight drill pipe is
l2 + l3 = 130 m, and the length of the stuck drill pipe
l4 + l5 + l6 = 40 m. These pipes are made of steel with densi-
ty ρ1 = 7759 kg/m3, outside diameter Di = 177,8 mm and
inside diameter d1 = 71,4 mm, i = 2 – 6. The vibrator in-
stalled in the heavy weight drill pipe. Its location is de-
termined by the length of the second section
0 < l2 < 130 m.
The mathematical model for the proposed scheme of
the drill string describes dynamic processes in DS. Ac-
cording to the theory of elasticity (Giovine, 2012), wave
differential equations for the cross-cuts of each section
can be written as:

Moving parts of the hoisting system are presented by

Next, we have to attach boundary conditions at the
ends and docking sections of DS to the dynamic equations
of the drill string motion (Han, Kim & Karkoub, 2014):

Since at the initial time ( 0t ) all cross-cuts of the

Since the differential equations (1) are constantly in-
homogeneous equations of the second kind (Kelly,
2008), the stationary solutions have the form of a quad-
ratic expression. Static deformations of the current DS
cross-cuts, satisfying the system of equations (1) and

Stationary solutions (15) testify that elastic motions of
DS cross-cuts depend on the physical characteristics of the
hoisting system and drill pipes, forces of dry friction (μ)
and the density of fluids patch (q). They define the loca-
tion, length and integrated power of rock pressure on DS.
If the elastic deformation in some cross-cut starts to de-
crease, it shows that DS mobility is limited and there is
propability of sticking occurence. By changing the density
of drilling fluid we can reduce the sticking force and the
intensity of rock pressure or the sticking length. Equations
(15) completely determine the efficiency of breakdown
elimination by this method. However, if implementation of
this technique in practice fails, it becomes necessary to use
mechanical methods (Velten, 2009).
Given the stationary solutions (15) a system of ho-
mogeneous differential equations was obtained:

The solution of the equation system (16) is compli-
cated by the fact that the boundary conditions (17) are
inhomogeneous because they contain a non-stationary
component – a disturbing force P(t). First it is necessary
to find such special function φi (xi, t), i = 1 – 6, so as to
ensure homogeneous boundary conditions for new un-
known functions wi (xi, t). After selecting special func-
tions, the sought-for dynamic movements of DS cross-
cuts uid (xi, t) must be shifted to φi (xi, t).

Functions φi (xi, t), describe additional components of
DS forced oscillations (Maugin, 2007). They should
ensure homogeneous boundary conditions for functions
wi (xi, t) and are completely defined by inhomogeneous
boundary conditions (17):

The obtained laws of motion indicate that the disturb-
ing force P(t) excites vibrations below the vibrator instal-
lation zone. Equations (21) describe forced components
of drill pipes cross-cuts oscillations, excited by vibration
force P(t). For the purpose of the research we assumed
vibration force to be harmonic P(t) = Asin(ωt + γ).
Thus, the general boundary problem for functions
uid (xi, t) is reduced to the problem with homogeneous
boundary conditions:

To find a non-trivial solution to the system of inho-
mogeneous equations (16) related to system (23) We will
use the Fourier’s method according to which the DS
cross-cuts moving will be expressed by the product:
, , 1 6,i i i i iw x t X x T t i (25)
where:
i iX x the function of the current cross-cut;
iT t the function of the current time.
After substituting relationships (25) into homogene-
ous dynamic equations which relate to (23), we received
a differential equations system of the current cross-cut
functions:

2 0i i k i iX x a p X x , 2,3i ; (26)
2 2

with the following non-trivial solutions to i iX x :

Frequency equation (28) is transcendent and has an
unlimited number of solutions, so the frequency spec-
trum pk ( 1, ,k ) of DS sections natural oscillations
is aliquant in character. It should also be noted that the
DS frequency value depends on the parameters of all
sections of the drill string and the multiple mass and
rigidity of the hoisting system. The mathematical model
of DS with a vibrating device built in HWDP was com-
piled to conduct parametric research (Fitzgibbon, Kuz-
netsov, Neittaanmäki, & Pironneau, 2014). This model
allowed to calculate with reasonable accuracy movement
and speed of DS cross-cuts, amplitude-frequency, phase-
frequency and dynamic characteristics of the drill string,
excited by the vibrating mechanism. For the selected DS
layout we calculated the frequency spectrum of free
oscillations, the first ten of which are presented in Ta-
ble 1 (Heinz, 2011).

