Drilling Engineering Workbook

The Drilling Engineering Workbook is a correspondence (distributed learning) course which covers the important elements of drilling a well. The emphasis is on the theory behind these drilling elements in order to develop a greater understanding of the principles involved in drilling a well. This is a lesson-by-lesson distributed learning course. Individuals should study each section and then answer the related questions at the end of the section. Supplementary reading is suggested throughout the text. This workbook, along with the related supplementary reading, should provide a sound basis for anyone involved in those services involved in drilling a well.

Saudi Aramco - Well Control Manual

The single most important step to blowout prevention is closing the blowout preventers when the well kicks. The decision to do so may well be the most important of your working life. It ranks with keeping the hole full of fluid as a matter of extreme importance in drilling operations. The successful detection and handling of threatened blowouts (‘kicks’) is a matter of maximum importance to our company. Considerable study and experience has enabled the industry to develop simple and easily understood procedures for detecting and controlling threatened blowouts. It is extremely important that supervisory personnel have a thorough understanding of these procedures as they apply to Saudi Aramco operated drilling rigs.

Drilling Fluids Processing Handbook

Written by the Shale Shaker Committee of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, originally of the American Association of Drilling Engineers, the authors of this book are some of the most well-respected names in the world for drilling. The first edition, Shale Shakers and Drilling Fluid Systems, was only on shale shakers, a very important piece of machinery on a drilling rig that removes drill cuttings. The original book has been much expanded to include many other aspects of drilling solids control, including chapters on drilling fluids, cut-point curves, mud cleaners, and many other pieces of equipment that were not covered in the original book.

Formulas and Calculations for Drilling, Production and Workover By Norton J. Lapeyrouse

The most complete manual of its kind, this handy book gives you all the formulas and calculations you are likely to need in drilling operations. New updated material includes conversion tables into metric. Separate chapters deal with calculations for drilling fluids, pressure control, and engineering. Example calculations are provided throughout. Presented in easy-to-use, step-by-step order, Formulas and Calculations is a quick reference for day-to-day work out on the rig. It also serves as a handy study guide for drilling and well control certification courses. Virtually all the mathematics required out on the drilling rig is here in one convenient source, including formulas for pressure gradient, specific gravity, pump output, annular velocity, buoyancy factor, volume and stroke, slug weight, drill string design, cementing, depth of washout, bulk density of cuttings, and stuck pipe.

Blowout and Well Control Handbook By Robert D. Grace

As with his 1994 book, Advanced Blowout and Well Control, Grace offers a book that presents tested practices and procedures for well control, all based on solid engineering principles and his own more than 25 years of hands-on field experience. Specific situations are reviewed along with detailed procedures to analyze alternatives and tackle problems. The use of fluid dynamics in well control, which the author pioneered, is given careful treatment, along with many other topics such as relief well operations, underground blowouts, slim hole drilling problems, and special services such as fire fighting, capping, and snubbing. In addition, case histories are presented, analyzed, and discussed.

Contents

1. Equipment in Well Control 2. Classic Pressure Control Procedures While Drilling 3. Pressure Control Procedures While Tripping 4. Special Conditions, Problems, and Procedures in Well Control 5. Fluid Dynamics in Well Control 6. Special Services in Well Control 7. Relief Well Design and Operations 8. The Underground Blowout 9. The Al-Awda Project: The Oil Fires of Kuwait 10. Index

Advanced Blowout and Well Control By Robert D. Grace

In petroleum industry drilling operations even the most simple blowout can kill people and cost millions of dollars in equipment losses - and millions more in environmental damage and ensuing litigation. Government environmental and safety requirements demand that operating companies and drilling contractor personnel be rigorously trained in well control procedures and in responding to blowouts when they occur.
The book reviews classical pressure control procedures. In addition, specific situations are presented along with detailed procedure to analyze alternatives and tackle problems. The use of fluid dynamics in well control, which the author pioneered, is given careful treatment, along with many other topics such as relief well operations, underground blowouts, slim hole drilling problems, and special services such as fire fighting, capping, and snubbing. Case histories are presented, analyzed, and discussed.
