There exist several salt rock formations in the world today which store a substantial amount of oil, being a great asset to the petroleum industry. The pre-salt basins off the coast of Brazil have been a primary focus due to the challenges they provide in oil drilling. Unlike most formations, salt rock exhibits creep behavior where, once the drilling has been performed, the rock begins to relieve itself from the applied stress by closing gradually with time. This may lead to cases of well collapse and well abandonment, creating an economical issue to oil drillers. Well cementing is always seeked to be performed with excellence, caution and thoroughness. Nevertheless, an unevenly distributed cement job complicates the analysis for engineers to model and predict its behavior. A well-cemented casing is not always achieved in deepwater wells. Geometry and size greatly influence the stresses on the defected area. Hence, it is important that the cement and salt formation be fully understood in order to make rational engineering decisions. The focus of this research study is to attain a deeper understanding of poorly-cemented offshore wells subjected to non-uniform salt loading. A finite element model was generated by the commercial software program Abaqus to implement simulations and analyses of various failure scenarios.
