Question: Question 2 only please! Consider that the BOP working pressure of 5 , 0 0 0 psi was selected assuming the well full of gas
Question only please!
Consider that the BOP working pressure of psi was selected assuming the
well full of gas after a gas kick with pore pressure at bottom. For the design, the
drilling engineer used an anticipated depth of ft gas gradient equal to
psift and pore pressure equal to psi at ft This is equivalent to a
density of ppg as pore pressure.
QUESTION
When the well reaches ft the geologist tells you that he wants to
drill deeper. Considering that the pore pressure is constant and equal to
ppg with increasing depth, determine the maximum depth you can go
assuming that you will have a gas kick at bottom and BOP pressure
at surface. Your safety factor is psi at surface.
QUESTION
Plot the maximum depth you can reach vs equivalent pore pressure at
bottom ppg considering the well full of gas gas gradient psift
and pressure at surface equal to psi. Plot for a range of pore
pressure at bottom varying from to ppg
