Leak-Off Test Analyzer for iPhone submitted for App Store

Leak-Off Test Analyzer for iPhone

LOT_170x170B.png

Awaiting for approval by Apple

This app provides for Technicians, Drillers, Toolpushers, Drilling Engineers, Students and others professionals of the oil industry a very helpfull tool to analysis and use during the performing of the leak-off test in wellsite.

About the Leak-off Test on drilling operations:

A test to determine the strength or fracture pressure of the open formation, usually conducted immediately after drilling below a new casing shoe.

Initially, pumping fluid into the borehole results in volumetric compression of the drilling mud column and elastic expansion of the casing string plus rock around the borehole. As the pressure in the borehole increases, the leak-off pressure (LOP) is reached when the relationship between pressure increase and volume of fluid pumped deviates from linear. This occurs when fluid begins to diffuse into the formation at a more rapid rate as the rock begins to dilate. Generally, a LOT is a test that finishes immediately after LOP is reached.

Features: 

1. Intuitive graphical interface;

2. Ability to work with multiple files;

3. Set ranges for graph;

4. Graph Options:

– Choke Pressure and Volume Pumped versus Pumping Time;

–  Choke Pressure and Pumping Time versus Volume Pumped;

5. Data edition (add, edit/save, insert, remove);

6. Ability to send screenshots by email;

7. Ability to print via AirPrint

8. Tap with finger and moving it in the graph area to obtain Choke Pressure,

Equivalent Density, Equivalent Gradient, Volume Pumped and Pumping Time.

Drilling Simulator for iPhone – Introductory Level now available on the iTunes App Store

Drilling Simulator for iPhone – Introductory Level

iDrillSim_10_01.PNG

iTunes App Store

Drilling Simulator – Introductory level provides a graphical very useful tool for training of roughnecks, derrickmen, drillers and students in basic drilling concepts and in the kick detection based on the behavior of the parameters during the drilling an oil well and of the behavior of kick in the well after the shut-in the well.

– Drilling (bit rotation, geolograph, neutral point);

– Hydraulics;

– Kick Detection;

– Hard Shut-in;

– Behavior of kick;

Note: This app NOT allows to control the well after the kick detection and shut-in.   The simulation ends after the simulations of underground blowout and blowout to surface.
