Lesson 1
Well Control
Well Control
• Kick – “an unscheduled entry of formation fluids into
the wellbore, of sufficient Quantity to require shutting in the well.
• Blowout– Loss of control of a kick
Blowout
Blowouts
Well Control
• Blowout– Surface– Underground
• Blowouts caused by– equipment failure– human error
Well Control
• Engineers in office can aid in well control by:– Provide pressure profiles for all pending wells– Provide offset information such as logs, bit
records, mud reports, drilling records.– Provide support and assistance personnel on
location.
Well Control Terminology
• Hydrostatic pressure = .052 x MW x TVD
Hydrostatic Pressure
• Derive HSP equation
• Calculate the HSP for each of the following:– 10,000’ of 12.0 ppg mud– 12,000’ of 10.5 ppg mud– 5,000’ of 11.2 ppg mud on top of 6,000’ of 16.5
ppg mud
Hydrostatic Pressure
• Derive HSP equation– Area = A, sq.ft.
– Height = h, ft.
– Density = MW, ppg
• Weight of fluid =– A*h (ft3)*62.4 lb/ ft3
*MW/8.33
– =62.4/8.33*MW*A*h
h
A
MW
Hydrostatic Pressure
• This weight is equally distributed over an area of A sq.ft or 144*A sq. in.
• Pressure = Weight (force)/area
• = 62.4*MW*A*h
• 8.33*144*A
• P=.052*MW*h where h=TVD
Terminology
• Pressure Gradient– psi/ft = .052 x MW– ppg equivalent
• Formation Pressure– Normal pressure– Abnormal pressure– Subnormal pressure
Terminology
• Overburden pressure– function of rock and fluid above zone of
interest
• Fracture pressure
Terminology
• Pump pressure or system pressure loss
Terminology
• Slow Pump Pressure
• Taken:– every tour by each driller– pumps repaired or liners changed– mud properties change– every 500’ of hole– change in BHA– bit nozzles changed
Terminology
• Surge pressure• Swab pressure
Terminology
• Shut-in drillpipe pressure - SIDPP– FP = HSPdp + SIDPP
• Shut-in casing pressure - SICP– FP = HSPcsg mud + HSPinflux + SICP
• Bottom-hole pressure - BHP– BHP = HSP + SIP + Friction + Surge - Swab
U-Tube Concept
Basic Calculations
• Dia, in - cap, bbl/ft
