Question: Design a 5 1/2 O.D. casing string to 16,500 ft, using any of the P- 110 casing weights. Assume worst possible conditions (no backup


Design a 5 1/2" O.D. casing string to 16,500 ft, using any of the P- 110 casing weights. Assume worst possible conditions (no backup for burst or collapse, etc.). Use the API design factors (Collapse 1.125, Burst 1.1, Tension 1.8). The weight of the mud in the hole is 14.0 lb/gal. Expected formation pressure below the casing seat is 10,500 psi. You must design the most economical combination casing string for this well. Provide the following information: a) Weight/ft of casing in bottom section of string b) Length of bottom section c) Weight/ft of casing in top section of string d) Total weight of string in air e) What kind of threads should be used near the top ... lb/ft ......ft lb/ft lbs f) Actual weight of string in mud, considering buoyancy, and assuming that the string is full of mud on the inside ...... lbs Page 14.
