The document calculates the well depth, drill pipe properties, drill collar properties, mud properties, buoyant forces, minimum and maximum hook loads, and ranges for the weight on bit and hook load for a 550m well with 4" drill pipe and a 300ft drill collar. Key values include a minimum hook load of 21075.6 lbf, maximum hook load of 37429.3 lbf, minimum weight on bit of 9771.1 lbf, and maximum weight on bit of 26124.8 lbf.

Well Depth = 550m = 1804.4ft , 4 API drill pipe density = 14 lbf/ft
Collar Length = 300 ft , density = 7 times that of the drill pipe = 98lbf/ft Since the density of drillpipe and drill collar are same(both are made of steel) and unit length of drillpipe and drill collar is considered, therefore volume of the drill collar will be seven times that of drillpipe. Inside Diameter of Drill string = di = 3.340 inch
pi * (dCL2 3.342) = 7*pi*(42 - 3.342) dCL = 6.71 inch
