Pressure Regime Data gained from drilling, electric logging, RFT pressure measurements and production tests show that the first six wells drilled in block 31/2 are hydrostatically pressured. (See enclosure 3) The proposed location 31/2-J is some 3.25 km W of 31/2-4 and is considered to be in the same hydrostatically pressured regime.

10. Mud Resume The 36" hole section is to be drilled with a seawater and viscous pill combination. The 17i" pilot hole for the 26" hole section is to be drilled with an unweighted gelled water mud combined with the frequent spotting of viscous pills. The 17|" pilot hole will be opened up to 26" using seawater and viscous pills, with the riser removed and returns to seabed. Note: Prior to pulling out of the 17i" pilot hole and 26" hole for logging and the running of 20'" casing respectively, mud of 1.40 SG is to be spotted in the open hole section, to ensure hole stability. The 17i" hole section will be drilled with a KCL/Polymer mud system with a mud weight of 1.26 - 1.31 SG (.545 - .567 psi/ft) Note: From experience gained on wells 31/2-1,2,3 and 6 a mud weight of 1.31 SG was required to stabilize this hole section.
\n

For the 12-1/4" hole section the addition of KCL will be stopped^the KCL/Polymer mud. A mud weight of 1.14 SG (.494 psi/ft) will be used in this section. The fluid loss is to be brought down to the lowest practical value but certainly below 5cc. The hydraulics programme and

I I I I I I I

ROP in the reservoir section should be such as to minimise the chances of washing out the hole prior to a MCURGP. Note: This mud weight will exert +/- 130 psi overbalance on top of the main reservoir in the event of the riser being disconnected, Note: 1) Mud weights mentioned are a guide only and are liable to change if hole conditions dictate. 2) If hydratable clays are encountered in the 12-1/4" hole section, the mud will be "broken over" to a Gypsum/ Lignosulphonate mud system.

I I I I I I I I I I I I

Detailed mud properties and parameters will be specified in a separate mud programme. 11. Well Control A diverter will be hooked up to the riser during the drilling of the 17i" pilot hole for 20" casing. In addition, 1.4 SG mud (.606 psi/ft) should be available during this diverter drilling in case flows are encountered. Cement will also be available on the rig for use in an emergency. Pressure control will be maintained from the 20" casing point to TD in accordance with the well control policy manual EP 40806. 12. Deviation Control Magnetic single shot surveys will be taken every 90 meters, to coincide with bit trips where possible. The well path is to be calculated using the "Minimum Radius of curvature" Method.

SUMMARY OF OPERATION 1. Pre-Spud Phase Site Survey A combined seafloor and high resolution seismic survey will be carried out in March 1982. Site Survey report not available at the time of issue, and will be issued as a separate report before start of drilling.

2.

Rig Positioning The rig will be brought on to location utilizing Decca Pulse-8 with HP minicomputer. All anchors will be run out plus/minus 1450 m. The rig will be positioned with a heading of 315 deg true north. After anchors have been set, each anchor will be tested to plus/minus 400,000 Ibs for 1 hour. After a satisfactory mooring test, approximately 250,000 Ibs will be held on all anchor chains. The final coordinates will be determined with an accuracy of 10 m (RMS) using Satnav.

Spudding in, drilling 36" hole and running 30" Casing 1. 2. Check the seabed condition by an observation dive. Set TGB (with 5 m skirt) at slack tide. A Regan slope indicator is to be run on the TGB running tool to give an indication of the TGB angle. The TGB guide lines are to be marked at the spider deck level so that any subsequent sinking or tilting will be detected. Note: Calculate the OF - seabed distance and Mean Sea Level (MSL) after landing the TGB, taking into account the drilling draught and tidal variation. 3. Make up a 36" hole opener and 26" pilot bit assembly (a monel collar to be included for MSS). Drill down to 30" casing setting depth, taking a MSS after the first Kelly down. Additional surveys will be carried out as necessary, depending on hole angle. If hole angle is greater than li degree then contact base, where the various options will be considered. Before POH to run 30" casing circulate high viscosity mud in the hole, using 200% excess. 4. Run 30" casing plus MGB equipped with a Regan slope indicator (to be installed in the middle of a side beam, as close to the beam as possible). Install a second Regan slope indicator on the 30" running tool. Ensure that the slope indicators are properly level and zeroed and will be visible to the subsea TV. When the 30" casing is landed observe the angle with the subsea TV camera. If the angle is 1 degree or less, cement the casing using 200% excess cement. (For cement calculations see enclosure 2A.)

