This paper presents the design of an experimental setup and mathematical and physical models to determine the dynamical characteristics of the high-pressure supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) jet with a highly potential applications in the well drilling. The effects of three major factors on the wellbore dynamical characteristics of the high-pressure SC-CO2 jet, i.e., the nozzle diameter, the standoff distance and the jet pressure are determined. It is indicated that the pressure of CO2 reduces severely in the SC-CO2 jet impact process. It is also found that the bottom-hole pressure and the temperature increase as the nozzle diameter increases but decrease with the increase of the standoff distance. The higher the jet pressure at the wellbore inlet is, the higher the pressure and the lower the temperature at the bottom-hole will be.
