FORMULAS
1. Pressure Gradient (psi/ft) = Mud Weight (ppg) x 0.052

2. Hydrostatic Pressure (psi) = Mud Weight (ppg) x 0.052 x Depth (ft, TVD)

3. Capacity (bbls/ft) = Inside Diameter2 (in.) ÷ 1029.4

4. Annular Capacity(bbls/ft) = (Inside Diameter of Casing2 (in.) or Hole Diameter2 (in.) - Outside Diameter of Pipe2 (in.)) ÷ 1029.4

5. Pipe Displacement (bbls/ft) = (Outside Diameter of pipe2 (in.) - Inside Diameter of pipe2 (in.)) ÷ 1029.4

Surface LOT Pressure (psi)

6. Maximum Allowable Mud Density (ppg) = + LOT Mud Density (ppg)
Shoe Depth (ft, TVD) x 0.052

7. MAASP (psi) = [Maximum Allowable Mud Density (ppg) - Present Mud Density (ppg)] x 0.052 x Shoe TVD (ft)

Drilling Mud Density (ppg) x 0.052 x Metal Displacement (bbl/ft)

8. Pressure Drop per Foot Tripping Dry Pipe (psi/ft) =
Casing Capacity (bbl/ft) - Metal Displacement (bbl/ft)
Drilling Mud Density (ppg) x 0.052 x Closed End Displacement (bbl/ft)
9. Pressure Drop per Foot Tripping Wet Pipe (psi/ft) =
Casing Capacity (bbl/ft) - Closed End Displacement (bbl/ft)

10. Formation Pressure (psi) = Hydrostatic Pressure Mud in Hole (psi) + SIDPP (psi)

11. EMW (ppg) @ Shoe = (SICP (psi) ÷ 0.052 ÷ Shoe Depth (ft, TVD) ) + Present Mud Weight (ppg)

Bbls of Mud in System x 14.9 x (KMW - OMW)

12. Sacks (100 lb) of Barite Needed to Weight-Up Mud =
(35.4 - KMW)
NOTE: This formula assumes that the average density of Barite is 35.4 ppg and the average number of sacks (100lb) per barrel is 14.9.

13. Volume Increase from Adding Barite (bbls) = Number of Sacks (100 lb) added ÷ 14.9

New Pump Rate (SPM)
16. Estimated New Pump Pressure at New Pump Rate (psi) = Old Pump Pressure (psi) x [ Old Pump Rate (SPM) ]
New Mud Density (ppg)
17. Estimated New Pump Pressure with New Mud Density (psi) = Old Pump Pressure (psi) x
Old Mud Density (ppg)
