Conventional Drilling vs Annular Pressure Control (APC) Drilling
Conventional drilling basically uses two bottomhole pressures whendrilling
A high when pumps are on (ECD)
A low when pumps are off (like on connections - no ECD)
If the high BHP approaches fracture pressure, losses and/orballooning occurs.
If the lower BHP is too low, influx, high connection gas and/orborehole instability can all occur.
The problems associated with low BHP are further exaggerated whenpipe is pulled and swab occurs.
By using annular pressure control, a single BHP is used which is abovethe conventional low (when pumps are off), yet below theconventional high (when circulating).
A single optimum pressure is used and the problems associated withconventional drilling are largely mitigated.

Communications
Good communication between the Driller and @Balance is critical.
All communication over the radio must be clear and coherent.
Ensure the radio button is pressed before you start talking
Address the person first before giving the instruction. Confirm that you heard the instruction, repeat back if necessary.
Do not cut in on a radio conversation unless very critical.
Do not hold idle chat on the radios. They are for operations purpose only,not to discuss lunch or crew changes.

At around 4500 m MD:
T Annulus = T Formation
When Circulation Stops:
Depth > 4500 m MD
T Decrease => DensityIncrease
Depth < 4500 m MD
T Increase => DensityDecrease
This results in an increase inESD @ TD

Decreasing annular friction losses:
Open the hole to a larger diameter(Hole opened to 9
diameter)
Use a tapered drill string (incorporated 2000 m of 4 DP in the drill string) (Negligible effect on ECD)
Decrease the Flow Rate (Decreased from 500 gpm to450 gpm)
Use a lower Rheology (To be evaluated)

MPD Objectives
Drill intervals with a single, near constant BHP which issafely below FG to mitigate losses
Kick and loss detection is enhanced by the use of the AtBalance kick/loss detection system using a mass/flow meterinstalled in line down stream of the chokes
Formation ballooning is controlled by dynamically holding APon the wellbore annulus when making connections.
Hole instability caused by bottomhole pressure fluctuationsthat flex and relax the formation during pump on/off cyclesis minimized.
Constant annular pressure when stripping drill pipe outthrough the Rotating Control Device can be maintained whilepulling out of the hole to mitigate swab.
MPD techniques used for planning trips and placement of tripweight mud and swab-surge mitigation.

Watch the Cuttings!!!
Cuttings are easy to recognize when drilling with PDC bit
Splintered cuttings if underbalanced
Tabular cuttings from bedding planes
Angular, blocky cuttings from stress induced instability
Watch for Changes!! - Shaker hand may be most important guy on rig

Managing Swab - Surge
One of the Keys to Success
When the drill string is picked up to make aconnection or trip out of the hole, the mud in theannulus must fall to replace the volume of pipepulled from the well
The hydrostatic pressure is momentarily reducedwhile the mud is falling in the annulus (negativeECD).
Surge is the opposite - Acts like ECD.

Swab/Surge
4 1/2 DP Displacement = =0.0082bbl/ft
Pull 90 Drill Pipe in 3 minutes
4 1/2 DP X 8 5/8 casing = 0.0305bbl/ft
Annular Velocity = 8 fpm
P = 2 psi per stand
If we are pulling 230 stands = 460 psilower BHP
Typical Misconceptions
That the bit & stabs cause the swab -piston effect
Swab is not felt all the way to TD
Swab effect - .2 ppg @ 3 mins a stand

Ballooning
-
7/27/2019 Rig Crew for Petronas Level 2
34/73
Ballooning
Can be attributed to mud being lost into fractures --- or ---
Can be attributed to the elasticity of the formation thatballoons the well by the amount of annular friction
When pumps are stopped and there is no annular friction ---
Fractures close up and squeeze mud back into the hole -- or ---
The wellbore returns to the original size
By using CBHP MPD, ballooning goes away since BHP is thesame if pumps are on or pumps are off
Fractures are charged to ECD BHP - If pumps are shut downand well is shut in; pressure can increase to difference between
ECD and static - Appears to be under balance condition

Ballooning
Ballooning Misinterpreted as flow fail to bleed-offadd weight Repeat cycle induce losses
potentially induce well control as a result of lost
mud column.

