[SoonerBorn68]

Since some crybaby decided to close the official oilfield thread I thought I'd address this:


Biggest worry is gettin' the sat set up and keepin' fresh batteries in the remote. You boys got it rough all right.

I 'splained this to another hand who was giving me **** one time. We all made choices to get where we are. Some good, some bad. If you want to have my job make better choices.

Roughnecks have it tough no doubt but they work 7 on 7 off & at the end of tower they go home no matter what the situation. I've been on location 65 days straight without seeing my family. Have you? I've been up 50 hours without any sleep trying to trouble shoot a problem that was actually rig related. I've been on location 159 days this year--that's gone from home 70% of the time. You roughnecks work 50-50. I'm havin' 0 sympathy for you.

They won't fix anything until the pumps won't run. We had this problem right before you got assigned to us. We were down for a couple hours every day while they patched them up.

I have never seen a log like that on the drilling side

[SoonerBorn68]

Was just venting about the official thread.

I know tools are out there that measure while drilling. Thought that might be an example. That type of stuff is right up my alley.

yep, 1TC, martin, SB68 operate those tools(MWD), and coincidentally, they all are tools

I dont know how far the actual tool for the directional info is behind the bit, but gamma can run 25-50' behind.

[1stTimeCaller]

here's an LWD log. You can see that the borehole is going through the various formations perpindicular. If it's a vertical hole the dip of the formations is 0* from the curve on the far right. The left side of the far right curve and the right side are the same spot on the borehole, the highside. The middle is the low side.

yall arent running a flaygan monitor? that is just plain nuts these days to drill with out one

[1stTimeCaller]

our directional sensor is 7-8' behind the gamma sensor, usually. One of our tools has the directional sensor closer to the bit than the gamma.

I'm about to start running one of our LWD tools and it's usually only 10-15 feet behind the bit.

[sanantoniosooner]

congratulations.

You guys just invented the most boring thread ever.

get it?

[Mongo]

congratulations.

way to straighten up a ghey thread

[Petro-Sooner]

These types of logs are sumwhat new to me. Meaning I've heard of them but have not had a chance to deal with them during the mornings.

I take it it saves time and money using these compared to running traditional logs?

[1stTimeCaller]

That's not one of our logs. GIS lwd log and it's the first to come up. I have no idea what a flaygan monitor is, I think you made that word up.

The tool I'm going to run has an azimuthal gamma ray sensor, resistivity and density sensors.

[SoonerBorn68]

I dont know how far the actual tool for the directional info is behind the bit, but gamma can run 25-50' behind.

Our survey point is normally around 48-56 ft. behind the bit & our gamma runs 8-12 ft below that.

[1stTimeCaller]

also if you look at that LWD log you can see that there is no apparent dip as evidenced by the tadpole dots on the density curve. Post processing may indicate a dip but there is no apparent dip on that log.

[Petro-Sooner]

And what is that on the far right? A BHI while MWD??

Cause that would be pretty cool. Totally fresh sample/image.

[sanantoniosooner]

The dip is posting on the internet.

[SoonerBorn68]

Hey martin...I like our graph logs--gamma & ROP. Simple, easy.

:)

[1stTimeCaller]

And what is that on the far right? A BHI while MWD??

I have no idea what you just axed me.

It's not a BHI log but the far right curve is a resistivity curve. Highside is on the far left and far right, low side is in the middle.

[oumartin]

sorry I had to go UNPLUG THE STANDPIPE! We are now cruisin' alone on #2 pump!!!!!

yes, our logs are simple.. I may understand them one day

[Petro-Sooner]

Just to the right of the deep and ring resisitivity. Underneath the RAB imaige. Looks very BHI.

Maybe I'm just not getting what your explaining.

Good times...good times.

[oumartin]

yeah, you know that piece of pipe with our transducer on it! ;)
plugged up all they way back to the big globe valve.

[1stTimeCaller]

it may be a BHI LWD log.

The very far right curve, the colored curve that doesn't look like any of the others. If you cut it out and folded it to where the left side touched the right side and the paper formed a cylinder, that's what the borehole looks like.

If you look at the top you will see that it's laid out like this N E S W N. The Norths being the highside and South being the lowside.

Gotcha. I've seen them but not attached to the actual string. Learn someting new every day.

[Mongo]

that site is pretty cool SB68

that pic of the cement job gone wrong is hilarious

[1stTimeCaller]

maybe when I start running our LWD tool I'll make what martin and 68 make running gamma...

[oumartin]

I Loved the pics of the guy backing the Cat off the trailer. Whoops
Don't think any Head One is gonna cure that headache

[Petro-Sooner]

And 68 thats one of the reasons why I love learning about this business and the earth.

[oumartin]

in the patch its called Planet!

[Petro-Sooner]

well alright. :cool: :D

[1stTimeCaller]

Gotcha. I've seen them but not attached to the actual string. Learn someting new every day.

they have to be sent in to the office for post processing when you are done drilling. The actual dip of the formation is hard to see when drilling, especially if you are in the curve. If you are at 45* INC and the dip appears to be 5* it's really 40 or 50 degrees. It's 5* different from the borehole but the hole is at 45*. If that makes sense.

It takes about 18 hours to do the post processing.

Dry Hole - A hole that did not produce.






Dual Completion - The completion of a well in which two separate formations may be produced at the same time.







Going in the Hole - Lowering drill pipe into the hole.






Hole - Common term for wellbore.









Junk - Debris lost in the hole.

Laying Down the Pipe - Pulling and disassembling the pipe string out of the hole and laying it down onto the pipe racks.












Making Hole > Turning to the Right - Simply put "Drilling"









Open Hole - Uncased part of a well.






Penetration - Rate at which the drill bit proceeds in the deepening of the hole. "Feet per hour."









Rotating Bottom - Making a hole.









Side Tracking - Drilling past an obstruction in the hole.









Slim Hole Drilling-Drilling in which the hole size is smaller than the conventional hole diameter, enabling the driller to run smaller casing.






Slug - Heavy Mud.






Specific Gravity - Ratio of weight of any substance to weight of equal volume of another substance.






Spudding In - Commencement of actual drilling of a well.






Stuck Pipe - Drill pipe, casing, or tubing that can't be worked in or out of the hole as desired.






Swabbing - Operation of using a swab to bring well fluids to the surface when the well does not flow naturally.






Tight Hole - Drilling a well in which the information obtained is restricted and passed only to those authorized to receive it.






Twist - To quit without notice.






Twist Off - To fracture a joint of drill pipe in two causing a recovery or fishing operation.

Sorry, had to.

[Mongo]

very few people, to almost none, drink on locations that I have been on. A company man I worked with was an oxy/herion addict. He'd put stuff over the windows to block out the light, and he was rarely available to talk to cause he was in the "living" area of his trailer with the office part blocked off. He'd have the nod. So doped up, he could barely keep his eyes open and uncontrollably bobbing his head. He was ran off.

Guns, meh. The people that have them are the people that stay out on location. You arent supposed to have them, but everyone does.

[soonerboomer93]

that's a tlp, I think it's in 4000 feet of water


I can't show pictures from the one i'm building yet, but that's very similar

do they tether it to the floor with cables? How do they secure it?

[oumartin]

There is no way in heck I would ever do any offshore work. I freak just lookin' at the pic

[soonerboomer93]

yeah, they use tendons to secure it

why not, good eatin
