SurgeMOD
- Surge and swab hydraulics
SurgeMOD
accurately predicts surge and swab pressures for running casing or
making a trip in deep-water wells or wells with narrow annular
clearance. It takes into account of efforts of total flow area of
auto-fill float equipment and/or the presence of circulation sub. It
also calculates the optimum speed for whole tripping operation.
Effects
of different pipe end conditions:
Closed
Open
Open with auto fill float
equipment or bit
with circulation sub
Optimal
trip speeds at different trip depths
Multiple weak zones
Surge/swab pressures for given
running speed
Sensitivity study on tripping speed
Handles very tight annular
tolerance
Handles pressure drop across float
shoe
Bingham plastic or power law fluids
Allowable flow rate after the
casing is set
