Typical vibration measurement tools are investigated and discussed. Two evaluation methods are compared systematically, such as theoretical and measurement methods. According to past theories, indoor experiments, and field studies, the relations among ten kinds of V&S, which contain basic forms, response frequency, and amplitude, are summarized and discussed. In drilling these complex wells, the cost caused by V&S increases. The directional wells and other special trajectory drilling technologies are often used in deep water, deep well, hard rock, and brittle shale formations.
Drill string vibrations and shocks (V&S) can limit the optimization of drilling performance, which is a key problem for trajectory optimizing, wellbore design, increasing drill tools life, rate of penetration, and intelligent drilling.
