Driller's depth is always recorded, and it constitutes the primary depth system, unless it is later superseded by a more accurate measurement such as the depth from an open- or cased-hole wireline log. Driller's depth should always have 1) a unit of measurement e.g. meter or feet, 2) a datum reference e.g. rig floor.
The Pitch Circle Diameter (PCD) is the diameter of that circle that passes through the center of all the bolt holes or wheel bolts or wheel rim holes or studs. The best example is Flanges, there are multiple holes in the Flanges, the circle through the center of these holes is known as the pitch circle, and the diameter of this circle is known ...
The "total depth" for the well, core depths and all analysis of core / mud and other materials from the drilling hole are measured in "drillers depth". Well depth values from the wireline loggers operation are referred to as "logger's depth". The loggers depth are typically considered more reliable than the drillers depth.
Example mechanical drawing. Here is an example of an engineering drawing (an isometric view of the same object is shown above). The different line types are colored for clarity. Black = object line and hatching; Red = hidden line; Blue = center line of piece or opening; Magenta = phantom line or cutting plane line
Gun drills are an archetypal example. Often single-lip deep hole drills are used on machining centres for the production of holes with smaller drilling depths (up to approx. 40 × D). Ejector drilling is mainly used on conventional machine tools. Since deep hole drilling has a high productivity, only comparatively powerful machines are used.
Hole types in engineering: blind (left), through (middle), interrupted (right). In engineering, machining, and tooling, a hole may be a blind hole or a through hole (also called a thru-hole or clearance hole). A blind hole is a hole that is reamed, drilled, or milled to a specified depth without breaking through to the other side of the ...
In cased hole completions (the majority of wells), once the completion string is in place, the final stage is to make a connection between the wellbore and the formation. This is done by running perforation guns to blast holes in the casing or liner to make a connection. Modern perforations are made using shaped explosive charges, similar to ...
Well X has a measured depth of 9,800 ft and a true vertical depth of 9,800 ft while well Y has measured depth of 10,380 ft while its true vertical depth is 9,800 ft. To calculate the hydrostatic pressure of the bottom hole, the true vertical depth is used because gravity acts (pulls) vertically down the hole.
