JarPro Jarring Analysis Software
Product Description JarPro is a general-purpose 2D jarring analysis program used for performing many phases of jarring analysis ranging from jar placement optimization to detailed time histories of jarring impact. The program uses a systematic stress wave tracking approach to simulate transmission of forces and motion in the drillstring during the jarring process. This approach enables JarPro to solve complex drillstring configurations efficiently using relatively simple inputs, thus facilitating its use by drilling engineers, rig personnel, and jar manufacturers. Benefits Reduce potential of damaging or losing the BHA during jarring by proper jar selection and placement Optimize jar placement in complex bottom hole assemblies Features Simplified data input requiring only basic jarring parameter selections and drillstring data in a user-defined format All internal nodes and elements are automatically generated Output includes characteristics of jarring and stuck point movements Training and Technical Support Comprehensive one-day training seminar Complete technical support Quality Assurance Program predictions validated by users & drilling research organizations through extensive testing Extensive verification by transient dynamic finite element analysis & closedform solutions

JarPro Extensively Validated Against FEA, Instrumented Tests and Field Results
Extensive comparisons were made between the results from the JarPro and the FEM approach to ensure that wave tracking and superposition effects were properly considered from various configurations of BHAs. The results show very good agreement between two methods. In the stress-wave tracking method, the hammer accelerations, impact times, durations, and forces can be calculated precisely.
These figures compare JarPro predictions against transient dynamic FEA results two typical BHAs. The impact forces and impulses in the primary impact duration of the two methods match closely.
