Pulling Force Calculation

Due to Buoyancy Force :

𝐹1 = 𝜇𝑡 × 𝐵𝑜𝑦𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑦 𝐹𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟 × 𝐿𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑡ℎ 𝑜𝑓 𝑃𝑖𝑝𝑒 × 9.81

𝐹1 = 𝜇𝑡 × 𝑊𝑏 × 𝐿 × 9.81 = 9.81 x 86.45 x 0.36 x 120

Pulling Force :-
𝐹𝑡 = 𝐹1 + 𝐹2 + 𝐹3
Ft = 36636.82 + 2104.48 + 29164.38
= 67905.68 N
Considering Safety Factor & Drill pipes & Reamer Wt.

= 1.2 X Pulling Force + Drill Pipe Wt. + Reamer Wt

= 1.2 x 67905.68 + 1360 + 750
= 83596.82 N
= 8521.59 kg-wt
= 18747.50 lbs ( 1kg = 2.2 lbs)

We are using HDD machine with 33000 Lbs pulling capacity.

Maximum Allowable Stress

Sm = 90% of SMYS = 90% x 52000 PSI
= 46800.00 PSI
= 322.67 N/mm2

Bending Stress :-
𝐸𝐷
𝑆𝑏 =

Longitudional Stress during Installation :

=> Maximum Allowable Stress > Tensile Stress + Bending Stres

=> 322.67> 9.616+133.94436

=> 322.67> 143.56036N/mm = Lower than Allowable Stress

2. MAXIMUM EQUIVALENT STRESS DURING FINAL HYDROSTATIC TEST

Stress due to Hydrotest:-

𝑃𝐷
𝑆ℎ =
2𝑡
= 7.2 x 323.85/(2 X 7.1)
2
= 164.21 N/mm

Bending Stress (Sb) = 133.94 N/mm2

Post Installation :-
=> Max Allowable Stress > Bending Stress + Stress due to Hydro Test
=> 322.67 > 133.94436 + 164.21
=> 322.67 > 298.154
=> Lower than Allowable Stress thus safe"
