First ofall, you need to know what isthe fd caliper is. The fui caliper is one simple way to calculate hole diameter. The concept is based on hole volume, annular capacity, and inner capacity. You pump any substance and when you seen it on surface, you back calcubte the hoke size based on strokes pumped. It is quite tricky to explain so I would like you to see the example below which it will make you clear about what I say.

Pump output is 0.1 bblistroke. Surface line from pumps to rig floor is 20 bbL Carbide is detected by a gas sensor on surface afer 4,000 strokes pump. With the given information, determine what is the hole size of the open hole section. ‘The basic drilng formulas that you need to know are innet capacity and annular capacity calculation, Ist step - Determine Inner Capacity and Annular Capacity of All Parts Inner capacity of "DP 3342 10294 4"DP inner capacity = Inner capacity of 4DP = 0.01084 bbl bepakwaclingformulas.comhow-o-determine-hole-size-by-uc-caliper!aries HowTo Determine Hole Size By Fuid Caliper Inner capacity of 4-3/4"DC 2.5? 10294 4— 3/4"DC inner capacity = Inner capacity of 4-3/4"DC = 0.00607 bbI Annular capacity between 4” DP and 7” Casing 6366? — 4?

But pump vol effis low or not reliable, result on hole size can be wrong, Reply TOD ie nanscon ss. 201301051 50 Ky, You are right. This method gives you rough ideal of how big of the wellis. if you wan more accuracy, you need to ‘run wireline logging (caliper log) to find out the hole size. Reply ‘wang September 1, 2013 at 321 pm Tam sorry to bother you so much ,can you explain the word “drop carbide” to me?” what is it for ? Reply © “Drop carbide” is the process when carbide is dropped into driling thd, Carbide will react will water resulting in abnormal small gas peak.
