Derrick Loading Derrick Loading Worst Case: Pipe Weight in Derrick 223,242 Lbs

This document summarizes the worst case loading scenarios and equipment requirements for a drilling derrick. It calculates: 1) The maximum static and dynamic loads on the derrick from running the heaviest casing string and applying 100,000 lbs of overpull, totaling over 277,000 lbs. 2) The draworks horsepower requirement of 531 HP to achieve a minimum tripping speed of 50 ft/min under these loading conditions. 3) The mud pump rating of 2774 HHP to handle maximum operating pressures in the 17-1/2" hole section. 4) The minimum 500-ton elevator capacity needed to safely handle the heaviest 9-7/8"

DERRICK LOADING DERRICK LOADING WORST CASE 1 Worst case would be running heaviest casing string (9-7/8" casing=

at section TD and applying maximum overpull I.e. 100 K lbs 2 Assuming all 5" drillpipe has been picked up to drill to TD Block weight + top drive and hoisting equipment = 25000 lbs 108000 Klbs) getting stuck

Pipe in Derrick BHA (DC + HWDP) 6.5" DC 5" HWDP DP 5" DP 8500 ft x 19.5 lb/ft = 165750 lbs 223,242 lbs 108000 lbs 100000 lbs 25000 lbs 233,000 lbs 456,242 lbs (B) (A) + (B) (A)

540 ft x 99 lb/ft = 360 ft x 53.7 lb/ft =

5940 lbs 51552 lbs

Pipe weight in derrick = Casing Stuck 10200 ft x 66.9 lb/ft = Overpull applied Design 100,000 lbs Block and Travelling weight Stuck casing load on derrick Worst Case Derrick Load

DYNAMIC DERRICK LOADING FOR WORST CASE Dynamic derrick load (12 lines run blocks) Hook line load (HL) = Casing wt + OP + block wt Fast Line Load (FL) = HI/(No. lines x SF) Deadline Load (Dl) = Hl/(No. of Line) Dynamic Derrcik load=A + B + C Derrick load Static = ((n) + 2/(n))*Hl 233,000 lbs 24,829.50 lbs 19,417 lbs 277,246 lbs 271,833 lbs (A) (B) C Vl HP

Draworks requirements The operator would like to trip with a minimum speed of 50 ft/min at the highest loading conditions Fast line speed = (n) x speed required ft/min =12 lines x 50 ft/min Vf 600 ft/min

For a 60" drum (1.25 ft radius = r)

Velocity of the fast line Vf = 2 x phi x r x N 600 = 2 x 3.14 x 1.25 x N N= 76.43312102 revs/min

HP = (Fl x s x phi x r x N) / (33,000) HP = 451.45 HP

Assuming efficiencey 85% HP = 531.11 HP

MUD PUMP RATINGS Hydraulic Calculations for two critical hole cleaning sections ie the 17-1/2" hole and 12-1/4" Based on maximum section depth operating pressure of 3200 psi and 1200 GPM in the 17-1/2" section HHP = (P x V)/(1714 x 0.85 x 0.95) HHP = 2774.456

2 x 1300 HP pumps would be required Three pumps would be preffered to provide operational redundancy if one pump requires repair. ELEVATOR Maximum load is the heaviest casing 9-7/8" or equal to w/ SF 1.25 Choose 108000 Lbs 57754.0107 Ton 72192.51337 Ton 500 Ton
