Abstract: The disclosure presents apparatuses and systems to reduce drag and friction forces on a drill string located downhole a borehole. The drill string can have two or more movement isolators to allow a movement sensitive tool to be movement isolated from other portions of the drill string that have powered movement. The other drill string portions can be powered by a surface equipment or by a downhole movement motor attached to the drill string, such as a rotational mud motor, an agitator, a jar motor, or a rotary steerable. Portions of the drill string located further downhole than the movement sensitive tool can utilize a movement motor attached to the drill string to provide movement to reduce drag and friction force where the movement isolators can reduce the movement force experienced by the movement sensitive tool.

Abstract: Various embodiments include apparatus and methods to perform a load analysis for multi-off-center tools. Off-center components of a completion string experience additional downhole side and drag forces due to contact with casing and liner walls which may lead to excessive loading and stresses leading to failures. Systems and techniques are provided to analyze such situations. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting a gas kick within a wellbore are provided. The system includes a rotatable tool including one or more acceleration sensors and/or oscillators. The method includes rotating the rotatable tool in contact with fluid inside the wellbore and detecting changes in rotational velocity of the rotatable tool to detect the gas kick. In other aspects, the method includes detecting a change in density of the fluid within the wellbore by at least one or more pressure waves to determine the gas kick within the wellbore.

Abstract: The embodiments include systems and methods to determine torque and drag of a string. A method includes analyzing a plurality of continuous segments of a string deployed in a wellbore, and determining a deflection of the plurality of continuous segments from a node of the string and a tortuosity deflection of the wellbore. In response to a determination that deflection of the plurality of continuous segments from the node of the string is greater than the tortuosity deflection of the wellbore, the method includes applying a soft string model to determine a torque and a drag of the string. In response to a determination that deflection of the plurality of continuous segments from the node of the string is not greater than the tortuosity deflection of the wellbore, the method includes applying a stiff string model to determine a torque and a drag of the string.
