Kick Tolerance

Maximum formation balance gradient that may be encountered when a kick is taken at the pres
with the present mud weight, and the well shut in, without downhole fracturing occurring.

KT = (LOT EMW - MW) * (LOT TVD / TD TVD) + MW

KT = Kick tolerance, ppg


LOT EMW = Leak Off Test Equivalent Mud Weight, ppg
MW = Mud weight, ppg
LOT TVD = Leak Off Test True Vertical Depth, ft TVD
TD TVD = Point Of Interest True Vertical Depth, ft TVD

Kick Tolerance 20.27
