Problem

The 12' 1/4 phase of a well is drilled from a 13' 3/8 casing shoe from 2343 m to 3304 m. She is cased
with a 9'5/8 casing, the shoe is placed at 3302 m (2 m rate hole).the 9'5/8 casing is cemented with a
single slug with a density of 17.82. Float collar at 3278m, mud density is 17.32.Top cement has 2143
and top spacer has 1822 with a density of 17.5.

From the tables given in the driller's form, choose the 9' 5/8 casings that will be lowered into the hole
(weight and grade) based on the following cases:

1- Collapse (design factor: 1.125).

a. Cementing.
b. The loss of mud is present during the drilling of phase 8'1/2 (density mud 12.08). The static
level is located at 2000 m from the surface and the density at the exterior of the casing is 17.32

2- Burst (design Factor 1.1).

c. Pressure testing is 3480 psi.

3- Traction or tension (design Factor 1.8).

d. weight in the mud + pressure test 240 bars
