Drilling software for mud engineer
Basic Drilling Calculation For Mud Engineer is very important for mud ingineer
which include
Pressure Gradient
Hydrostatic pressure
Specific Gravity Of Mud
Hydrostatic Pressure is created by fluid column and two factor effecting of the hydrostatic pressure
True Vericle Depth of hole and Mud Weight
Hydrostatic Pressure increase with increasing Mud Weight and True Verticle Depth
HP=.052 * Mud Weight *Trur Verticle Depth
Example: mud weight = 10.5 ppg
True Vertical Depth = 12,000 ft
HP = 10.5 ppg x 0.052 x 12,000 ft
HP = 6552 psi
Specific Gravity Of Mud
Is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance
Mud weight increase by increasing sp.gr which increase the hydrostatic pressure
Pressure Gradient
Pressure gradient = mud weight x 0.052
Example
Mud weigt = 10.5 ppg
Pressure gradient in psi/ft = 10.5 x 0.052
Pressure gradient in psi/ft = .545 psi/ft
This software can help mud engineer for all operation of mud Calculation
