Notes:
COMPANY: HOLE DEPTH: 10,010' The mud weights are different for the HS-5500 test versus the HS-
RIG NAME: Rowan 52 MUD WEIGHT: 12.2 ppg (1462 kg/m3) 2172 test because the HS-5500 processed enough fluid while the
MUD CO: MI/Miller MUD TYPE: WBM rig was logging, to cause a mud weight increase.
LOCATION: Calcasieu The mud weights of the two HS-2172 tests were the same
WELL NAME: State Lease 15865# because the 274 gallon per minute (GPM) test was run
Summary immediately after collecting the data for the 180 GPM test.
The HS-2172 handled more volume and did a better job of removing solids.
