Question: For each initial pit gain at well shut-in value, this gas-kick column will have to be circulated out of the well via DM's first circulation.

For each initial pit gain at well shut-in value, this gas-kick column will have to be circulated out of the well via DM's first circulation. The gas-kick column height will be increasing as it moves up in the annulus. Plot a graph of SICP at the choke against the depth of the top of the gas-kick column in the annulus. Reverse the direction of the horizontal axis such that the total well depth of 10,000 ft is on the left and 0 (surface) is on the right.
