  2. Casing (borehole) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casing_(borehole)

    Casing that is cemented in place aids the drilling process in several ways: [2] Prevents contamination of fresh water well zones. Prevents unstable upper formations from caving in and sticking the drill string or forming large caverns. Provides a strong upper foundation to allow use of high-density drilling fluid to continue drilling deeper.

  3. Wellhead - Wikipedia

    Provide a means of casing suspension (Casing is the permanently installed pipe used to line the well hole for pressure containment and collapse prevention during the drilling phase). Provides a means of tubing suspension (Tubing is removable pipe installed in the well through which well fluids pass).

  4. Borehole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borehole

    A water resources borehole into the chalk aquifer under the North Downs, England at Albury. Engineers and environmental consultants use the term borehole to collectively describe all of the various types of holes drilled as part of a geotechnical investigation or environmental site assessment (a so-called Phase II ESA).

  5. Well drilling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_drilling

    Well drilling is the process of drilling a hole in the ground for the extraction of a natural resource such as ground water, brine, natural gas, or petroleum, for the injection of a fluid from surface to a subsurface reservoir or for subsurface formations evaluation or monitoring.

  6. Casing string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casing_string

    Casing is run to protect or isolate formations adjacent to the wellbore. It is generally not possible to drill a well through all of the formations from surface (or the seabed) to the target depth in one hole-size section. For example, fresh-water-bearing zones (usually found only near the surface) must be protected soon after being penetrated.

  8. Completion (oil and gas wells) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completion_(oil_and_gas_wells)

    Sometimes, the process of running in and cementing the casing is also included. After a well has been drilled, should the drilling fluids be removed, the well would eventually close in upon itself. Casing ensures that this will not happen while also protecting the wellstream from outside incumbents, like water or sand. [1] Perforated shoe
