Q1) IF we found that leak off test is not ok, then whats next step

Ans 1) If Leak Off Test is not ok, this means cementing is not proper atcasing shoe. You will have to go for cement repair. This can be done bycement squeez/plug job.

Q2) IF we are running two mud pump at same spm, but spm of one mudpump is not remaining stable at same spm, what can be the reason?

Ans 2) A very good question. Fluctuation or instability in pump SPM cantell you a lot about pump condition. Timely detection and fittingcorrective action can save you rig time and money. Now coming to yourquestion (actually I should dedicate a complete post for this, anyways inshort)unstable pump SPM, fluctuations of pump SPM can be of twotypes. First, rapid fluctuations and second, slow and gradual fluctuations.

Rapid Fluctuations: These are mainly due to mechanical problems whichcan be, worn out valve ring, valve, valve seat, piston ring and in worst caseworn out wear plate and liner. You should stop the pump immediatelyand make a check for the things as mentioned in order. And if there areany indications of pump taking air then you should check the mudstrainer in suction line.

Gradual Fluctuations: These are mainly due to electrical and downholeproblems. There may be problem in SCR, Motor Field or you are runningnear the load limit. Downhole problem like improper hole cleaning canalso cause the SPM or pressure fluctuations. For electrical problemscheck the concerned electrical devices and for hole cleaning problempump a lo-hi pill (low viscous mud followed by high viscous mud) andresume drilling after surface to bit time.

Q3) In question 18 on your posthttp://www.knowenergysolutions.com/2012/03/iwcf-well-control-principles-and-practices-questionsAccording to the formula given:13 x 0.052 x 0.0080 / (0.0744-0.0080) = 0.08144Now, 0.08144 X 15stnds X 88ft. = 107.508 pYes, you got it right.

Q4) What is the main factor that determines the rate of build-up tostabilized SIDPP & SICPP once the well is shut-in?a) Friction lossesb)Gas migrationc) Permeability

Can someone plz answer and explain

Ans) For IWCF answer should be permeability because he is asking aboutinitial pressure stablization (when well is just shut in) afterwards it wouldbe due to gas migration. So if it shows up in exam mark permeability ascorrect answer as in IWCF answer key they use permeability as correctanswer.

Q5) One more practice question : Which of the following parametersmight be affected by permeability of formation (select three answers)?a)SICPb)Bottom hole pressurec) SIDPP



d)The time taken to stabilise the shut in pressures.e)Volume of influx

Answer : a,d,e

Q6) Select the good operating practices from the list (THREE) while drillingtop hole section.a) Maintain as high overbalance as possible.b) Maintain high drilling ratec) Maintain mud density as low as possible.d) Continue to circulate when picking up for connection.e) Circulate at maximum rate to create highest possible ECD.f) Control drilling rate to avoid overloading the annulus with cuttings.

Answer 6)I think answers are c,d,f because while drilling in top hole section :formation is weak so we have to keep mud density as low as possible,chances of shallow gas are there so continue to circulate when picking upfor connection, controlling drilling rate to avoid overloading of annuluswith cuttings.

Q 7) Vertical well is drilled to 9000 ft. with 11.7 ppg mud.Pump speed: 70 spm.Pressure loss in surface equip.= 140 psi; press. loss in drill string = 800psi;press. loss in annulus = 100 psi; pressure loss at bit nozzle = 1400psi.

a) Calculate BHP when mud is circulated at 70 SPM?b) Calculate eqvlt circulating density.

BHP= hydrostatic pressure + annular losses= 0.052x 900011.7 + 100= 5575.6 psiECD = APL/(.052*TVD) + mud wt= 100/(.052*9000) + 11.7= 11.913

Q 8) When circulating out a kick in a deep well with a deep set casingshoe, the choke pressure approached MAASP while the influx is still inopen hole. What is the most important action to take?

Ans 8) You have to bleed through choke. SO that surface pressure goesbelow MAASP and ZUBIN can you like this website on facebook and askyour friends interested in IWCF to share their doubts so that we cancreate a group of interested people in IWCF field.

In instrumentation section there will be questions on BOPs, MGS, InsideBOp, FOSV, Rated working pressure,koomey control unit and may be 1-2question on accumalator bottles. It will take us time to upload questionson instrumentation section but if you have any query you can post it herewe will try our best to solve your queries.

Q 10) All influx will be displaced from the hole at a pump rateconsiderably slower than that used while drilling. Select the correctreasons for this from the list below:

One of the options is To have minimum pressure being exerted on theopen hole.I think it will be one of the correct reasons, since slower pump rate meansless annular pressure losses and hence less BHP. Is that correct?

Ans10) Yes that is correct logic.!

Q 11) While circulating out a kick, the pump speed is increased keepingSIDPP constant. What will happen to the BHP.a) Increaseb) Decreasec) Remains Same(Plz explain the reason).

