Question 1

What Halliburton Tool is Used for Successful Whipstock Plugs

Answer 1

BHKA Cement hole kickoff assembly

Question 2

What must happen to have a balanced plug

Answer 2

Fluid inside and outside must be the same density and height

Question 3

What are different types of plug methods

Answer 3

Balance, Dumb bailer, 2 plug, modified 2 plug,

Question 4

What causes failure for plugs with inverted wells

Answer 4

Spiraling and roping

Question 5

What causes plug failure

Answer 5

1. Impatience
2. Poor mud removal
3. insufficient volume

Question 6

What are some concerns with swabbing a well

Answer 6

Collapse of Casing

Question 7

Definition of Internal Yield Pressure

Answer 7

Amout of pressure before casing will burst

Question 8

What is Squeeze Cementing

Answer 8

Process of applying hydraulic pressure to force or squeee cement into perforations and force filtrate water to create a solid mass known as a rope

Question 9

What is A High Pressure Squeeze

Answer 9

Surface pressure+displacement fluid hydrostatic pressure+ cement slurry hydrostatic pressure= total bottom hole pressure greater than formation fracture pressure

Question 10

What is A Low Pressure Squeeze

Answer 10

Surface pressure+displacement fluid hydrostatic pressure+ cement slurry pressure= total bottom hole pressure less than formation pressure

Question 11

What is A Hesitation Squeeze

Answer 11

Concerned with gel strength development, false indication of squeeze pressure, difficulty reversing out, high pump pressure coule cause formation breakdown

Question 12

Why is Pressure Applied on Annulus During Squeezes

Answer 12

To protect the casing from collapsing and to keep the packer set and in place

Question 13

What Two Tool Selections Are There for Squeezes

Answer 13

Drillable, Retrievable

Question 14

What are Two Types of Squeeze Method Placements and Definition

Answer 14

Packer- Isolates casing above therefore higher squeeze pressure can be applied. Pressure needs to be applied in order to prevent casing collapse

Question 15

Causes for Job Failure

Answer 15

Pumping/mixing unit failure, bulk system failure, incorrect water pressure, human error

Question 16

Causes for Cement Slurry Failure

Answer 16

Contaminated material, incorrect volume of mixing water, incorrect amount of chemicals

Question 17

Causes of Cement Channeling Failure

Answer 17

Failure to centralize pipe, move pipe during the cementing job, circulate mud before cementing job

Question 18

Definition of Densitometer

Answer 18

Devise installed on pumping truck manifold to measure the density of fluids

Question 19

What Does The Recirculating Densitometer Do

Answer 19

Regulates the ADC

Question 20

Purpose of A Vacuum Breaker

Answer 20

The relieve negative pressure

Question 21

What are some features of Super Seal II High-Port Up-Jet Float Shoe

Answer 21

Improves mud displacement, provides excellent filter cake removal, up jets 60% of fluids volume

Question 22

Reasons for Multi-Stage Cementing Equipment

Answer 22

Hydrostatic pressure too great for formation/casing, separate different types/blends of cement, or there is a limited pump time

Question 23

What is a Poppet Valve

Answer 23

Most popular type of valve in the Halliburton Float Equipment, 2 3/4 and 4 1/4 sizes are available for the SSII

Question 24

What is HMS Procedure for Cementing

Answer 24

Obtain casing/drill pipe burst/collapse pressures and safety factors to calculate max allowable pressure, not exceeding 80% of rated value of new pipe, obtain body yield strength of casing/drill pipe, do not exceed 56% of rated value of new pipe.
