Determine Bottom Hole Pressure from Wellhead Pressure in a Dry Gas Well
Gas behaves differently from fluid therefore you cannot use a simple hydrostatic formula to determine reservoir pressure. Gas is compressible but fluid is incompressible.
The formula to determine the bottom hole pressure of dry gas well is shown below;
Where; Pbh = bottom hole pressure in psia (absolute pressure)
Pwh = wellhead pressure in psia (absolute pressure)
H = true vertical depth of the well
Sg = specific gravity of gas
R = 53.36 ft-lb/lb-R (gas constant for API standard condition air)
Tav = average temperature in Rankin (Rankin = Fahrenheit + 460) Continue reading

Magnetic and Gravity Toolface and How To Interpret The Meaning For Directional Drilling
Magnetic and gravity tooสface are terms in directional drilling world to describe the direction of the well. They are different in meaning and application therefore this article will teach you about these terminologies and how to read it.
Magnetic Toolface
The magnetic toolface is an angle projection onto the horizontal plane between the tool face and magnetic north. Typically, directional tools use the magnetic tool face when the inclination is less than 5 degree. The Figure 1 demonstrates that the mud motor is lined up to kick off at 30 degree azimuth magnetic.
Figure 1 – Magnetic Toolface Continue reading
