  • Internal Fluid Weight – This is the weight of fluid inside the pipe and is used for floating casing. If no value is entered the program assumes the pipe is filled with mud as per the fluid properties. If zero is entered, the program assumes there is NO fluid. If the fluid inside is a different weight from the mud weight in the fluid properties, enter the weight in ppg

Note if torque reduction subs are only run over a set interval the drill pipe must be entered in separate sections and the section with the friction reduction subs specified

  • Grade – Material grade selected from drop-down menu. All grades present in the drop-down menu are entries in the Material Grades Catalogue

  • Drill Pipe Range – Select from Range 2 or 3. Indicative or approximate single length

  • Fish Neck OD – Fish neck OD when entered is included in the printed BHA report

E15 - Liner

  • Connection Top – Plays no part in any calculation

  • Connection Bottom – Plays no part in any calculation

  • Tensile Yield – The tensile yield of the component. This value is displayed on the charts if selected

  • Torsional Yield – The torsional yield of the component. This value can be displayed on the charts if selected

  • Burst Pressure – The Burst pressure of the pipe in psi.

  • Collapse Pressure – The collapse pressure of the pipe in psi.

  • Material Strength – Strength of material in units of pressure. Automatically populated from the Material Grades Catalogue entry when the Grade is selected

  • Cent OD – the OD of the centralisers, if bow spring type simply enter the ID of the hole

  • Cent Blade Width – width of 1 blade of the centraliser in inches

  • Cent Blade Length – the length of a single centraliser in inches

  • Cent Blade Count – number of blades on centraliser

  • Internal Fluid Wt – This is the weight of fluid inside the liner, and is used for floating casing. If no value is entered the program assumes the pipe is filled with mud as per the fluid properties. If zero is entered, the program assumes there is NO fluid. If the fluid inside is a different weight from the mud weight in the fluid properties, enter the weight in ppg.

  • Float TFA – enter the TFA of the float or shoe, this is used for surge and swab calculations. Clicking on the cell brings up the jets dialog

  • Cent Spacing – number of centralisers over the interval – note if centralisers are only run across a certain interval then the liner should be entered as separate sections in the string. This is used for hydraulics and torque and drag calculations

  • Bow Spring Restore Force - Force exerted by a centralizer against the casing to keep it away from the wellbore wall

  • Grade – Material grade selected from drop-down menu. All grades present in the drop-down menu are entries in the Material Grades Catalogue