WOC. Divers to check cratering around the guide bases with an observation dive. Run a check-totco in 30" running tool. (Install a totco ring in a sub below the running tool). If excessive cratering is observed, re-cementing around the guide base or seabed may be considered prior to drilling out of the 30" casing. Or if this problem is anticipated, consider using 300% excess cement instead of 200%. Note: a) For the single stack system the angle of the MGB and BOP stack, and the base being level, are of utmost importance and good support is required to carry the very heavy load of the stack. b) Observe operations such as placing of the TGB and MGB, spudding in, stabbing in, drilling with returns to seabed, cementing of the 30" and 20" casings, with the rig's underwater TV camera. Maintain a tension in the anchor chains at the upper limits until the 30" casing is cemented, in order to minimize rig offset. Otherwise, the stack and conductor could be set under an angle which could lead to serious damage to the U.W. equipment. Ensure that the tension of the guide lines is optimum so that the TGB will not be lifted on one side or be tilted by excessive uneven guide line tension. It is evident that the weather conditions should be moderate for most of the above operations.

Drilling 26" hole and running 20" casing Drill out cement in 30" casing and 36" pocket with 26" hole opener and 17J" pilot bit with a stabilizer at 20 m and start 17i" pilot hole. POH and lay down 26" hole opener. Run 30" pin connector and dump valve complete with flex joint on 21" riser. Use minimum required tension on ruckers. Fill up riser with seawater and observe fluid level. Make up 17i" pilot hole drilling assembly. Use a float sub, with the float installed, and run in hole. Close di verter around drill pipe, and circulate through diverter lines to check the diverter equipment, gradually building up to maximum circulating rate. Open diverter packing. Drill 17i" pilot hole to the 20" casing setting depth, allowing for a 10 m pocket. Note: This section is to be drilled using an unweighted gelled mud and the weight of annular returns is to be continuously monitored. If the weight of annular returns causes losses or exceeds 1.10 SG (476 psi/1000 ft) stop drilling and circulate the hole clean. It is evident that the ROP will have to be controlled whilst drilling this section. Perform a check trip to the 30" shoe and back to bottom, clean out any fill and spot viscous mud of 1.4 SG (606 psi/1000 ft) in the open hole section prior to pulling out of hole for logging.

Rig up Schlumberger and log as programmed. Note: Inspect the logs for indications of shallow gas prior to continuing with the programme. If any indications of shallow gas are observed then call Base and a revised programme will be issued. Rig down Schlumberger and run in hole to TD. Circulate the hole volume to seawater and open the dump valve. Observe well static for i hour and then spot high viscosity mud in the open hole section. If flow occurs, the 17" pilot hole will be under-reamed as described under "Notes on Diverter Drill ing" point d. Pull out of hole and retrieve the 30" pin connector on riser.

9.

10. Pick up a 17i" pilot bit and 26" hole opener with a 26" stabilizer at 10 m and 30 m above the bit. Open the hole up to 26" using seawater and viscous pills. 11. Run and cement 20" casing as per programme. Note: Use a long drillpipe stinger (+/- 60 m above the float shoe) inside the casing. 12. Unlatch the running tool, pick up until the bottom of the stinger is just below 18-3/4" housing. Wash in and around the housing with seawater prior to retrieving the running tool. 13. Install the 18-3/4" BOP stack and 21" Marine Riser. Test BOP stack, complete with casing. For stack test procedure see "Stack Testing" item C. Make up drill pipe hang off assembly and circulating head assembly. Install wearbushing.

