Abstract
In drilling operations, technological factors play a crucial role in influencing the occurrence of drill string sticking, a condition where the drill string becomes immobile within the wellbore. Stuck pipe incidents can severely disrupt operations, leading to significant time
delays and increased costs. To minimize these occurrences, it is essential to understand and manage the technological aspects of drilling, which include the selection and configuration of equipment, operational parameters, wellbore stability techniques, and adherence to optimized drilling practices. Poorly chosen or executed technological solutions can heighten the risk of drill string sticking, complicate the drilling process, or lead to a full operational shutdown.
