WHY OPTIMUM CIRCULATION IS IMPORTANT?

It can fastest the drilling

Fastest drilling mean minimize cost

HOW TO OPTIMIZE CIRCULATION

1) CIRCULATION IN GENERAL
2) THE EQUIPMENT OF THE CIRCULATION
3) THE WAY TO OPTIMIZE THE CIRCULATION

CIRCULATION IN GENERAL
CIRCULATION VERY
IMPORTANT FOR DRILLING
CIRCULATION LIKE BLOOD ON
UOR BODY

THE CIRCULATION EQUIPMENT

PUMP
SHALE SHAKER
DESSANDER
DEGASSER
DESILTER
MUD GAS SEPARATOR

HOW TO OPTIMIZE
MUD MUST CLEAN FROM FORMATION MATERIAL

Sand content

Gas

Other material

CONCLUSION

OPTIMUM CIRCULATION CAN FASTEST DRILLING

THE GREATER CIRCULATION NOT ALWAYS GIVE
THE BEST ROP, BUT THE OPTIMUM ROP GIVE US
THE BEST ROP
