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
