Dogleg Severity Limit

The document provides guidelines for determining the maximum permissible dogleg severity for drilling based on Lubinski's equations, taking into account drill pipe specifications, mud weight, true vertical depths, section lengths and weights below the dogleg. It calculates the maximum permissible dogleg severity according to fatigue limits and a 2000 lb tool joint force to be 5.63 deg/100' and 4.08 deg/100' respectively for the given pipe parameters.

Maximum permissible dogleg severity based upon Lubinski's equations (no corrosion).

In corrosive environments, reduce dogleg severity to a fraction (0.6 for very severe conditions) of the indicated value. INPUT DATA Drill pipe OD = 5.00 inches Drill pipe ID = 4.276 inches Yield strength (E=75,000 S=135,000) = 75000 psi Mud weight = 9.2 ppg True vertical depth of dogleg = 1000 feet Total true vertical depth at TD = 5170 feet SECTION 1 TVD length of 5" pipe below dogleg = 3615 feet Weight per foot with tool joints = 20.89 lbs/ft SECTION 2 TVD length of 5" HWDP below dogleg = 495 feet Weight per foot with tool joints = 49.3 lbs/ft SECTION 3 TVD length of 8" collars below dogleg = 60 feet Weight per foot = 149.76 lbs/ft

CALCULATED DATA Maximum permissible dogleg severity (fatique) = 5.63 Maximum DLS for 2000 lb tool joint force = 4.08 Actual tool joint normal force at maximum DLS = 2762 Tension at dogleg = 93660 Tensile stress = 17757 Bending stress = 16518 Moment of Inertia = 14.2692 Constant KL = 2.6625 Tanh KL = 0.9903 Bouyancy factor = 0.86
