P 2 psi

Where:
P1 = Original shut in pressure
P2 = Pressure increase due to pumping lubricating
into the wellbore.
P3 = pressure to bleed down after adding the
hydrostatic of the lubricating fluid

fluid

Procedure:
1. Select a working pressure range. For example,
Pw = 50 - 100 psi.
2. Pump lubricating fluid through the kill line to increase
the casing pressure by the working pressure, so that
P2 = P1 + PW.
3. Allow the pressure to stabilize. The pressure may drop
by a substantial amount.
4. Calculate the pressure (P3) to bleed down to by using
the formula above.
5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 until all the gas is lubricated
out of the well.

Accumulator Volume Required
Usable hydraulic fluid for operation of blowout preventer equipment
is affected by system pressure and nitrogen precharge. If the
nitrogen precharge is at the correct (recommended) precharge,
multiply the sizing factor from the table below times the fluid volume
required to operate a specified number of BOP functions (Volreq) will
provide the required total accumulator volume.

All precharge pressures should be in compliance with API 16D.
Precharge Pressure: The accumulator bottles filled with only precharge
gas at its initial pressure and ambient temperature. The precharge
pressure should be specified with a temperature. Precharge pressure is
not to exceed the working pressure of the accumulator. Any precharge
pressure less than the working pressure of the accumulator may be used
as long as the functional requirements of pressure and volume and
minimum design factors are satisfied.

Accumulator Volume Example

If the total fluid required for a BOP stack is 33 gallons, including the
safety factor, and the accumulator has an operating pressure of
3,000 psi with a 1,000 psi minimum precharge, the accumulator
volume required is 33 gallons times the size factor of 2, or
66 gallons.

Rules of Thumb
Tripping Rules of Thumb
Ideally, drillers would like to keep bottomhole hydrostatic
pressure constant during the trip out (POOH) and the trip in
(RIH). However, this is impossible from the operational
standpoint because of swab and surge pressures. Most
tripping rules-of-thumb are closely associated with
maintaining a safe hydrostatic overbalance that neither
causes a kick nor lost circulation.

Slug Mud Weight Rule of Thumb

Slug mud weight is generally one ppg higher than the hole
mud weight, with the objective being to unbalance the
DP/annulus U-tube by enough to pull dry pipe. The
condition of the mud, related to drill solids, and/or the mud
weight range could influence the driller to accept less than
one ppg.

Rules of Thumb

19

Stuck Pipe
The causes of stuck pipe are broadly classified as differential
or mechanical, and good monitoring and operating practices
will minimize both types of pipe sticking. Differential sticking is
caused by mud pressure overbalance and is influenced by
drilling practices, type mud solids, permeability, bottom-hole
assembly clearance, coefficient of friction and the lubricating
characteristics of mud. Mechanical sticking is caused by
deterioration of hole stability (shale problems, hole cleaning,
etc.) and/or directional (crooked-hole) problems.
Rule of Thumb for Differentially Stuck Pipe
The estimated force required to pull free is equal to the
contact force per unit length, times the length of pipe in
contact with permeable formation times the coefficient of
friction. This estimate tends to be more accurate in a
straight hole than in a directional well.
Estimating Formula for Differential Sticking
Fdiff = K (P) Area
Where:

Area = L

(assume of the drill collar circumference is buried)
Circumference = x Diameter

Conclusion: Force to pull free increases as the length of pipe in

contact with permeable formation increases, and as the
coefficient of friction between pipe and wall increases.

Free Point and Stretch Estimates

Rules of Thumb

20

When the drill string is stuck, the free point method can be
used to estimate the amount of free pipe in the hole.
Begin by pulling on the pipe with an initial force (Fi) that is at
least 1,000 pounds more than the hanging weight of the
string, and make a reference mark on the string. Increase the
pull by increments (for example, 5,000 lbs) to final force (Ff)
to determine a measurable stretch. Mark the string again,
measure the distance between the marks and record as the
stretch (S) in inches. Record the difference between Ff and Fi
as the pull increment (PI). The amount of free pipe (L) in
1,000s of feet below the rotary can then be estimated. These
estimates tend to be more accurate in straight holes than in
directional wells.
Estimating Formula
The formula for free pipe length L is:
L = 1.9635 S

OD 2 ID 2
PI

The formula for pipe stretch S is:

Pl L

S=

1.9635 (OD ID )

Where:
L
S
OD
ID
Pl

= Length of free pipe (1,000s ft)

= Stretch (inches)
= OD of the pipe (inches)
= ID of the pipe (inches)
= Pull increment (1,000s lbs) = Ff - Fi

Example
Given:
Drillpipe size = 5", 19.5 lb/ft
OD = 5"
ID = 4.276"
Calculate:

Fi = 5,000 lb
Ff = 35,000 lb
S = 12"

PI = 35 5 = 30
L = 1.9635 12

Estimating Temperature Drop Across a

Choke or Orifice

Rules of Thumb

21

Rule of Thumb
The temperature drop across a choke or orifice is about
one degree Fahrenheit (F) per each pressure drop of one
atmosphere (rounded at 15 psi).
Estimating Formula

Where:
Tdrop

= Temperature drop (degrees)

= Gas pressure before the choke (psi)
= Gas pressure after the choke (psi)
= Atmospheric pressure (15 psi)

Example
Calculate temperature drop if the gas pressure is reduced
from 1,000 psi to 500 psi across a choke.
Tdrop =

(1,000 500)

Estimating Gas Well Flow Rates

Rule of Thumb
The approximate flow rate (in mmscfd) of a gas well
through a blowdown line choke can be estimated by
multiplying 24 hours/day, times the tubing pressure plus 15,
times the square of the choke size in inches and divide by
1,000.
Estimating Formula
Q=

24 x (PL 15) x (Dch)2

1,000

Where:
Q = Flowrate (mmscfd)
PL = Pressure upstream of choke (psi)
Dch = Choke size (inches)

Example
Calculate the estimated flowrate of a gas well, given that
tubing pressure is 3,500 psi, and choke size is 1/4.
Q=

24 x (3,500 15) x (0.25)2

= 5.273 mmscfd

Pipe Elongation Due to Temperature

Since the well has higher temperatures than the air above
ground, an elongation will take place.
Rule of Thumb
Pipe will elongate about 0.83 inches, per 100 feet of length,
per 100 degree F increase in temperature. Knowing the
surface temperature and the average temperature of the
well, the elongation can be estimated.
Note:
Elongation (stretch) is also caused by the hanging
weight of pipe.
