Directional Well Planning

This application provides an easy and useful tool for students and directional engineers to build, edit, calculate interpolations and plot 2D and 3D well planning using the Minimum Curvature Calculation Method.

It is necessary to import survey stations to plot. This application does not normally edit survey stations. But it is still possible to edit only via CSV text.

The survey stations can be edited using our apps “Directional Well Survey” or “Directional Drilling” available in our portfolio.

The data files (*.ddf) including well planning and survey stations are compatible and can be shared via iCloud.

Directional Well Survey

This application provides an easy and useful tool for students and directional engineers to edit, calculate interpolations and plot survey stations of the horizontal and directional wells using the five calculation methods (tangential, balanced tangential, minimum curvature, radius of curvature, angle averaging).

This application does not normally edit well planning. But it is still possible to edit only via CSV text.

Multilateral Directional Wells

This application provides an easy and useful tool for students and directional engineers to plot until six 2D and 3D lateral wells using the Minimum Curvature Calculation Method.
This application does not normally edit well planning or survey stations. But it is still possible to edit only via CSV text.

The well planning can be built and edited using our app “Directional Well Planning” or “Directional Drilling”.

The survey stations can be edited using our app “Directional Well Survey” or “Directional Drilling”.

App Store

These apps are available in our portfolio.

Please visit them by clicking on their respective links to see screenshots.

Datafiles compatibility

The data files (*.ddf) including well planning and survey stations are compatible and can be shared via iCloud.

Importing data from Directional Wells

The well planning can be built and edited using our apps “Directional Well Planning” or “Directional Drilling” available in our portfolio.

The data files (*.ddf) including well planning and survey stations are compatible and can be shared via iCloud.

The well planning and survey stations can also be imported from CSV text files, for example:

“MD”,”INC”,”AZI”,”TVD”,”N/S”,”E/W”
“1000.0”,”0.0″,”0.0″,”1000.0″,”0.0″,”0.0″
“1100.0”,”3.0″,”10.0″
“1200.0”,”6.0″,”15.0″
…

The values can be “quoted” or unquoted and separated by:
– Comma: 1.00,2.00,3.00
– Semicolon: 1.00;2.00;3.00 or 1,00;2,00;3,00
– Tab: 1.00 2.00 3.00 (TSV file)
– Space: 1.00 2.00 3.00Attention Please

Please, before purchasing, make sure that this application will be useful for you.

This application was developed based on existing spreadsheets. There is no comparison with any other software.

Our goal was to create a very low cost application with the help of experts to share with drilling engineers, technicians, drillers, drilling engineering students and teachers.

It is not intended to replace professional software.

You can contribute with suggestions for improvements, correcting the English translation, reporting bugs and sharing it with your friends.

Comparing BPP vs RPD in MPD Simulator

Comparing BPP vs RPD in Drill Pipe Connections

MPD Simulator for iPhone and iPad

BPP is a auxiliary component of the MPD System to provide flow to maintain Back Pressure during low-flow events or pumps-off events, such as in drill pipe connections.

When the rig mud pump is being ramped down slowly for connection purposes, the back pressure pump is turned on and ramped up when the rig mud pump drops below a set point. Flow by choke varies causing greater pressure variations, requiring more attention from the operators.

RPD is a necessary component of the MPD System to maintain Back Pressure during drill pipe connections using the flow provided by the mud pumps of the rig. The flow by choke does not vary. Pressure variations are smaller.