Notes on Di verter Drilling

a)

Diverter systems are fitted on offshore rigs to provide a means of controlling the flow should shallow pressures be encountered whilst drilling for the first casing string (surface casing). The diverter system is not a blowout preventer. It is not designed to hold pressure, but instead, to direct the flow overboard. The controls of the flowline valves are manifolded in such a way that it is impossible to hold any pressure in the diverter. The downwind blow-off line must always be open. Severe Losses If severe losses are encountered while drilling with returns to surface pull out and drill a 12-1/4" pilot hole instead of 17J" and restrict penetration rates to obtain the lightest possible annular returns. If severe losses are continuing, open the dumpvalve and drill a 12-1/4" pilot hole with returns to seabed. If gas is encountered whilst drilling 12-1/4" pilot hole with seawater and returns to seabed, spot heavy mud and inform Base.

Run back to bottom. POH. Run BGT to check holesize. RIH with bit and under-reamer. Circulate, if required. Observe well. Open dump valve. Fill up Marine Riser with seawater to give a column equal to the water depth. After level in Marine Riser is equalised to sea level, observe well in Marine Riser and check flow on open dump valve with TV. Close dump valve. Make another check trip, circulate high viscosity mud to give 100 psi overbalance to potential gas zone if possible, and pull back to pin connector, circulate Marine Riser to seawater. POH. Retrieve Marine Riser. Stand back 18-3/4" housing in derrick. Make additional check trip prior to running 20" casing. e) Gas Flow and Severe Losses if any flow of gas is encountered whilst drilling the 17i" pilot hole with returns to surface, and the required increased mud weight to counteract the gas flow causes severe losses, then inform Base. Note: There should be sufficient barytes and SAPP onboard to allow for the setting of baryte plugs. Further programme will be advised in this case.

Drill 12-1/4" hole to programmed depth. Bit weight, RPM, bit selection and bottom hole assembly to be determined on site for optimum penetration rate. Note: Coring will commence using fibreglass sleeves in the L. Cretaceous Limestone and mudstone with a 8-15/32" core head and will continue through the complete oil bearing sequence until just below the assumed FWL. Note: The cored interval will be opened up to 12-1/4" prior to logging. It is of the utmost importance that the hole is not washed out when opening up to 12-1/4" and thereby negating the benifits of a M.C.U.R.G.P. Therefore the penetration rate and pump rates are to be controlled to ensure the hole is not washed out. 3. Carry out logging programme, including wire line tests if necessary. Make up 9-5/8" hanger with subsea cementing assembly (using two plugs) and stand back in derrick. Make check trip, pull wearbushing and run 9-5/8" casing to landing point, leaving a 10 m pocket below the 9-5/8" shoe. Cement the 9-5/8" casing as per programme. Clean out the stack area prior to pulling out the running tool. Whilst displacing, (in turbulent flow at 250 ft/min or higher), returns are to be monitored closely. If losses are observed adjust pump rates accordingly.

Abandonment 1. If there is open hole below the last casing then all porous zones in the open hole interval will be isolated with cement plugs extending 50 m above and below each zone. In addition a cement plug, extending 50 m above and below the casing shoe, shall be set. The top of the cement plug shall be located and load tested. A mechanical bridge plug may be set in the lower part of the casing but not more than 50 m above the shoe. A 20 m cement plug must be placed on top of the bridge plug. The plugs at the last casing shoe shall be tested to 1000 psi (70 bar) differential pressure. Perforations shall be isolated by means of a mechanical bridge plug and squeeze cemented, or a cement plug shall be placed across the perforations extending 50 metres above and below the perforated interval or down to a casing plug whichever is less. Cement plugs of at least 50 metres shall be placed in the smallest casing string extending to seabed. These plugs shall be placed at the level of the 13-3/8" casing shoe and the 20" casing shoe. A cement plug of at least 200 metres, with the top of the plug not more than 50 metres below the sea floor, shall be placed in the smallest string of casing extending to the sea floor. Casing strings and other installations extending above the sea floor must be removed to a depth of at least 5 metres below the ocean floor. The sea floor in the vicinity of the borehole will be inspected by TV/observation dive to ensure that no obstructions remain on the sea bed which may cause danger or impediment to fishing or shipping. A specific abandonment/suspension programme will be prepared and issued when the well reaches total depth.

