Bottoms-Up Time
What is the bottoms-up time with one pump operating at 110
SPM?
a. ____ min
Bottoms up time with one pump operating at 110 SPM is
equal to the total annular capacity (drill
string in the hole) divided by the pump output in barrels per
minute. In Problem #7, the total annular capacity was
calculated to be 802 bbl.

contamination is routinely carried out by analysis of the mud alkalinity, in particular the ratio
of Pf to Mf . The following table shows how the results should be interpreted and the effect of
the differing types of alkalinity on the mud.
