  2. Drill stem test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_stem_test

    A drill stem test (DST) is a procedure for isolating and testing the pressure, permeability and productive capacity of a geological formation during the drilling of a well. The test is an important measurement of pressure behaviour at the drill stem and is a valuable way of obtaining information on the formation fluid and establishing whether a ...

  3. Big Stan (drill rig) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Stan_(drill_rig)

    Big Stan employs a screw conveyor capable of exerting 534,000 pound-feet (724,000 N⋅m) of torque and 75,000 pounds (34,000 kg) of downward force to a maximum depth of 260 feet (79 m). Its drill bit is capable of moving 5 cubic yards (3.8 m 3 ) of soil per rotation and its drill bucket is able to move up to 8 cubic yards (6.1 m 3 ) of soil per ...

    [11] (bits per second) at a depth of 35,000 ft – 40,000 ft (10668 m – 12192 m). Surface to down hole communication is typically done via changes to drilling parameters, i.e., change of the rotation speed of the drill string or change of the mud flow rate.

  5. Drill pipe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_pipe

    Eventually the drill pipe will be graded as scrap and marked with a red band. Drill pipe is a portion of the overall drill string. The drill string consists of both drill pipe and the bottom hole assembly (BHA), which is the tubular portion closest to the bit. The BHA will be made of thicker walled heavy weight drill pipe (HWDP) and drill ...

    The normal hydrostatic pressure gradient for freshwater is 0.433 pounds per square inch per foot (psi/ft), or 9.792 kilopascals per meter (kPa/m), and 0.465 psi/ft for water with dissolved solids like in Gulf Coast waters, or 10.516 kPa/m.

  8. Core sample - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_sample

    Rock core samples, the product of a diamond rig.A pied butcherbird perches nearby.. A core sample is a cylindrical section of (usually) a naturally-occurring substance. Most core samples are obtained by drilling with special drills into the substance, such as sediment or rock, with a hollow steel tube, called a core drill.

  9. Drilling fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling_fluid

    Drilling fluids also support portion of drill-string or casing through buoyancy. Suspend in drilling fluid, buoyed by force equal to weight (or density) of mud, so reducing hook load at derrick. Weight that derrick can support limited by mechanical capacity, increase depth so weight of drill-string and casing increase.