1500 psi around 3-1/2" DP Test 1,3 and 4 to be carried out with a boll weevil tester run on DP and landed in the wellhead. Test 2 to be carried out only when the cement of the last casing is not yet drilled out. In test 1 and 3, 2500 psi test pressure is to be used on the 13-3/8" seal assembly and in subsequent BOP tests, and 4000 psi test pressure on 9-5/8" seal assembly and in subsequent BOP tests. The test pressure on 9-5/8" seal assembly is below the collapse rating of the 9-5/8" casing and the test pressures are only applicable to Block 31/2 where we have a known hydrostatic pressure gradient.

Accumulator Tests The accumulators must have sufficient capacity to be able to close, open and close all preventer with both air and electric charge pumps off, and then still have enough pressure left to provide working fluid
for 25% of one closing function. Minimum recharge time from above

condition with both air and electric pumps running should be in accordance with manufactorer's specifications. A note that this test has been carried out (and results) must be made in the Drilling Report and on weekly BOP test checklist. For frequency see (this Section) item 10.

Notes on Testing 1. The BOP stack has to be tested on all functions and all rams tested to the full rated WP at surface prior to running the Stack. However, the blind/shear rams will be tested only on orders of Base, but at least once per month during a routine stack test. After the surface tests all Cameron clamp connections and all studded connections must be checked for tightness. All presssure tests to be carried out with water, unless differently advised by Base. All surface equipment has to be satisfactorily pressure tested prior to testing the BOP stack underwater. When running the Marine Riser with integral kill-and choke lines, the kill-and choke lines can be tested while running in at various stages. This should be done at least twice, firstly as soon as the stack is below sea level, and secondly, just before landing the stack. When testing the BOP stack underwater with a boll weevil test tool in the wellhead, use the vented red-painted test single. All pressure tests should be done in 500 psi stages up to the required test pressure. The test pressure should be kept on for 15 minutes, and the acceptable pressure drop over this 15 minutes period is 10% of the initial test pressure, provided that the pressure remains constant for the next 5 to 10 minutes. All pressure tests to be recorded on pressure recorder charts. A record is to be kept of the volumes required to obtain the test pressure, and of the volumes returned when bleeding off.

For all pressure tests either the Shell TP or WSPE will be present at the pumping unit to monitor volumes/pumped and pressures.

10. The opening/closing times and the volumes of hydraulic operating fluid required for the operation of the various underwater stack components (such as: rams, k i l l and choke valves, annular preventers, hydraulic connectors, etc.) should be recorded during testing of the stack underwater. These results should be compared with the normal opening/closing times and volumes required of the hydraulic system. Any major differences are an indication that the system is not operating "normally" and may require further investigations and/ or repairs. 11. The testing of 10,000 psi BOP stack will be done to 4000 psi only, at the weekly routine BOP test underwater. If higher test pressures are required then, depending on the well programme, the test pressure will be increased to the value required and carried out with a boll weevil test tool, e.g. subjecting the seals of the seal assembly to the same pressure as the BOP stack, or by means of a weight set tester, subjecting only the stack to the required test pressure. Run 2 stands drill collars below the weight set tester to assist in shearing the pins with set down weight. See item 1 on blind/shear rams. 12. Accumulator tests (as described previously) should be done either on request of Base, or after repair have been done to the accumulator system, i.e. bottles, bladders, pumps, etc.

CASING DESIGN Casing design are presented for the 20", 13-3/8" and 9-5/8" casings (See Encl. 1.0.) The following assumptions apply: 1. For tension, a design safety factor of 1.6 is used, neglecting buoyancy in the drilling fluid. Bi-axial effects have been neglected except in the case of the lowering of collapse resistance caused by tension. No allowance is given for the increase of burst resistance caused by tension. For burst, a design safety factor of 1.1 is employed. The pressure distribution for the burst loading assumes a 40% evacuation of mud from the well by a kick. For collapse, a For the 20" and assumed for the of 85% has been design safety factor of 1.0 is employed. 9-5/8" casings total evacuation has been design. For the 13-3/8" casing, evacuation assumed for the design.
