This study examines the distribution of pore pressure (PP) and fracture gradient (FG) within intervals of lost circulation encountered during drilling operations in the Ordovician reservoir (IV-3 unit) of the Tin Fouye Tabankort (TFT) field, located in the Illizi Basin, Algeria. The research further aims to determine an optimized drilling mud weigh...