In general, the frequency spectrum of DS natural os-
cillations is very wide, and the generated wave propa-
gates along the pipe string and is transferred to the place
of drill pipes’ sticking.
Free oscillations can be amplified by the excitation of
forced resonance oscillations by the vibrating device. With
an accuracy to an arbitrary multiplier equal to one, natural
frequencies pk are related to their own functions:

Next, let us determine the time function

and the initial conditions (24). Let us decompose the right
parts of differential equations system (23) and the initial
conditions (24) at intervals (0, li) on their own functions
(29) according to Styeklov’s decomposition theorem:

As a result, the system of inhomogeneous dynamic

So, moving of drill string cross-cuts (35) includes
four components:
– stationary, which is determined by the parameters of
the hoisting system, the drill string tension, pipes weight
and drilling fluid density, viscous resistance power, and
rock pressure on the DS stuck part . This component fully
determines the location, length and strength of sticking;
– forced oscillations with the frequency of the exciting
force and the amplitude, which depends on DS parame-
ters, vibrator location in the heavy weight drill pipe and
the amplitude of the disturbing force. Such fluctuations
have the shape of standing waves and reach maximum
amplitude the middle points of the sections. These waves
do not transfer energy from the vibrator to the DS sticking
place, but only convert kinetic energy into potential;
– inherent attenuating oscillations consisting of the
sum of aliquant harmonics;
– forced oscillations with the frequency of the exciting
force and the amplitude, which depends on DS parame-
ters, vibrator location in the heavy weight drill pipe and
natural DS frequencies, as well as the amplitude of the
disturbing force. Such oscillations have the shape of trav-
eling waves that spread energy in the DS. It is possible to
enhance efficiency of energy transfer by tuning the vibra-
tor to the resonance – one of the DS natural frequencies.
(Bailey & Gupta, 2008).
4. MATERIALS UNDER ANALYSIS
Using mathematical modeling for the selected layout
of the DS, we designed and built graphs for all compo-
nents of drill pipes cross-cuts displacements (Kelly,
2008). Figure 2 shows elastic deformations of the drill
pipe cross-cut above the DS sticking zone.
Figure 2. Static movement of the loose part of the drilling pipe
Figure 2 demonstrates that the extended cross-cut
u4 (0, t) begins to shrink as it approaches the accident
zone u4 (l4, t) = u4 (0, t) . Integral values of the sticking
force and sticking length can be calculated from equa-
tions (15), taking into account the parameters of DS,
hoisting system, and the physical properties of the drill-
ing fluid and friction forces.
If the resistance is viscous, as in the chosen layout,
simple oscillations attenuate exponentially (Fig. 3). The
rate of decrease in the amplitude of these oscillations is
determined by the logarithmic decrement of oscillations
2ik i i km p , which is determined by the viscosity
of drilling fluids. It should be noted that logarithmic
decrement of the first section oscillations Δ1max = 0.0004
is small compared to the logarithmic decrement of the
fourth section oscillations Δ4max = 0.15.
Figure 3. Standing waves when configuring the vibration
device on the first frequency of the drill string
Forced oscillations of the standing waves for the se-
lected DS layout were calculated for harmonic disturb-
ance P(t) = Asin(ωt + γ). with amplitude A = 1kN.
Figure 3 demonstrates standing waves when the vibra-
tor is configured to the first natural DS frequency, and
Figure 4 – to the fifth natural frequency. Thus, the fre-
quency increases with decreasing oscillation period.
For the studied drill string, the oscillations of stand-
ing waves were low amplitude, and therefore their influ-
ence φi(xi, t) on the drill string vibration ui(xi, t) can be
neglected.

device to the fifth frequency of the drill string
Figure 5 shows free oscillations of the first DS sec-
tion that slowly fade away as they approach the borehole
being close to a harmonious in character.
Figure 5. Simple oscillations of the first drill string section
Figure 6 and 7 show oscillations of HWDP that are
beginning to slowly attenuate, and Figure 8 presents
oscillations of the stuck drill pipe that attenuate rather
quickly.
Figure 6. Simple oscillations of the heavy weight drill pipe
above the vibrator installation location
Figure 7. Simple oscillations of the heavy weight drill pipe

The study into free oscillations has shown that
they quickly fade in the course of approaching the
accident zone.
Figure 8. Simple oscillations of the drill string stuck section
Forced oscillations of the heavy weight drill pipe
(Fig. 9) are multi-harmonious, but the intensity of the
stuck DS section oscillations decreases sharply with the
increase in resonance frequency.

