Drilling Simulator 3 

Feature:

Drilling Simulator 3 has an interface with the others apps “Driller’s Method Simulator” and “Wait and Weight Method Simulator”. These apps can be used as a Remote Choke to control the Drilling Simulator 3 when they are running on different devices nearby in the same network by wi-fi.

Comparing BPP vs RPD in MPD Simulator

Comparing BPP vs RPD in Drill Pipe Connections

MPD Simulator for iPhone and iPad

Available_on_the_App_Store_Badge_US-UK_135x40_0824_1

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.

Directional and Horizontal Drilling for Mac

Directional Drilling for Mac

New version 7.0

dd_1024

This app is an important tool for drilling operations (Oil & Gas). By buying it you are contributing to the viability of this project. Thanks

Available_on_the_App_Store_Badge_US_UK_135x40_0824

The Directional Drilling Survey provides the control of directional drilling of oil wells with calculations and plotting of well planning and survey data in vertical section, plan  view and 3D (x-y-z) view, calculations between two survey stations, easy tools to 2D and 3D wells and plot multilateral wells.

This is an academic project for petroleum engineering.

Please before you buy it, make sure this app will be useful to you. Visit our website and check the “User Guide“.

This app was developed based in 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, students and teachers of drilling engineering.

There is no intention to replace the professional softwares.

You can contribute with suggestions for improvements, correcting the translation to english, reporting bugs and spreading it to your friends.

Features:

1. Well Planning with Multiple Sections (Minimum Curvature);
2. Ability to work with data files;
3. Directional Survey: Edit, Add, Insert and Remove Survey Data;
4. Calculations Methods:
– Tangential
– Balanced Tangential
– Minimum Curvature (default)
– Radius of Curvature
– Angle Averaging
5. Print Reports;
6. Survey Data Calculations in 5 methods;
7. Formulas of the Methods;
8. Ability to work with length units: foot and meter (metre);
9. Vertical Section View, Plan View and X-Y-Z plotting.
10. Ability to Multilateral wells plotting limited to 6 wells.
11. Easy tool to create 2D Wells (Type I, II and Horizontal).
12. Easy tool to calculate 3D sections on well planning.
13. Sharing data files via email, iCloud Drive, etc.
14. Import Well Planning (MD,Inclination,Azimuth) from CSV text format file;
15. Export Well Planning (MD,Inclination,Azimuth,Quadrant,TVD,HD,VSection,N/S,E/W,DLS,BUR,TRN) to CSV text format file;
16. Import Survey Data from CSV text format file;
17. Export Survey Table to CSV text format file;
18. Sharing data files with iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch via iCloud, iCloud Drive, AirDrop or email;
19. Interpolations in the Well Planning;
20. Interpolations in the Surveys Stations;
21. Ability to get a simulated survey (steps 10m, 30m, 100m or 100ft) from Well Planning interpolations;
22. Ability to resize views and to set fullscreen graphs in high-resolution.

The Drilling Hydraulics provides to driller, tool pushers, engineers, chemists, students and other professionals in the petroleum industry a productivity tool helpful in drilling of oil wells for hydraulics calculations, optimization of the penetration rate and can help on the decision on selection of bit nozzles.

Well Features:

– Well Planning: Onshore or Offshore (riser, casing, liner and open hole). Vertical or Directional Type I.
– Drill string: 2 drill pipes, heavy weight, 2 drill collars, drilling motor and drill bit (w/ until 12 nozzles).
– Volume, capacity, strokes, hydrostatic and drilling hydraulics calculations;

Surface Equipment:

– 04 mud pumps
– Surface connections: standpipe, mud hose, swivel, top drive, kelly, stands
– Choke diameter
– Elevation system weight;

Directional Well:

– This app works with Directional Well Type I and Horizontal, only.
– For other features in directional wells, we recommend the “Directional Drilling Hydraulics” application available in our portfolio in the App Store.

Importing Data Files:

This app imports data files from other apps available in our portfolio on the App Store: “Drilling Simulator 1, 2 and 3”, “Well Control Simulator”, “MPD Simulator”, “Kick Tolerance”, “Leak-Off Test Simulator”, “Kick Game” and “Well Control Methods”

New in version 2.0:

– Added compatibility with Dark Mode (iOS/iPadOS 13 or greater)
– improved the hookload calculation
– bug fixes
