Q2] Short Calculations:
(20 Points}
A) What is the submerged weight of a 7500 ft drill string consisting
of 5900 ft of Min drill pipe with nominal weight of 18 lb/ft, 600
ft of 5.5inx3.3in (ID OD) drill collar with weight of 84 Ib/ft, and
heavy weight drill pipe with 23 lb/ft. Mud weight is 10 ppg.
(Use steel density of 65.5 Ib/gal).
By) A well was drilled down to 11,200 ft with a 11.5 Ib/gal density
drilling fluid and a flow rate of 225 gal/min. The table gives the
different pressure losses in the system for that depth when
circulating. Calculate the BHP:

c) A well is to be drilled to 6,900 ft using 10 ppg mud. If the
maximum weight on the bit is 20,000 Ib, what is the required
length of drill collars (79 Ib/ft)?
Db) A 12000 ft drill string consists of 11400 ft Sin X95 class 2 drill
pipe with nominal weight of 19.50 lb/ft and 600 ft of 6inx2.5in
(ID OD) drill collar with weight of 79 Ib/ft and a mud weight of
10 ppg. Calculate the hook lead.
E) From the figure below, where the total length is 12000 ft, and the
drill pipe length is 11400 ft, what is the Hook Load @ DC Top?

(10 Points)
A) Calculate the internal yield pressure for burst for a 22”,
121#/ft, H-40 casing? Where ID =19.5”.
B) The collapse rating for an unknown 9-5/8” casing is 4,190 psi.
If the annulus outside the casing is filled with 13.7 ppg mud
and the inside of the casing is empty, calculate whether the
casing will collapse at 11337 ft TVD. Assume that you can run
empty casing to this depth due to buoyancy.
Q4] Drilling Hydraulics:
(15 Points)
A) What is the pressure drop at the bit for a bit containing 6
nozzles sized at 7/32” each with a nozzle factor is 0.95 if the
mud density is 13.7 ppg when the mud pump is running at 323
gpm.
B) Using the same well geometry and pump rate in the question
above, calculate the slip velocity if the mud density is 11 ppg,
the cuttings are assumed spherical and 0.25 inches diameter.
Density of the cuttings is 22 ppg and the apparent viscosity of
the mud is 47 op. Use the velocity eq. for Newtonian fluid and
assume Stoke’s Law is valid.
c) Compute the transport ration for the fluid in the question
above, then perform a check calculation to ensure that the
assumptions for laminar flow were valid.
Hint: The equation is valid only if the Reynold’s number is
less than 0.
