NOTE 1 TO DETERMINE WEIGHTS OF STANDARD DRILL COLLARS NOT SHOWN USE THE FOLLOWING FORMULA: (AREA O.D. AREA I.D.) X 3.408 = WT./FT. SEE DIAMETER AREA TABLE IN SECTION 7.
NOTE 2 TO DETERMINE APPROXIMATE WEIGHTS OF SPIRAL DRILL COLLARS, FIND THE POUNDS PER FOOT FOR A COLLAR OF
THE SAME SIZE IN THE ABOVE CHART AND MULTIPLY BY 96%; FOR EXAMPLE, A COLLAR WITH AN O.D. OF 6" AND AN
I.D. OF 2" = 85 POUNDS PER FOOT ABOVE; 85 X .96 = 81.6 POUNDS PER FOOT (AN APPROXIMATION).
NOTE 3 TO DETERMINE CLASS WEIGHTS, MULTIPLY BY NUMBER OF FEET; FOR EXAMPLE A 30 CLASS COLLAR WITH AN O.D.
OF 6" AND AN I.D. OF 2" WEIGHS 85 POUNDS PER FOOT; 85 X 30 = 2,550 POUNDS.
