Blowout prevention: Theory and applications with HP calculator programs
Abstract
This book helps readers develop a reliable conception of downhole conditions and the ability to accurately assess changing circumstances. Mills features eight HP-41C programs. Contents include: 1. Pressure conditions. 2. Effects of the mud column. 3. Indicators of inflow. 4. The closed-in well. 5. Formation strength. 6. Gas migration. 7. Killing the well. 8. Swabbling. 9. Gas contamination of mud returns. 10. Offshore considerations. 11. Internal blowout. Appendices: 1. Two-way conversion factors. 2. Exercises and solutions. 3. HP-41C programs (Bit pressure loss; Pressure loss in the drillstring; Annular pressure loss; Circulating pressure as an alternative flowrate; Annular velocity; Capacity of cylinders and annuli; Surge pressures; Well killing by weight and wait method).
