2. Well control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_control

   To determine the fracture gradient around the casing shoe and therefore establish the upper limit of the primary well control for the open hole section below the current casing. To investigate well bore capability to withstand pressure below the casing shoe in order to test the well engineering plan regarding the casing shoe setting depth.

3. Oil well control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_well_control

   As technology has advanced, more modern drillers have better control of the overall well. Oil well control is the management of the dangerous effects caused by the unexpected release of formation fluid, such as natural gas and/or crude oil, upon surface equipment of oil or gas drilling rigs and escaping into the atmosphere.

4. Completion (oil and gas wells) - Wikipedia

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

   The tubing may also have flow control mechanism. Single-well concentric kill string: within the well a small diameter concentric kill string is used to circulate kill fluids when needed. Single-well 2-tubing completion: in this instance 2 tubing strings are inserted down 1 well. They are connected at the lower end by a circulating head.

5. Depth in a well - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_in_a_well

   Well depth values from the wireline loggers operation are referred to as "logger's depth". The loggers depth are typically considered more reliable than the drillers depth. The differences between loggers and drillers depths are due to different stretch in the drilling string when drilling, and the wire line entered into the bore hole during ...

6. Casing (borehole) - Wikipedia

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

   The purpose of surface casing is to isolate freshwater zones so that they are not contaminated during drilling and completion. Surface casing is the most strictly regulated due to these environmental concerns, which can include regulation of casing depth and cement quality. A typical size of surface casing is 13 + 3 ⁄ 8 inches (340 mm). [5]

7. MAASP - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAASP

   In this well, the outside casing of the 'B' annulus is 13 + 3 ⁄ 8 in (340 mm) N80 grade with a weight of 68 lb⋅ft (92 N⋅m) −1. The burst pressure of this casing is 5020 psi. 1.2 sg brine produces a pressure gradient of 0.52 psi.ft −1 (see Well kill for the mathematical basics of hydrostatic heads). Therefore, the column of brine ...

8. Production tubing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_tubing

   Production casing is the final casing string set in a well and usually reaches from the surface to Target Depth (TD). The type of casing used depends upon the different conditions in the well. Commonly, production casing sizes range from 4 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (110 mm) to as large as 9 + 5 ⁄ 8 in (240 mm). It is the last string cemented in a well ...

9. Perforation (oil well) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perforation_(oil_well)

   In cased hole completions, the well will be drilled down past the section of the formation desired for production and will have casing or a liner run in separating the formation from the well bore. The final stage of the completion will involve running in perforating guns, a string of shaped charges, down to the desired depth and firing them to ...