Ans 10) According to me it should remain same as BHP = SIDPP +



hydrostatic head of mud in string.As SIDPP is constant and IN iwcf we assume mud remains uniform instring so BHP should remain constant.

people who asked question : Exactly what I thought. However theTransocean Q&A from where I got this question says it will DECREASE. Icannot understand how

Q11) A kick is being circulated out at 35 SPM, SIDP is 650 psi, SICP is 1050psi. What would happen to BHP if pump is slowed down keeping SICPconstant.a) Increase (b) Decrease (c) Stay the samePlz analyzeReplyAns 11)

Q12) One more gud question : Where is the mud loss first noticed duringthe time of drilling?a) on the mud pressure gaugeb) on the return flow meter.c)In the mud pits P.V.T(Pit volume totalizer)d) From the loggers chart.

Ans) on the return flow meter because it will tell instant change in themud volume.

Q13) Which of the following equipment may warn of increase information pressure while drilling overbalance? (3 ANSWERS)a) ROP meterb) Pump pressure guagec) Flow line temp guaged)SPM countere) Gas Detectorf) Return flow meter

I think c,e,f. Plz confirm.

Ans13) It is a) c) e) Return flow meter is a positive kick sign.See thedifference between early warning sign and positive kick signs write if youdont get any material on them I will write more about it.

Your Diagnosis of problems are correctProblem 1 : Nozzle plugging Symptoms : D/pipe Pr.: Increasing, Casingpressure :ConstantProblem 2 : Choke plugged : D/ pipe pr.: Increses, Casing pressure:IncreasesProblem 3 : Choke Washout : D/ Pipe Pr : Decreases, Casing Pr :DecreasesProblem 4 : Pump Failure : D/ Pipe Pr : Decreases, Casing Pr : Decreases (No sound of pump in simulator)

As while killing nozzle is plugged in question 1 so bottom hole pressurewill remain same because we will calculate from annulus side becauseafter nozzle plugging We hold Casing Pressure Constant and then bringpump down and Close Choke.Identify the problem and bring SIDP atoriginal value. Keeping casing Pr. Constant bring pump to kill speed.Maintain new drill pipe pressure constant. Also change in reading in drillpipe pressure gauge is due to nozzle plugging ( As more pressure is lost innozzle due to plugging) and as annular friction losses are same BHP willremain same,

As choke is plugged in case 2 : Action to be taken are :Stop pump immediately and close HCR.Identify the problem bring the SIDP at original value.Line up alternate choke and HCR.Keeping casing Pr. Constant bring pump to kill speed.Maintain Drill pipe pressure constant.Because of choke plugging annular friction losses have increased by 200psi in case 2 so BHP should increase by 200 psi.We are working on a kill sheet application which will help you in practicing

kill sheet and also will post some questions on instrumentation section. Inthe meantime you can focus on BOP figures, koomey control unitfigures,pipe ram figure according to course.

Q14) Stack config: (from top to bottom) Annular=>> 5 Pipe ram=>>Blind/Shear=>> 3 1/2 Pipe ram =>> Drilling spool.With the drill string hung-off on the 31/2 rams, can the annular berepaired?Plz Explain hung off.Reply

q15) With the drill string hung-off on the 31/2 rams, can the outerchoke line valve be repaired?Yes/No

q16) With the drill string hung-off on the 5 rams, can the annular berepaired?yes/no

Ans 14) no as drilling spool is below 3 1/2 ram outer choke line valve cantbe repaired.

Ans 15) yes as it is above on 5 RAn from where drill string is hung offannular can be repaired.

Ans 16) hung off means 3 1/2 inch ram is closed and stringis hung on thisram BOP. so joints below it cant be repaired.Annular can be repaired.Modify message

Steve says:

Ans 11. BHP = hydrostatic head of mud + pump pressure drillpipefriction. Drillpipe friction INCREASES with pump rate. Therefore tomaintain the same BHP when the pump rate is increased the drillpipepressure has to increase.

Ehis says:

how was qestion #33 solved?

Ehis says:

sorry I mearnt how was question #32 solved not #33

admin says:

Since annulus is filled with original mud so change in BHP is zero. now ifyou want to calculate from string side you will calcluate length of slug volumeand original mud column in string by applying U-tube principle at bottom. Butif you can get it directly from annulus why to apply it from string side.

hi, could you please check this spreadsheet for Q44 and let me knowwhats wrong, because i got 41 stands instead of 39 (answer)

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5jacc0BFOXvX1lqMFN4TlBtYmM/edit?usp=sharing

admin says:

Rather than using spreadsheet calculate by using formula as spreadsheetmay be prepared according to different set of values.

alvis says:

what is the formula for Q55?

admin says:

Pump pressure is directly proportional to mud weight and square of pumpSPM . Here pump spm is constant 30 so New pressure = (New mudweight*old Pump pressure)/old mud weight

steven aitken says:

Can you please explain on question 16 why a small influx will increase thechances of exceeding MAASP???????

admin says:

Sorry answer would be large influx will increase the chances of exceeding theMAASP. We have rectified answers.

HERISH says:

please can some one answer me?

while gas migrate up the well after a period time of shut in . in order tokeep BHP constant why should i depend on SIDPP constant to migratethe gas, before i begin to kill the well ..

admin says:

As There is homegenous column of mud in string. It is assumed that influxenters annulus at is least resistance path. So SIDPP + Hydrostatic Pr of MUDin string= Bottom Hole Pressure.
