linkage connecting the drillbit at the bottom of
the hole to the rotary drive system on the
surface.

Washout in Drillstrings
• Tool joint failure is one of the main causes of
fishing jobs in drilling industry. This failure is
due entirely to the joint threads not holding
or not being made properly.

Washout in Drillstrings
• Washout can also develop due to cracks develop
within drill pipe due to severe drilling vibrations.
• Washout are usually detected by a decrease in the
standpipe pressure, between 100 – 300 psi over 5 –
15 minutes.
• The life of tool joints can be tripled if the joints if
hardfaced with composites of steel and tungsteen
carbide.

Approximate Weight of DP
and Tool Joint
• Nominal weight of DP is always less than the actual
weight of DP and tool joint because of the extra
weight added by tool joint and due to extra metal
added at the pipe ends to increase the pipe
thickness.

• Example
calculate the approximate weight of tool joint and DP assembly for 5 in
OD, 19.5 lb/ft Grade E DP having a 6.375 in OD, 3.5 in ID. With NC50
tool joint. Assume the pipe to be internally-externally upset (IEU) and the
weight increased due to upsetting to be 8.6 lb.

Drill Collar (DC) Selection
• There are two types of DC :
- Slick DC
- Spiral DC
• In areas where differential
sticking is a possibility
spiral DC should be used in
order to minimize contact
area with formation.

Procedure for Selecting DC
1) Determine the Buoyancy Factor (BF) of the mud weight:
MW MW = mud weight, ppg
BF = 1 −

Stiffness Ratio (SR)
• Stiffness ratio define as follows:
SR = Section modulus of lower section tube/section
modulus of upper section tube
SR =

Stabilizer
• Stabilizer tools are
places above the drill
bit and along the BHA
to control hole
deviation, dogleg
severity and prevent
differential sticking.
• There are two types of
stabilizer:
– rotating stabilizer

Standard BHA Configuration
• There are five types of BHA configuration:
1. Pendulum assembly
2. Packed bottom hole assembly
3. Rotary build assembly
4. Steerable assembly
5. Mud motor and bent sub assembly
24
Drillstring Design Criteria
• The criteria used in drillstring design are :
- Collapse
- Tension
- Dogleg Severity Analysis
25
Collapse Design
• The criteria to be used as worst case for the
collapse design of DP is typically a DST. The
maximum collapse pressure should be determined
for an evacuated string, with mud hydrostatic
pressure acting on the outside of the DP.
L x ρ1 ( L − Y ) x ρ 2
Pc = −
19.251 19.251
• Where:
- Pc = collapse pressure (psia)
- Y = depth to fluid inside DP (f)
- L = total depth of well (ft)
- ρ1 = fluid density outside DP (ppg)
- ρ1 = fluid density inside DP (ppg)
27
Collapse Calculation
28
Tension Design
• The tension load is evaluated using the
maximum load concept. Buoyancy is included
in the design to represent realistic drilling
condition.
• The tension design is established by
consideration of the following :
- tensile force
- design factor
- slip crushing design 29
Tension Design
(Tensile Force)
Weight Carried
• The greatest tension (P) on drillstring
occurs at top joint at the maximum
drilled depth.
[( )]
P = Ldp x Wdp + Ldc x Wdc x BF
Where :
Ldp = length of DP per foot
Wdp = weight of DP per unit length
Ldc = length of DC per foot
Wdc = weight of DC per unit length
30
BF = Buoyancy Factor
Tension Design
(Tensile Force)
• The drillstring should not be designed to its
maximum yield strength to prevent the DP
from yielding and deforming. At yield, the DP
will have:
– Deformation made up of elastic and plastic (permanent)
deformation.
– Permanent elongation.
– Permanent bend & it may be difficult to keep it straight.
31
Tension Design
(Tensile Force)
Pa = 0.9 x Pt
Where :
- Pa = max. allowable design load in tension, lb
- Pt = theoretical yield strength from API tables, lb
- 0.9 = a constant relating proportional limit to yield strength
32
Tension Design
(Tensile Force)
• From above (tensile force) equation, we
obtain:
MOP = Pa – P
DF = Pa / P
where :
MOP = margin of overpull, lbs
DF = design factor, dimensionless
33
Dogleg Severity Analysis
• The most common DP failure is
fatigue wear. Fatigue is
tendency of material to fracture
under repeated cyclic stress
and chemical attack.
• A DP fatigue wear generally
occurs because the outer wall
of the pipe in a dogleg is
stretched resulting in additional
tension loads.
34
Dogleg Severity Analysis
• The maximum possible dogleg severity for
fatigue damage considerations can be
calculated using the following formula:
432,000 σ b tanh KL
Max Ds = x x
π ED KL
