Volumetric Method /10 0 votes, 0 avg 4 Created on March 09, 2023 Volumetric Method Math quiz helps us to increase our knowledge 1 / 10 Use the scenario below to answer the following question: Gas kick taken and well closed. SIDPP = 0 psi (solid float) SICP = 500 psi Gas migration is increasing wellbore pressures. Circulation is not possible. The volumetric method will be used to offset the effects of the gas migration. SICP = 500 psi Working pressure = 150 psi Mud Weight = 11 ppg Drill Pipe capacity = 0.01776 bblf/ft Drill Pipe x Casing capacity = 0.0489 bblf/ft Use the information above to calculate the volume of mud that should be bled off throught the choke per step: 12.8 bbls 42.7 bbls 15.5 bbls 4.6 bbls 2 / 10 Which of the following statements best describe the Volumetric Method? Maintains constant bottom hole pressure as the gas kick migrates to the surface Maintains constant bottom hole pressure as the water kick migrates to the surface Maintains the pressure insite the kick constant as the kick is migrating to the surface Maintains the hydrostatic pressure in the annulus constant as the kick is migrating to the surface 3 / 10 The well is closed on a kick. SIDPP = 500 psi SICP = 700 psi Both pressures are rising due to gas migration. If the drill pipe pressure is held constant at 500 psi, what will happen to the bottom hole pressure (BHP)? Increase Decrease There is no way to know Stay the same 4 / 10 The well has been shut-in on a kick and the kill operation has not started. SIDPP = 500 psi SICP = 700 psi After stabilization, both pressures begin to increase due to gas migration. If the casing pressure is kept constant at 700 psi, what will happen to bottom hole pressure? BHP will increase BHP will decrease BHP will stay the same There is no way to know 5 / 10 Slow pump pressure = 400 psi at 40 SPM The well is shut-in on a kick. SIDPP = 500 and SICP = 800 Before starting to circulate the kick out, there is a pump failure. Assuming there is no float valve in the drill string, what surface pressure should be kept constant in order to compensate the effects of the gas migration and maintain the correct bottom hole pressure? 900 psi drill pipe pressure 400 psi casing pressure 500 psi drill pipe pressure 800 psi casing pressure 6 / 10 A gas kick is swabbed-in while pulling out of the hole and, after stabilization, the kick is migrating. Once circulation is not possible at the moment, what well control method can be used to offset the gas migration? Driller's Method Wait and Weight Method Volumetric Method Lubricate and Bleed 7 / 10 Use the scenario below to answer the following question: The well has been shut-in on a kick. SIDPP = 400 psi SICP = 900 psi Gas is migrating while waiting to start the kill operation. If the casing pressure is kept constant, what will happen to the bottom hole pressure? It will decrease It will increase It will stay the same There is no way to know 8 / 10 Use the scenario below to answer the following question: The well has been shut-in on a kick. SIDPP = 500 psi SICP = 800 psi Gas is migrating while waiting to start the kill operation. If the drill pipe pressure is kept constant, what will happen to the bottom hole pressure? It will decrease It will increase It will stay the same There is no way to know 9 / 10 Use the scenario below to answer the following question: Gas kick taken and well closed.

SIDPP = 500 psi SICP = 700 psi After stabilization, both pressures begin to increase due to gas migration. If the drill pipe pressure is kept constant at 700 psi, what will happen to bottom hole pressure?
