Abstract
A method for determining a parameter by combination of engineering models and statistical analysis of drilling data in a data base to determine the frequency or probability of sticking of the drill string during drilling of wells at hole-angles from vertical to horizontal. The parameter can be used to decrease the probability of sticking of drill string during drilling a well and to minimize the cost of a well.
