Abstract

A method for displacing a tubular string in a wellbore can include axially vibrating the tubular string at a surface location, and reducing friction between the tubular string and the wellbore due to the axially vibrating. The axial vibration may be imparted by operation of an injector assembly. The axial vibration may be imparted by operation of a vibration tool connected between the injector assembly and a wellhead or a support structure that suspends the injector assembly. The axial vibration may be imparted by varying a flow rate of fluid into the tubular string.
