  2. Well control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well_control

    = Pressure under static condition + Pressure due to pumping at that point or pressure loss in the system. If we convert pressure under circulating condition in the annulus to its density equivalent it will be called ECD Dividing the above equation by 0.052*TVD into both sides:- ECD = (Pressure under static condition + Annular pressure loss ...

  3. Oil well control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_well_control

    Bottom-hole pressure (BHP) is the pressure at the bottom of a well. The pressure is usually measured at the bottom of the hole. This pressure may be calculated in a static, fluid-filled wellbore with the equation: BHP = D × ρ × C, where BHP = bottom-hole pressure D = the vertical depth of the well ρ = density C = units conversion factor

  4. Static pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_pressure

    At least one author takes a different approach in order to avoid a need for the expression freestream static pressure. Gracey has written "The static pressure is the atmospheric pressure at the flight level of the aircraft". [15] [16] Gracey then refers to the air pressure at any point close to the aircraft as the local static pressure.

  5. BP Says Gulf of Mexico Oil Well in 'Static Condition' - AOL

    www.aol.com/2010/08/04/bp-says-gulf-of-mexico...

    BP (BP) said its ruptured well in the Gulf of Mexico reached a "static condition," with the well pressure brought under control. The pressure was stabilized by the so-called static kill process of ...

  6. Hydraulic head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_head

    In fluid dynamics, head is a concept that relates the energy in an incompressible fluid to the height of an equivalent static column of that fluid. From Bernoulli's principle, the total energy at a given point in a fluid is the kinetic energy associated with the speed of flow of the fluid, plus energy from static pressure in the fluid, plus energy from the height of the fluid relative to an ...

  7. Drawdown (hydrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawdown_(hydrology)

    Static level is the level of water in the well when no water is being removed from the well by pumping. [8] Water table is the upper level of the zone of saturation, an underground surface in which the soil or rock is permanently saturated with water. [9] Well yield is the volume of water per unit time that is produced by the well from pumping. [8]

  8. Blowout preventer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowout_preventer

    In drilling a typical high-pressure well, drill strings are routed through a blowout preventer stack toward the reservoir of oil and gas. As the well is drilled, drilling fluid , "mud", is fed through the drill string down to the drill bit, "blade", and returns up the wellbore in the ring-shaped void, annulus , between the outside of the drill ...

  9. Trailing cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailing_Cone

    It does this by giving an accurate measurement of the ambient atmospheric pressure (static pressure) well clear of the aircraft's fuselage. [2] The trailing cone system trails at least one fuselage length behind the aircraft (SpaceAge Control) via a high-strength pressure tube.
