Abstract
A laser drilling equipment (300) is described, comprising: a) an optical component or supply module, constituted by a set of lasers (200) with active optical fibre (320), in the form of a hollow reel (210), the active medium of the laser being excited by means of the coupling of the light emitted by laser diodes (220) inside the active fibre; and b) a mechanical component which is an optical bit (100) with a rigid, hollow body (140) and end (130) of any geometry, said bit (100) being provided with orifices (110) for the connection of optical fibres (320) or a bundle of optical fibres with the walls of the bit (100) and orifices (120) for allowing drilling and cooling fluids to be projected onto the surface to be drilled, the optical fibres (320) or bundle of optical fibres extending from said supply module. The supply module is responsible for generating high-intensity light which, via the optical fibres, is guided to the optical bit. The supply module and the optical bit are coupled to a drilling column.

Abstract
The present invention is directed to methods for loosely coupling a stress analysis system to a conventional reservoir simulator by adjusting the flow equation of the conventional reservoir simulator. The solution is obtained by using the methods according to the invention in a loose, iterative coupling system; when convergence is reached, the results obtained by this solution are close to those of the full coupling system. The present invention is also directed to a system for implementing the invention provided on a digitally readable medium.

Abstract
A laser drilling system (100) is described for drilling through solid materials, the system comprising an optical drill (104) provided with sensors (106) which determine parameters of the drilling process and send this information over a bus (17) to a control and operation centre (101) that is connected by a bus (13) refrigeration and waste discharge system (105) and by a bus (10) to an energy source (102) connected by a bus (12) to the optical drill (104), such that once the process parameters have been determined by means of the sensors (106), the control centre (101) starts the laser light emitting process using the laser system (201), leading the laser energy to the drill (104), which initiates the process in real time in controlled conditions. The laser drilling method using the system according to the invention is also described. The drilling system carries out the profiling of the physico-chemical and mechanical properties of the material of the drilled well.
