T CORRECT
e TVD x .052
QUESTION THREE
Drillpipe capacity = .01776 bbl/ft Drill collar capacity = .0076 bbl/ft Bit is at 12000 feet MD with 960 ft of collars. What is the string volume?

The string volume is 203.4 bbls and the pump output is .147 bbl/stk. How many strokes are needed to pump kill mud to the bit?
A: 1383 stks B: 1843 stks C: 1438 stks D: 3148 stks E: 3481 stks
T CORRECT
QUESTION FIVE
MD = 12000 feet; Casing Shoe set at 8600 feet; DP/OH Annular Capacity = .0459 bb DC/OH Annular Capacity = .03 bbl/ft x 960 feet; Pump Output = .147 bbl/stk. How many strokes are needed to pump from bit to shoe?
A: 826 stks B: 713 stks C: 1095 stks D: 1144 stks E: 957 stks
First you need to find out the length of open hole = MD - Shoe Depth
You now need to work out the two annular volumes DC/OH & DP/OH and add them together to get the total open hole volume Finally divide this volume by pump output to get strokes
T CORRECT
hole = MD - Shoe Depth
QUESTION SIX
MD = 11475 feet; Casing Shoe set at 7250 feet; DP/OH Annular Capacity = .0459 bb DC/OH Annular Capacity = .0292 bbl/ft x 885 feet; Pump Output = .117 bbl/stk. How many strokes are needed to pump from bit to shoe?
A: 1275 stks B: 1433 stks C: 1531 stks D: 1686 stks E: 1822 stks
First you need to find out the length of open hole = MD - Shoe Depth
You now need to work out the two annular volumes DC/OH & DP/OH and add them together to get the total open hole volume Finally divide this volume by pump output to get strokes
T CORRECT
hole = MD - Shoe Depth

QUESTION EIGHT
The 9 5/8" casing shoe was set at 8250 feet TVD. A LOT was performed with 12.3 ppg a surface pressure of 1750 psi was recorded when leak off occurred. What pressure was exerted on the formation at the shoe at leak off?
A: 7026 psi B: 1750 psi C: 5276 psi D: 2133 psi E: 1709 psi
A LOT was performed with 12.3 ppg mud and n leak off occurred.
At the time of leak off the shoe is feeling the pressure being exerted at surface along with the hydrostatic pressure of the column of mud.
T CORRECT
QUESTION NINE
Mud Weight in use = 12.4 ppg; Surface Leak Off Pressure = 3640 psi with 11 ppg test Shoe TVD = 10000 feet What is MAASP?
A: 920 psi B: 1962 psi C: 2036 psi D: 2178 psi E: 2912 psi
First calculate the MAMW = Surface Leak Off Pressure + Test Mud Shoe TVD x .052
T CORRECT
