Overview: In this paper the poromechanics approach and the estimation of the mud weight stability for the vertical or the inclined wellbore are briefly discussed and presented. These solutions, implemented in the software RT-PBORE-3D, are capable of analyzing Real-Time Wellbore Stability in sound and/or fractured shale rock formations. Real-Time wellbore stability mud weight estimates, while drilling, are becoming industry standards. Overcoming wellbore drilling instability in shale formations will always present one of the major challenges to our drilling engineers.
