Environmental changes around a well can significantly affect the drilling process. This paper examines the effects of flow rate, bottomhole pressure, sheet permeability, viscosity, pressure gradient and well radius on the drilling process. It is shown that the energy-dynamic instability of the sheet’s near-shiva space, a highly active region in the formation, leads to changes in reservoir rock and fluid properties during the drilling process. These changes include physicochemical transformations such as deposition of asphaltenes, paraffins, and resins, as well as swelling of clay particles, which can disrupt reservoir physical properties and affect hydrocarbon flow. In addition, completion and production techniques and the chemistry of drilling and pressure fluids are particularly critical for low-permeability reservoirs. In this paper, the concept of skin effect is also introduced to assess the impact of process fluids on the bottomhole region, and a new assessment model is proposed. The results of the study are important for improving drilling technology and optimising reservoir development.
