Buckling in Vertical Wellbores:
In a vertical wellbore, the buckling of coiled tubing will occur if the coiled tubing becomes axially compressed and the axial compressive load exceeds the buckling load in the vertical section.
This could happen when we “slack-off” weight at the surface to apply bit weight for drilling and pushing the coiled tubing through the build section and into the horizontal section.

Buckling in Vertical Wellbores:

Helical Buckling in Vertical Wellbores:
A helical buckling load for weighty tubulars in vertical wellbores was also derived recently through an energy analysis to predict the occurrence of the helical buckling:

Slide 34 of 42
Helical Buckling in Vertical Wellbores:
This helical buckling load predicts the first occurrence of helical buckling of the weighty tubulars in the vertical wellbore.
The first occurrence of helical buckling in the vertical wellbore will be a one-pitch helical buckle at the bottom portion of the tubular, immediately above the KOP.
![Page 35: 16. Coiled Tubing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545e48b9af795930708b4762/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Slide 35 of 42
Helical Buckling in Vertical Wellbores:
The upper portion of the tubular in the vertical wellbore will be in tension and remain straight.
When more tubular weight is slacked-off at the surface, and the helical buckling becomes more than one helical pitch, the above helical buckling load equation may be used for the top helical pitch of the helically buckled tubular.
![Page 36: 16. Coiled Tubing](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061113/545e48b9af795930708b4762/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Slide 36 of 42
Helical Buckling in Vertical Wellbores:
The top helical buckling load Fhel,t is calculated by simply subtracting the tubular weight of the initial one-pitch of helically buckled pipe from the helical buckling load Fhel,b, which is defined at the bottom of the one-pitch helically buckled tubular:

Slide 38 of 42
Helical Buckling in Vertical Wellbores:
From Table 1, it is also amazing to find out that the top helical buckling load, Fhel,t, is very close to zero.
This indicates that the “neutral point”, which is defined as the place of zero axial load (effective axial load exclusive from the hydrostatic pressure force), could be approximately used to define the top of the helical buckling for these coiled tubings.
