Kick Tolerance as Max Kick Volume

New version with Dark Mode (iOS 13 or greater)

There are several concepts about kick tolerance, but this article only deals with the concept of kick tolerance as the maximum kick volume.

The our App “Kick Tolerance” for iPhone and iPad provides to drilling engineers, chemists, technicians, students and others professionals in the Oil & Gas industry a productivity tool helpful in drilling operation (well control) and planning phase of oil wells.

Drilling Simulator 3 Lite for iPhone and iPad

Drilling Simulator 3 Lite

designed for both iPhone and iPad

NEW VERSION 1.1

Drilling Simulator 3 (full version)

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”

Drilling Simulator 3 LITE (This App)

all of drilling simulator 3 for 20 minutes of simulation:

This is a limited version of the “Drilling Simulator 3” free for 20 minutes. This time is sufficient in this simulator for drilling until kick detection, shut-in the well, stabilization of pressures and to start the well circulation using a hydraulic choke panel to control.

Attention: Some features are disabled by default.

Volumetric Method Simulator

Well Control

New App for iPhone and iPad

We develop this new app for iPhone and iPad by suggestions of users and well control schools !

This is a basic well control simulator for training in Oil & Gas that simulates the control applying the Volumetric Method (and Lubricate and Bleed Method) after the kick detection during stripping out the drillstring on the drilling operations in the oil well.

This is a new project also based on app “Kick Game 2” available in our portfolio like the Driller’s Method Simulator and Wait and Weight Method Simulator. Like these apps only surface parameters are displayed.

Kick Tolerance as Maximum Kick Volume

New app for Complex Wells – 3D Directional

for iPhone and iPad

A useful tool for Oil & Gas students and professionals to calculate the Kick Tolerance on vertical and 3D directional wells. It provides a 3D well planning creation tool.

The Kick Tolerance provides to drilling engineers, chemists, students and other professionals in the petroleum industry a productivity helpful tool in the drilling operations (well control) and well planning step of oil wells.

This application deals the concept:

– Kick Tolerance as Maximum Kick Volume.

The Kick Tolerance calculations as maximum kick volume can be applied on vertical and 3D directional wells.

It provides a 3D well planning creation tool like our app “Directional Drilling”.

Compatibility with high resolutions screens of iPad Pro 12.9 inches and iPhone XS Max.

Please, you can contribute for improvements. Report bugs and suggestions to contact@wellcontrol.com.br

Riser Safety Margin

New app – It’s FREE !

for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

This app is a tool for application on deepwater drilling operations (Oil & Gas).

The slight increase in mud weight needed to offset the loss in hydrostatic pressure at bottom of the borehole when the riser is disconnected from the bop (emergency disconnection) and the hydrostatic pressure of the mud to the mud line into the drilling riser is replaced by the hydrostatic of the column of sea water.

Emergency disconnection can occur in blackout condition, failure of the dynamic positioning system, etc on drillship or semi-submersible platform.

It’s for iOS only

(iPhone, iPad and iPod touch)

Available on the App Store !
