Using Combined Load Chart For Stuck Pipe Situation

When the drill string get stuck, there are several ways to free the string as using Jar (up and/or down), straight pull, working torque down, etc. Pulling stuck pipe with torque in the drill string is one of those technique which often utilize to free the stuck drill string. However, there are some concerns that you should know before doing this because torque in the string will reduce a tensile capacity of tubular. This is very important to read and understand the combined load chart (Torque‐Tension Graph) in order to determine the limitation before pulling the pipe.

For this example, we use 5” DP, S-135, NC50 (4-1/2” IF connection) to be a reference figure.

Pipe information

  • Pipe Size and Weight: 5.000″ 19.50ppf 0.362″ wall IEU
  • Pipe Grade: S-135
  • Range: 2
  • Tool Joint: 6.625″ X 3.250″ NC50
  • Tool Joint 120,000 psi Material Yield Strength
  • Premium class

Determine Stuck Pipe Depth Based on Real Example

This is the real example of how to determine stuck depth using the stuck depth calculation.

Well Information:

  • TD = 8,900’MD/5,600’ TVD
  • Bit Size = 8.5”
  • Drilling fluid = water based mud (PHPA system)
  • Formation: sand shale sequence
  • BHA: 7” mud motor + 9 stands of 5” HWDP S-135, 4-1/2” IF connection
  • Drillstring: 5” DP S135, 4-1/2” IF connection
  • Neutral weight @ 6,850’MD = 175 Klb

While tripping out of hole to 6,850’MD, observe over pull 40 Klb over pick up weight. Stop tripping out and attempt to go down no issue. Attempt to rotate, pipe is able to rotate at 30K ft-lb. Attempt to circulate, observe restricted flow.

Well Construction Objectives for Exploration Wells, Appraisal Wells and Development Wells

Well planning, design and construction phases are mainly concerned with three objectives:

  1. Well objectives as producing or exploring.
  2. Environmental and Safety Objectives
  3. Total expenditure and budget of the project

The above mentioned objectives do not come with standard specific goals and vary based on the location and environment of operations. The planning team has to correctly identify all the goals and factors that influence the project.

Well-Objectives-and-Success-Factors-For-Well-Planning

The first step of well planning is Well Proposal or Statement of Requirements and it is mainly concerned with the Exploration and Reservoir Engineering Department. The contents of this document include the specific objectives of the well and are can be classified as Exploration, Appraisal or Development. Continue reading
