Eng. And Maintenance Calculations
Material Balance Equations
V1 D1 + V2 D2 + ..... + Vn Dn = VF DF
and
V1 + V2 + ..... + Vn = VF
Where:
V1= Volume of mud 1, D1= Density of mud 1
V2= Volume of mud 2, D2= Density of mud 2
VF= Final mud volume, DF= Final mud density
Eng. And Maintenance Calculations
• Mix Two Mud Together
Example Problem:
1. Calculate the final density of the mud after
mixing 300 bbl of 14.0 ppg mud with 450 bbl of
11.5 ppg mud.
Eng. And Maintenance Calculations
• Weight up a mud
Example Problem:
2. Calculate how many 100 pound sacks of barite
are required to increase the density of 1200 bbl
of 10.7 ppg to 16.0 ppg.
Eng. And Maintenance Calculations
• Dilute a mud with water
Example Problem:
3. Calculate the volume of water required to
reduce the density of 1500 bbl of 17.4 ppg mud
to 16.7 ppg.
Eng. And Maintenance Calculations
• Make an exact volume of mud
Example Problem:
4. Calculate how many barite and water is required
to mix exactly 900 bbl of 11.5 ppg mud.
Eng. And Maintenance Calculations
• Weight up mud and maintain the same volume.
Example Problem:
5. Weight up 620 bbl of 10.0 ppg and 13.5 ppg
while maintaining a system volume of exactly
620 bbl. How much barite will be needed, and
how much mud must be dumped.
Eng. And Maintenance Calculations
• Dilute a mud and maintain the same volume.
Example Problem:
6. Dilute 1100 bbl of 15.8 ppg mud to 14.0 ppg and
maintain the same volume.
Eng. And Maintenance Calculations
• Make an exact volume oil mud.
Example Problem:
7. Determine how much oil, water and barite will
be required to mix 800 bbl of 16.0 ppg oil mud
with an 85/15 oil/water ratio and oil density of
6.9 ppg.
Calculation Related to Circulation, Hole
and Equipment Volumes
• Annular volume, bbl = 0.000971( DH2 − ODP2 ).L
• Pit volume calculations, bbl L .W . D
=
5 . 615
• Pump output, bbl = 0.000243D 2 .L
• Circulating time calculations
Annu.vol (bbl )
– Bottoms up, min =
POP (bbl / min)
Annu.vol (bbl )
– Hole circulation, min =
POP (bbl / min)
POP
– Annular velocity, ft/min =
Ann.cap
 Example Problem
Given the following information: Calculate:
• TVD = 15,000’ – Bottom up, min
• Hole = 8.5” – Kelly to shaker, min
– Total circulation
• Casing: 9 5/8” (N80, 43.5 lb/ft) at
– Annular velocity
10,500’ – ID = 8.625”
• Procedures:
• DP OD = 4.5” (16 lb/ft) @ 14,200’
1. Casing capacity
DP ID = 3.826”
2. Hole capacity
DC OD = 6” (85 lb/ft) @ 800’
3. Total capacity
DC ID = 2”
4. Annular capacity (Casing & DP, OH & DP, OH & DC)
• Pump: Triplex, Liner = 6”, SL.= 16”
5. Drill string displacement
St/min = 80
6. Drill string capacities
Efficiency = 85%
7. Pit volumes
• Pits: 3
8. Pump output + Pump output with efficiency (bbl/st)
Length = 20’
9. Pump output (bbl/min)
Width = 10’
10. Bottom up, min
Depth = 6’
11. Hole circulation
Capacity = 70%
12. Complete circulation
13. Annular velocity