ATBALANCE FLOWOUT WILL DECREASE INDICATING DOWNHOLE LOSSES
BUT ELEMENT COULD BE LEAKING.
IF LEAKING, RETURNS LEAK BY ELEMENT & OVER TOP RCH & INTOPOLLUTION PAN.
WILL SEE DROP IN FLOWOUT ON ATBALANCE FLOW METER
WILL SEE FLOW FROM POLLUTION PAN.
MAINTAIN BHP IN WELL.
DEVELOP STRATEGY FOR WHEN TO CHANGE OUT THE ELEMENT
USUALLY A TOOL JOINT IN THE ELEMENT WILL HELP SEAL IT AND ALLOW
ATBALNCE TO ADD ANNULAR PRESSURE DURING RIG PUMP RAMP DOWN IN
ORDER TO TRAP PRESSURE FOR ELEMENT CHANGE OUT.
THE GOAL, IS TO DRILL THE ENTIRE HOLE SECTION WITHOUT CHANGING THEELEMENT.
IF THE ELEMENT LEAKS WHEN DRILLING w/o ANNULAR PRESSURE, BUT WILL
NORMALLY HOLD WHEN PRESSURE IS APPLIED, WHICH ALLOWS US TO
CHANGE OUT ELEMENT WHILE HOLDING PRESSURE UNDER THE ANNULAR

10. LOSS OF STROKE COUNTER
ATBALANCE SYSTEM THINKS RIG PUMP HAS GONE DOWN WHEN PUMP IS
STILL REALLY PUMPING.
CHOKES COULD AUTOMATICALLY TRY TO CLOSE AND ADD BACK PRESSURE
TRYING TO MAINTAIN CBHP LEADING TO AN OVER PRESSURE EVENT.
NEED REDUNDANT STROKE COUNTERS-ATBALANCE INSTALLS THEIR OWN
ATBALANCE SHOULD IMMEDIATELY GO TO MANUAL MODE IF SPM
MALFUNCTIONS
ATBALANCE SHOULD USE WITS SPM ON RIG DATA SYSTEM SO EVERYONE IS
USING THE SAME STROKE COUNTERS.
DRILLER THEN CAN ALARM SPM AND IF THE STROKE COUNTER SUDDENLY
GOES TO 0 THE DRILLER SHOULD BRING THE RIG PUMP OFF LINE UNTIL
ATBALANCE GET THEIR CHOKES IN THE MANUAL OPEN POSITION.

11. DRILL STRING WASHOUT OR PART
WHEN THE PART OR WASH OCCURS THE B HP WILL DECREASE DUETO LOSS OF CIRCULATION.
THE AMOUNT OF BHP LOSS WILL DEPEND ON THE DEPTH THAT THE
WASH OR PART OCCURRED.
DEVELOP A TRIPPING PLAN. (WEIGHT UP MUD ? HOW MUCH MUD WILLBE CIRCULATED).
IF THE WASH OR PART IS ABOVE THE FLOAT (NRV) IT WILL BE
DIFFICULT TO STRIP OUT OF THE HOLE.
MAY BE ABLE TO PUMP BPV TO PROFILE SUB AT THE TOP OF THEHWDP, THEN STRIP-OUT HOLDING ANNULAR PRESSURE.
THERE WILL BE SEVERAL SCENARIOS BASED ON THE DETAILS OF
THE PROBLEM - CASE BY CASE DECISIONS

Trapping pressure Bottle Up
Close HCR Valve and or Chokes
Use Rig Pump to pressure up Annulus through DP or
By pumping through Kill line
Can also restore BHP by pumping through Rig Choke Manifold

Tripping
Add Annular Pressure As Needed - Use PWD
Displace with Heavier Mud - ~0.3 ppg
Remove Annular Pressure as Mud Moves Up Annulus
Strip Holding AP to Negate Swab Effect
Slow Pumps Down as Heavier Mud Nears Surface
Have to trip with BHP > Pore Pressure w/ SF
Clean the Hole Up - Remove Cuttings - Reduces BHP
Other MPD Considerations
