The assessment of the wellbore stress state is extremely important in order to prevent accidents during construction and production phases. The methodology used in the models must be closer to reality, representing the wellbore lifespan operations, and consequently, enhancing the reliability of the wellbore. Thus, an analytical solution is developed using a methodology capable of simulating some of the main steps of the wellbore operations. In this methodology, the temperature and the pore pressure variations are considered. Besides that, it is used the assumption of circular and vertical wellbore under uniform loads, considering the elastic behavior of the materials. The analytical solution is developed using Bradley equation during the drilling step and Lamé equation during the construction and production steps. Therefore, the stresses after each step are calculated using the radial displacement compatibility between the surfaces in contact. This same methodology is used in the finite element model. Based on two case studies, the results obtained by the analytical and numerical solutions are compared. The first case study represents a wellbore in the North Sea while the second, a wellbore in a field in Santos Basin, Brazil. In both case studies, the radial and tangential stresses are presented for the casings, the cements and the formation, as well as the yield index in the casings and the cements. In the second case study, two depths are assessed: in the reservoir, considering one casing, and in a shallow depth, with two casings. In these two case studies, the results from the analytical and the numerical solutions are equal. Therefore, the analytical solution is validated as an alternative to assess the stresses in ideal wellbores.
