*** Is possible to use Full Partial Evacuation and introduce the mud drop calculated depth using Hmud = Hloss (1‐ PPG/MW) OR use ‘Lost Returns with mud drop’ verifing the depth at which the loss is expected to occur (min PPG value).
****In the Eni Design Manual the running speed is recommended to be set zero. This way the hook load while running casing is calculated. We will assume a non‐zero running speed (higher than 0) only to account for operational loading making it a more realistic load case.
