UNCONFINED COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH The production of sand from hydrocarbon reservoirs can result in various operational and safety issues. In addition to lost production from sand fill and or plugging, solids particles can cause significant erosion to both downhole tubulars and surface facilities. Predicting the onset of sand production has always been a bit of a… Continue reading Determination of Rock Properties from Logs I

A simplified workflow for completion tubing metallurgy selection
We’re all familiar with the sort of H2S and CO2 partial pressure material selection graph shown in Figure 1. Here, the appropriate metallurgy for a well based on the partial pressure of the CO2 and H2S as well as operational temperature is divided into zones. Increasing CO2 pushes us up the Y-axis moving from standard… Continue reading A simplified workflow for completion tubing metallurgy selection
