Q

Why do we use bottom plugs

A

Separates the job fluid from the well fluid and cleans the pipe.
Allows the spacer to work in the annulus rather than the pipe.

Bleed pressure on casing
PRevent a UTube

38
Q

Centek, able to support the weight of the casing.

41
Q

What type of centralizer do you recommend through a salt section.

A

Centek. Something that can withstand corrosion.

yes

44
Q

What is Weld A?

Chemical weld, locks float equipment to the casing.

45
Q

What are limit clamps used for?

A

Used to secure centralizers in the middle of the casing.

46
Q

Why run a stage tool?

A
  1. The lower formation can not support the hydrostatic of cement.
  2. only want to cement an upper section
  3. Higher temps alter correct placement and thickening time.
47
Q

Advantages Disadvantages of a type H

A

Advantages-
1. Set in a horizontal. There is less time to open tool and circulate.
2. in air drilled holes
Disadvantage-
1. Can accidentally open.
2. Have to be careful with circulating pressures.

48
Q

Advantages Disadvantages of type P

A 
Advantages
1. Do not have to be careful with circulation rates
2. no worry about premature opening.
Disadvantages
1. Can't be used in a horizontal...
49

Difference between a PDC and TriCone bit

A

Poly Dicrystaline - Solid Body bits - Drills laterals faster.
TriCone

50
Q

Max angle a type P can be used.

A

30%

51
Q

Is the “bomb” PDC drillable

A

Yes, Composite but aluminum is a bit more difficult.

52
Q

Is there an alternative to a bomb?

A

Cancelation plug… weight to shift.

53
Q

What is the freefall plug made of?

A

Composite or aluminum.

54
Q

What is the first plug dropped called?

A

Shut off plug… Smallest OD

55
Q

What is the last plug called?

A

Closing plug. Pre loaded, closes the tool.

56
Q

What determines the opening pressure on a type H

A

The number of pins.

57
Q

How many pins do we load out type H stage tool?

A

Depends on the casing strength

58
Q

How many pins does it come loaded with?

A

4

59
Q
