High permeability formations with water based mud B. Low permeability formations with oil based mud C. Low permeability formations with water based mud D. High permeability formations with oil based mud 2 / 4 2. How can wellbore total pressure affect non-aqueous (oil-based) mud density downhole? A. Well depth will not affect the mud density downhole B. Increasing hydrostatic pressure downhole can increase effective mud density in the well C. Increasing hydrostatic pressure downhole can decrease effective mud density in the well D. It iOnly the density of water-based fluids will be affected by the total pressure in the wellbores impossible to know 3 / 4 3. Oil-based mud has a higher compressibility. How does the mud compressibility affect the lagging time between choke adjustments and drill pipe pressure changes? A. Decrease the time B. There is no way to know C. Has no effect on the time D. Increase the time 4 / 4 4. What happens to the primary well control barrier when drilling into an abnormally pressured formation? A. It will decrease the hydrostatic pressure overbalanace B. It is impossible to know C. It will increase the hydrostatic pressure overbalance D. It will not change the primary well control Your score is LinkedIn Facebook Twitter VKontakte 0% Restart quiz Please rate this quiz Send feedback
