23. CASE STUDY: Sag Resistant Fluid Solution for Narrow Margin, Slim Hole, High Angle WellboreLocation: Gulf of Mexico CHALLENGE Drilling high angle (64°) deep-water well in Gulf of Mexico Narrow drilling margin (surface mud weight=13.7 lb/gal,. fracture gradient=14.8 lb/gal) Operator was experiencing stuck production liners, lost returns, and well control issues SOLUTION Months of development and collaboration led to development of enhanced fluid package that could meet extreme wellbore conditions BaraECD™ high performance fluid system’s unique rheological profile provides low, controlled ECD and low viscosity, while also maintaining adequate suspension properties to resist sag and combat stuck pipe at high angles Fluid was pre-conditioned using Halliburton’s unique high-shear plant mixing system to simulate down hole conditions prior to use RESULTS Drilling continued to operate within narrow drill window with no indication of barite sage or stuck pipe Well was delivered under specified AFE days, as zero HSE incidents and zero NPT were attributed to fluid services
24. CASE STUDY: Innovative Use of N-SOLATE® Packer Fluid in Gulf of Mexico Location: Gulf of Mexico CHALLENGE Lost circulation High ECD Because of extremely cold sea floor temperatures, the synthetic-based fluid was becoming excessively thick when cooling off in the riser, requiring greater pump pressure to move SOLUTION N-SOLATE®600 packer fluid was used in the riser wall annulus to keep the heat from the synthetic-based mud (SBM) in the main annulus from being lost to cold sea floor temperatures RESULTS Once the N-SOLATE 600 packer fluid was in place, further lost circulation was not experienced Equivalent circulating density (ECD) was drastically reduced Higher circulation rate and faster drilling rates achieved Drilling fluid returned to surface 20 degrees warmer compared to wells without the insulating effects of N-SOLATE fluid Less stress on the wellbore throughout the entire operation Major reduction in drilling time and reduction of fluid costs
25. CASE STUDY: Applied Fluids Optimization (AFO) Service Helps to Avoid Costly NPT in Deviated GOM Deepwater Well Location: Gulf of Mexico CHALLENGE Maintain ECD below Leak-Off Test value and avoid Non-Productive Time Wellbore contained a 56-degree hole angle, typically more difficult to clean, and had reached a depth of 12,969 ftSurface fluid density at the time of the event was 13.65 lb/gal. Bottom-hole circulating temperature was 127°F at a pressure of 8,400 psi. SOLUTION Applied Fluids Optimization (AFO) services allowed AFO specialists to use real time DFG RT™ software to interpret the situation in real time, enabling the operators to respond quickly and appropriately. AFO specialists observed that an increase in the ROP from +/-100 ft/hr to +/-140 ft/hr with a steady flow rate of 890 gal/min could lead to a cuttings load increase from 3.08% to 8.23% and a corresponding ECD increase of almost 0.3 lb/gal. The LOT at the last casing show was 13.37 lb/gal. Since DFG-RT simulations had predicted significant increases to the cuttings load and ECD, the AFO specialist declared a level yellow intervention* and sent notifications as per the job communication plan. The rig operators reduced the ROP to +/-100 ft/hr, and the threat was avoided. RESULTS Reduction in ROP reduced the cuttings load in the wellbore, helping to avoid a potential pack-off, stuck pipe, and/or lost returns. Events could have resulted in problems ranging from a few hours of lost drilling time to the loss of the well interval and having to sidetrack the well.
