Drilling Fluid
Whilst drilling the a hole, drilling fluid (mud) is circulated down the drillpipe, across the face of the drillbit, and up the annulus between the drillpipe and the borehole, carrying the drilled cuttings from the face of the bit to surface. At surface the cuttings are removed from the mud before it is circulated back down the drillpipe, to collect more cuttings.
Mud
• Used as a carrying agent
• Balance the formation pressure

Drilling Fluids
![Page 38: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Well Control
• The purpose of well control is to ensure that fluid (oil, gas and water) does not flow in an uncontrollable way from the formations being drilled, into the borehole and eventually to surface.
• This flow will occur if the pressure in the pore space of the formation being drilled (the formation pressure) is higher than the hydrostatic pressure exerted by the column of mud in the wellbore
![Page 39: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• It is essential that the borehole pressure exceeds the formation pressure but below __________ pressure at all times during drilling.
• If formation pressure is greater than the borehole pressure an influx of fluid into the borehole will occur. Well taken a _________ .
• If no action is taken to stop the influx of fluid once it begins, then drilling mud will be pushed out of the borehole and the formation will be flowing in an uncontrolled manner at surface known as __________.
![Page 40: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Definition
• Kick
– An unwanted influx of formation fluids into the wellbore
• Blowout
– An uncontrolled flow of wellbore fluids
![Page 41: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
![Page 42: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Well Control Principle
• Primary Control – Pressure exerted by column of mud in the
borehole is greater than the pressure in the formations being drilled
• Secondary Control – Primary control fail
– The aim of secondary control is to stop the flow of fluids into well bore and eventually allow the influx to be circulated to surface and safely discharge, while preventing further influx down hole
![Page 43: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Primary Control – Pressure due to mud Colum exceed pore pressure -
Secondary Control – Influx
controlled by closing BOP’s
![Page 44: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Well Control Principle
The bore hole pressure becomes less than the formation pressure in two ways : 1. The formation pressure in a zone which penetrated is
higher than that predicted by reservoir engineer and geologist.
2. The pressure due to the colum of mud decreases for some reason and bottom hole pressure drops below the formation pressure.
p = 0.052 x mw density x height of mud colum
![Page 45: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Equivalent Circulating Density (ECD)
• The pressure provided by the rig pump is the sum of all of the individual pressure in the circulating system
• Overcoming friction losses between mud and whatever it is in contact with results is; – Pressure loss in surface line – Pressure loss in drill string – Pressure loss across bit nozzle – Pressure loss in annulus
• Pressure losses in the annulus acts as a backpressure to the formation, consequently the total pressure at the bottom hole is higher with the pump is on than with the pump off.
• ECD = Static bottom hole pressure + annulus pressure losses
![Page 46: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
CASING SETTING DEPTHS
• Main factors that govern the setting depths are:
– Formation pressures (normally, abnormally)
– Fracture Pressures
– Government Legislation or Company Policy
• Casing setting depths are selected for the deepest string to be run and then successively from the base of the well to surface
• The first selection criteria for selecting deeper setting depths is to permit the mud weight to control formation pressures without fracturing any overlying formations
• Plot pressure (pore, fracture and mud weight) against depth profile
![Page 47: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

Directional Drilling
• Reasons for Drilling a non-vertical (deviated well)
– Multi-well platform drilling
– Fault Drilling
– Inaccessible locations
– Sidetracking and straightening
– Salt dome drilling
– Relief wells
![Page 50: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
50
Directional Drilling
• Multi-well platform drilling
– Feasible in drilling a large number of wells from one locations (platform)
– Deviated well are designed to intercept a reservoir over a wide aerial extend.
![Page 51: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
51
• Fault drilling
– To avoid damage by fault slippage
– Can be minimize by drilling parallel to a fault and then changing the direction of the well across the target
![Page 52: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
52
• Inaccessible locations
– To avoid obstacle at surface (eg. River, mountain range, city)
– A well directionally drilled into the target from distance away form the point vertically above the required point of entry into the reservoir
![Page 53: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
53
• Sidetracking and straightening
– To correct the course of the well
– In the event of drillpipe stuck in the hole, alternative course required.
![Page 54: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
54
• Salt dome drilling
– To recover the accumulated hydrocarbon beneath the flank of the salt dome
– To avoid potential problems (eg. Severe washout, moving salt, high pressure of dolomites)
– Well is drilled alongside the salt dome to reach the reservoir
![Page 55: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
55
• Relief wells
– In the event of blow-out, the rigs is damaged.
– To kill the ‘wild’ well, another directionally drilled well is required.
– ‘Wild’ well can be killed by circulating high density fluid down the relief well, into and up the wild well.
![Page 56: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
56
Well Logging Operation
• Openhole wireline well logs are recorded when the drilling tools are no longer in the hole.
• They are recorded immediately after drilling and before the casing setting.
• MWD (measurement while drilling) or LWD (logging while drilling) logs, by contrast, are made as a formation is drilled.
• The first logging toll is attached to the logging cable and lowered into the hole to its maximum drilled depth.
![Page 57: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)

• Onshore, Wireline electrical logging is done from a logging truck sometimes referred to as a mobile laboratory
• Offshore, the same equipment is installed in a small cabin left permanently on the rig.
• Both truck and cabin use a variety of interchangeable logging tools, which are lowered into the well on the logging cable.
![Page 59: Part 1 Introduction to Drilling and Logging Operation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042904/55cf8d175503462b13920a02/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

• Most logs are run while pulling the tool up from the bottom of the hole.
• The cable attached to the tool acts both as
support for the tool and as a canal for data transmission.
• The outside consists of galvanized steel, while the electrical conductors are insulated in the interior.
• The cable is wound around a motorized drum on to which it is guided manually during logging.
• The drum will pull the cable. As the cable is pulled in, so the depth of the working tool is checked.
• Logging cables have magnetic markers set at regular intervals along their length and depths are checked mechanically, but apparent depths must be corrected for cable tension and elasticity
