5. System Specifications

Hole Size
Usually decreases with hole depth
Why?
• Casing or liner is run to isolate shallower
hole sections.
• A smaller diameter drill bit is then required
to pass through the casing.
• Smaller diameter drill collars are used.

Why?
March 7, 2001

10. System Specifications

Mud Flow Rate
Usually decreases with hole depth
Why?
• As hole diameter decreases less flow is
required to clean the hole.
• As hole depth increases circulating
pressure also increases
• Flow is reduced to keep the circulating
pressure within limits.

Mud Density
Changes with hole conditions
Why?
• Mud density is adjusted to balance the
formation pressure.
• It usually increases with depth, but may
decrease again after casing is set.

Temperature
Increases with true vertical depth
Why?
• Due to conductance of heat from earth’s
core to surface.
• Temperature increases between 0.5°-5°C per
100 m, average 2.5°C per 100 m
• Temperature increases between 0.25°-2.5°F
