Question: Use data given in Example 7 . 8 in the Textbook ( p . 3 3 1 ) and design intermediate and production casing strings

Use data given in Example 7.8 in the Textbook (p.331) and design intermediate and production casing strings for the conditions below.
> Consider minimum cost design (multiple grades and/or unit weights of casings to be used).
> Consider a 500 ft logistic constraint for both the intermediate and production designs.
> Consider a pressure rating of 3000 psi as the surface equipment constraint for the intermediate design.
> Consider that the completion fluid and the mud densities are equal in the production design.
a)(30 points) Design the intermediate casing, (assume that tension design is based on burst loading conditions only).
b)(20 points) Prepare the tension design of the intermediate casing using a safety factor of 1.8. Also, show your results in a figure.
c)(30 points) Design the production casing, (assume that tension design is based on burst loading conditions only).
d)(20 points) Prepare the tension design of the production casing using a safety factor of 2. Also, show your results in a figure.
