Example performed in App “Drilling Simulator 3” for iPhone and iPad

Directional Well :
MD/TVD: 12000/8015 ft,
Liner Shoe Depth: 6500/6261 ft,
Kill Mud Volume to prepare: 812 bbl

(Note: In this example was considered that all KMW volume was ready to start the Wait and Weight Method)

Basic Drilling Hydraulics

App for iPhone and iPad
New version 1.1

Hydraulics_1024
Available_on_the_App_Store_Badge_US_UK_135x40_0824

Basic Drilling Hydraulics

Formulas and Calculations:

– Capacities and Volumes

– Mud Properties and Gradient

– Temperature Gradient

– Pressure Gradient

– Hydrostatic Pressure

– Mud Pump Output

– Hydraulics on Drill Bit nozzles

– Friction Losses (on borehole section)

– ECD – Equivalent Circulating Density

– Pressure with well closed (Kick/LOT/FIT)

Formulas:

– The factors/constants are calculated based on different units of measures.

Unit system with unit selected per parameter and setting of decimals. The factors in formulas are calculated based em units selected. This is very useful in Oil & Gas.

Drilling Simulator 3 – New Version 2.0 – iPhone version

Drilling Simulator 3

 designed for both iPhone and iPad

New Version 2.0 now available on the App Store !!!

ds3_20_01

Drilling Simulator 1:

– Drilling on vertical well, kick detection, shut-in, stabilisation of pressures (sidpp, sicp, kick volume), save to iCloud to import from other app “Well Control Simulator”.

Drilling Simulator 2:

all of drilling simulator 1 PLUS Direcional and horizontal wells, well control using 01 choke and 01 single kick bubble on borehole and graphical analysis.

Drilling Simulator 3 (This App)

all of drilling simulator 2 PLUS:

1 – until 03 single kick bubbles on the borehole simultaneously

2 – standpipe manifold and choke manifold with 02 chokes and straight through

3 – Complications: failures schedule with Random option:

– Mud Pumps 1 and 2 “power end failure” or “fluid end failure”,

– Chokes 1 and 2 “plugged” or “washed”,

– One Drill Bit Nozzle “plugged” or “washed”

New in the next update (version 2.0 – Coming soon):

– Improved circulation options with subsea valves upper kill & lower kill & upper choke

– On subsea wells, now it is possible to circulate kill mud in the kill line & riser after filling choke line with kill mud weight, keeping bop closed.

– On surface wells, added upper kill line, upper choke and a check valve in kill line

– improved visual of the gauges.

MPD Simulator for iPhone and iPad 

MPD Simulator for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad 

MPD Simulator

Available_on_the_App_Store_Badge_US_UK_135x40_0824

This app is designed for both iPhone and iPad.

This application provides practical simulations of the Dynamic Well Control on the Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) operations in the oil field services.

With Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD), when kicks occur, they are typically smaller, contained more quickly, and, in some cases, they may be circulated out through MPD equipment without drilling or circulation interruption.

This simulator is the new project based on the Drilling Simulator 2 available on our portfolio on the App Store, but specifically for dynamic well control on onshore and offshore operations (deepwater).

MPD System on this simulator:

1. RCD – Rotating Control Device
2. Annular Preventer (or Drill String Isolation Tool – DSIT)
3. Automated Choke for CBHP (Constant Bottom Hole Pressure), Constant Drill Pipe Pressure and Constant Choke Pressure.
4. RPD – Rig Pump Diverter
5. BPP – BackPressure Pump

Additional features:
1. Driller Interface based on Pressure Gauge, Weight Indicator, Rotary Torque gauge and Geolograph.
2. Choke Interface based on Hydraulic Choke Digital Panel.
3. Graph in full screen (with background color in black or white) for analysis.
4. Special screen layout optimised for iPhones 6 / Plus and iPad Pro
5. Auto/Manual Control on MPD Choke ONLY.
Note: For well control based on conventional rig choke panel, please buy the “Drilling Simulator 2”.

Other features also available:

A graphical very useful tool for training of roughnecks, derrickmen, drillers, toolpusher, drilling engineers and students in the well control procedures.

– Ability to drilling, kick detection, shut-in, stabilisation of pressures;
– Interactive System: no pre-set methods;
– Ability to apply control methods: Driller’s method, wait and weight, dynamic volumetric and static volumetric (lubricate and bleed);
– Hydraulics and Hydrostatics;
– Behavior of the kick;
– Applied with subsea stack or surface stack;
– Set well with until 4 sections: riser, casing, liner, open hole ;
– Set Drillstring with drillpipe1, drillpipe2, heavy weight, drillcollar1, drillcollar2
