Gas migration is indicated by an equal and steady rise in SIDPP and SICP!

1 Select a Safety Margin and Range to control bottom-hole pressure.

Recommend: Safety Margin = 100 psi & Working pressure range = 100 psi
Enter Safety Margin = 100.00 psi Enter Pressure Range = 100.00 psi

2 Calculate the Hydrostatic Pressure per bbl of mud in the annulus (recommend upper annulus).

0 0.0000 bbl/ft

3 Caculate the Volume to Bleed for each Cycle. Volum to bleed per cycle = #DIV/0! bbls

4 Allow shut-in casing pressure to increase by the Safety Margin without bleeding. 100.00 psi

5 Allow shut-in casing pressure to increase by the Range without bleeding. 200.00 psi Pchoke 1

6 Maintain the increased casing pressure constant by bleeding small increments of mud from
the choke until the Volume per Cycle is bled (measured in a calibrated trip tank).
7 Repeat Steps 6 & 7 until another well control procedure is implemented or gas is at the surface.

Lubrication Procedure Worksheet - Pressure Method

Enter Starting Shut-in Casing Pressure (P1) = 550.00 psi

1 Select a Working Pressure Range to control bottom-hole pressure.
Recommend: Working pressure range = 100 psi Enter the Working Pressure Range = 100.00 psi

2 Pump into the closed-in well to increase casing pressure by the Working Range.

Note: In the case of high fluid loss downhole Estimated New Casing Pressure (P2) = 650.00 psi
use the casing pressure that stabilized Use stabilized casing pressure after injecting!
after injecting the lube mud (may not be
possible to use the recommended range). Actual stabilized casing pressure after injection (P2) = 700.00 psi

3 Allow time for the mud to "lubricate" through the gas (usually 10 - 15 minutes).

4 Bleed the casing pressure to the calculated New Casing Pressure value.

P3 = P1^2 / P2 Bleed Casing Pressure to (P3) = 432.14 psi

NOTE: Ensure that no significant amount of mud is bled. If so, allow additional
time for the gas to lubricate through the mud (or gas is not all at surface).
Returns should be routed through the mud gas separator to a measuring tank
and any volume of mud bled back with the gas is recorded and accounted for.

5 Use the New Casing Pressure as the Starting Shut-in Casing Pressure for the next cycle.

6 Repeat steps 2, 3, and 4 for additional cycles until all gas is removed or another procedure is implemented.

NOTE: It is likely that less and less volume will be lubricated during each additional
cycle as the process continues. This is due to the reduction in volume of the
compressible gas.

Lubrication Procedure Worksheet - Volume Method

Original SICP = 0 psi MAASP = #DIV/0! psi

Enter starting shut-in casing pressure due to gas at surface (P1)- 600.00 psi

1 Select a Working Pressure Range to control bottom-hole pressure.

Recommend: Working pressure range 100 psi
Enter Working Pressure Range(Pw) = 100.00 psi

2 Calculate the Hydrostatic Pressure per bbl of mud in the annulus (recommend upper annulus).
HP per unit volume in annulus = Fluid Gradient / Annular Capacity

Annular Capacities Enter Annular Capacity = 0.0489 bbl/ft

0 0.0000 bbl/ft
0 0.0000 bbl/ft Hydrostatic pressure per unit volume = 0.0000 psi/bbl
0 0.0000 bbl/ft

3 Pump into the closed-in well to increase casing pressure by the Range.
Enter the New Shut-in Casing Pressure (P2) = 740.00 psi
Record the actual value.
4 Allow time for the mud to "lubricate" through the gas.

5 Measure the tank and calculate the hydrostatic pressure increase of the mud lubricated for that cycle.
Enter the volume lubricated for cycle = 12.0 bbls

Hydrostatic Increase = Volume lubricated for cycle x Hydrostatic per bbl = 0.00 psi

6 Bleed dry gas from the choke to reduce the casing pressure by the range and by the hydrostatic increase.

Note: Ensure that no significant amount of mud Casing pressure before bleeding (P2) = 740.00 psi
is bled. If so, allow additional time for the gas to First bleed casing back to (P1) value = 600.00 psi

routed through the mud gas separator to a measureing Bleed casing pressure to = 600.00 psi
tank and any volume bled back with the gas is
accounted for!

7 Repeat steps 3 through 6 for additional cycles until all gas is removed or another procedure is implemented.
NOTE: It is likely that less and less volume will be lubricated during each additional
cycle as the process continues. This is due to the reduction in volume of the
compressible gas.

Long Term Annular Stripping - Worksheet

Enter the Shut-in Casing Pressure (Pa) = 600 psi

1 Select a Safety Margin and Range to control bottom-hole pressure.

Recommend: Safety Margin = 100 psi Recommend: Working Range = 100 psi
Enter Safety Margin (Psm) = 100 psi Enter Pressure Range (Pw)= 100 psi

2 Calculate the Hydrostatic Pressure per bbl of mud in the annulus (recommend upper annulus).
HP per unit volume in annulus =Fluid Gradient / Annular Capacity
Annular Capacities Enter Annular Capacity = 0.0489 bbl/ft
0 0.0000 bbl/ft
0 0.0000 bbl/ft Hydrostatic psi per bbl = 0.0000 psi/bbl
0 0.0000 bbl/ft
Enter the Hole Diameter (inches) 8.5 in OH Capacity = 0.0702 bbl/ft

3 Calculate the length of influx when penetrated by the BHA, L1. L1 = 0.0 ft

L1 = Influx Volume / OH X DC Annular Capacity Enter the OH by Collar Capacity = 0.0291 bbl/ft

4 Calculate the length of the influx in open hole, L2. L2 = 0.0 ft

L2 = Influx Volume / Open Hole Capacity

5 Calculate the pressure increase due to influx penetration, Pp. Pp = 0.00 psi
Pp = (L1 - L2) x (Mud Gradient - Gas Gradient)

6 Calculate the pertinent Strip Tank (Vs) and Trip Tank (Vt) volumes.
Enter DP OD being stripped = 5 in Vs = 2.3 bbls
Enter length per stand = 93 ft
Vs = Closed end pipe displacement per stand Vt = #DIV/0! bbls
Vt = Working pressure range (Pw) / Upper annular hydrostatic per unit volume

7 Calculate the Pchoke Values. Pchoke1 = 800 psi

Pchoke1 = Pa + Psm+ Pw + Pp Pchoke2 = 900 psi
Pchoke2 = Pchoke1 + Pw Pchoke3 = 1000 psi
Pchoke3 = Pchoke2 + Pw ....etc. Pchoke4 = 1100 psi

Procedure:
1 Strip first stand (without bleeding) to allow casing pressure to increase to Pchoke1 value.
2 Choke operator to bleed as necessary to maintain casing pressure constant at Pchoke value. After each stand,
drain the stripping volume Vs from the Trip Tank into the Stripping Tank (or alternate). Remember to lower pipe slowly,
have the floorhands remove pipe burrs from tool-joints, and remember to fill the string after each stand.

3 Continue as in Step 2 until a net gain of Vt (volume representing the expansion of migrating gas) is noted in the Trip Tank.
Then close the choke.

4 Repeat Steps 1 through 3 until on bottom. When on bottom, circulate well dead using the Driller's Method.