Figure 10 shows resonance achieved by configuring
the vibrator to the first natural DS frequency, and Fig-
ure 11 – to the fifth natural frequency.

To analyze the setting up of the vibration mechanism
to natural DS frequency, we calculated the resonance
amplitudes (Table 2) of the forced oscillations in the
sticking place and constructed the amplitude-frequency
characteristic (Fig. 12).

Past studies have shown that the intensity of forced
oscillations increases with the approach of the installa-
tion site vibrator in HWDP to the accident.
To analyze the vibration mechanism setting up on
natural frequency DS calculated the resonance amplitude
(Table 2) forced oscillations in the place and constructed
stuck frequency response (Fig. 12).
Figure 12. Amplitude-frequency characteristics of the drill
string oscillations excited by the vibrator
Previous studies have shown that the intensity of
forced oscillations increases as the vibrator installation
place in HWDP approaches the accident zone (Table 3).
It is worth noting that along with the trend described
above, coefficient of the forced oscillations amplitude
transmission increases if the vibrator installation location
is moved in HWDP in the direction of the borehole.
An important dynamic condition of drilling tool
effective operation is instantaneous longitudinal forces
that arise in cross-cuts of drill pipes:
, ,i i i i i iP x t E F u x t , 1 4i , . (36)
Another important dynamic operational characteris-
tics is strength testing of all cross-cuts of DS.
, ,i i i i ix t E u x t , 1 4i , . (37)
Research into the force variations in drill pipes cross-
cuts showed that the vibrator installation locations
3 0,P t and 3 0, t are subjected to the greatest loads
and stresses excited by external vibration.
Amplitude values of these forces and stresses
(Fig. 13) for the selected DS layout grow when the vibra-
tor is set up to a higher natural DS frequency and sharply
fall when the vibrator is lowered along HWDP.

For effective elimination of sticking it was necessary
to study DS kinetic and potential energy as well as its

Figure 14. Energy characteristics of DS oscillations excited by
the vibrator on the first three resonant frequencies
For the selected layout of the drill string, kinetic en-
ergy of the stuck DS is 1.34 MJ and potential 2.18 MJ.
Studies have shown that energy curves have clearly de-
fined extremes (Fig. 14): the largest kinetic energy is
accumulated by DS in case of placing the vibrator at a
distance that is 0.36 HWDP length (Fig. 14), and maxi-
mum of potential energy in the middle of HWDP. Thus
kinetic energy constitutes only 5 – 10% of the potential
energy (Fig. 15).
Figure 15. Amplitudes of potential energy
So, it is more feasible to eliminate accidents at the
expense of DS elastic deformations that can be rein-
forced by the vibration device.
5. CONCLUSIONS
In this work we presented a discrete-continuum
mathematical model of a drill string with vibration
mechanism built into the HWDP. Based on the elaborat-
ed mathematical model we have developed a computer
program which helped us to visualize oscillatory pro-
cesses of the drill-string, as well as to carry out numerical
calculations of power and energy performance.

The obtained results were analyzed. The developed
model allows to promptly analyze and explain the choice
of vibration mechanism location, so as to provide fast
retrieving of the stuck drill string. Departing from the
aforementioned results, we elaborated the following
recommendations:
– the vibrator should be set up to one of its three natu-
ral frequencies;
– vibration device has to be situated at the distance
which is 0.35 0.5 of the HWDP length, starting from its
top. It will allow saving the biggest amount of potential
energy – elastic deformation of the bottom of the drill-
string loose part;
– in the case of setting up the vibration device to its
natural frequencies (higher than the third), the vibration
mechanism has to be located in HWDP as low as possi-
ble. This is because excited vibrations can cause destruc-
tion of drilling pipes;
– for every given layout of the drill-string we should
carry out numerical calculations that will allow to predict
any possible sticking, and also to choose location for the
vibration mechanism;
– we can use the given results for further research and
perfection of existing engineering methods of modeling
and calculation of drill-strings on the stage of their de-
signing and construction.
