The Volumetric Method

The Volumetric Method

This post shows both steps of the volumetric method (1-wait for migration and bleed and 2-Lubricate and Bleed). 

Apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac (M series) to practice these methods

Volumetric Method Application

This application uses the basic calculations of the Volumetric Method to control oil wells after the occurrence of kick during drilling operations on landing rigs (Onshore).

It is can be applied on the oilfield and also can help in the understanding of the Volumetric Method of well control.

Volumetric Method Simulator 

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 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, just surface parameters are displayed.

Features:

1. Interface based on Hydraulic Choke Panel.
2. Graph in full screen (with background color in black or white) for analysis.
3. Pre-recorded data sheet
4. Well Design with Casing + Open Hole without the Drillstring in the Wellbore.
6. Full features version with pause and digital gauges.
7. Method with Step by Step procedure to turn the exercise easy to practice.

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)

Drilling Simulator 3 for iPhone and iPad

For iPhone and iPad

This is a basic drilling simulator that simulates drilling operations based in panels for drilling, kick detection, shut-in the well, stabilization of pressures and the choke operations during the well control operations using a hydraulic choke panel simulator.

This Well Control Simulator is an important tool for Well Control training in Oil & Gas to practice Driller’s Method, Wait and Weight Method, Volumetric Methods, etc

New version 3.1 on the App Store

Well Control Simulator HD

For iPad only

Available_on_the_App_Store_Badge_US_UK_135x40_0824

Description

Well Control Simulator provides a graphical very useful tool for training of roughnecks, derrickmen, drillers and students in the well control procedures.

– Interactive System: no pre-set methods;

– Ability to apply 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 and surface stack;

– Set well with until 4 sections: riser, casing, liner, open well;

– Set Drillstring with drillpipe1, drillpipe2, heavy weight, drillcollar1, drillcolar2

Kick Model in this simulator:

The model assumes that the kick starts as a single bubble at the bottom of hole and migrates upward as a single bubble from the bottom to the surface. In underbalanced condition (BHP<Form Pressure) during control, the single bubble volume is incremented with the inflow volume from formation to the well.

Notes: 

– In this simulator, the student inputs the parameters of the kick and applies a method to control.

– No drilling. For drilling simulation and kick detection, check the Drilling Simulators apps available in our portfolio”.
