Annotation:

The Well Force 2.0 software is designed to calculate the longitudinal and contact forces, torques and bending moments acting on pipes and equipment moved in a well. The software also allows calculation of the weight on the hook, the permissible weight and hydraulic losses during drilling mud movement through pipes and annular gap between the pipes and the well. The Well Force 2.0 program was developed by employees of LLC "NTC ZERS" in 2022 and has competitive advantages over programs developed in other institutes/companies. The article briefly describes the software, its capabilities and scope of application. Using simple test examples (calculation of the permissible weight, centralizers placement, hydraulic losses, pressures during pumping of packs), some of its features are demonstrated.
