Well control for a drilling team


The objective of this manual is to provide a good understanding of the fundamentals of Well Control that can be applied to most Well Control operations. In all cases, minimising the kick volume and closing the well in is our first priority.


This manual describes industry recognised standards and practices and basic Well Control procedures. They differ from our advanced Well Control methods which tend to be well, formation, or rig specific. The manual covers the guidelines found in API 59 and API 53 along with the International Well Control Forum syllabus.


All Well Control principles rely upon an understanding that good planning and early recognition and close-in is the best form of Well Control. Not all kicks are swabbed kicks; many wells are drilled into unknown formation. It is recognised that equipment can fail despite all the correct procedures being followed. This is why you will find the equipment section comprehensive and useful for general trouble shooting ideas.

Completion technology for unconsolidated formations


The completion phase of well operations begins when drilling is completed, and ends when the well is brought on production. Typical completion operations include, but are not restricted to, perforating, placing gravel packs, acidizing, fracturing and setting production tubing and packers. The goal of these operations is to obtain a well which has a productivity that is not limited by the completion itself. While this sounds easy to accomplish, completion techniques are commonly used in many parts of the world that restrict the productivity of the well.


The purpose of this manual is to provide information on completion techniques for maximizing productivity and longevity of gravel packed wells. To achieve this purpose, the factors that can have a negative effect on the flow of fluids from a well should be understood. The nature of fluid flow towards a wellbore and a description of the potential restrictions to production are described.

Casing design manual


This document, one of the Well Engineering and Production Operations (WEPO) technical control documents, contains the BG Group policies and standards to be adopted for well casing design. The objective is to ensure that there is a consistent approach to the safety critical aspects of casing design methodology throughout the BG Group.


Casing design is a stress analysis procedure to produce a pressure vessel, which can withstand a variety of external, internal, thermal and self weight loading. It is an integral and key part of the total well design process. The ideal casing design for any particular well, is one that is the most economic over the entire life of the well without compromising safety and the environment.

Casing Design. Theory and practice


At a certain stage during the drilling of oil and gas wells. it becomes necessary to line the walls of a borehole with steel pipe which is called casing. Casing serves numerous purposes during the drilling and production history of oil and gas wells, these include:


  1. Keeping the hole open by preventing the weak format ions from collapsing. i.e., caving of the hole.
  2. Serving as a high strength flow conduit to surface for both drilling and production fluids.
  3. Protecting the freshwater-bearing formations from contamination by drilling and production fluids.
  4. Providing a suitable support for wellhead equipment and blowout preventers for controlling subsurface pressure. and for the iristallation of tubing and sulxurface equipment.
  5. Providing safe passage for running wireline equipment
  6. Allowing isolated comunication whit selectivrely perforated foriiiation(s) of interest.

Well Engineering and Construction


Hence the emphasis will be placed on the practical utilisation of pore pressure in the well planning process. It is hoped that the ideas presented here will help the engineer to better understand lithological columns and deduce potential hole problems before producing a final well plan.


Knowledge of formation pressures is vital to the safe planning of a well. Accurate values of formation pressures are used to design safe mud weights to overcome fracturing the formation and prevent well kicks. The process of designing and selection of casing weights/grades is predominately dependent on the utilisation of accurate values of formation pressure. Cementing design, kick control, selection of wellhead and Xmas trees and even the rig rating are dependent on the formation pressures encountered in the well.

Well Cementing


Without adequate zonal isolation, wells are unlikely to reach their full producing potential. The ultimate goal of cementing is to provide well integrity through zonal isolation—a durable hydraulic seal in the wellbore that allows selective fluid production from subsurface formations and prevents leaks into other formations or to the surface. As production companies pursue reserves in high-cost, high-risk environments, well cementing and sustained wellbore integrity are increasingly critical to the success of the reservoir exploitation cycle.


Well cementing draws on several disciplines, including chemistry, mechanical engineering, fluid mechanics, mathematics, and geology. Industry experts in these disciplines have updated and expanded the classic 1990 text to create this comprehensive reference book, edited by Erik Nelson and Dominique Guillot, and published by Schlumberger. The book is intended for oilfield technical professionals as well as university students. Well Cementing, Second Edition, describes current cementing technologies in clear, detailed text liberally supported by full-color illustrations and photographs.
