Re: BULL2222 #7290

School me a little Bull and Art.  So they have cemented the casing which looks like some 4 - 5" casing.  Just estimating using whomevers foot is in the picture.  Next they will drill using 2-7/8" DP?


The wells I am more familiar with are 15 - 20k' and they using spud and make the curve, then cement the 7-5/8" casing and then proceed to drill with the 4" drill pipe below the mud motor.  This casing seems small to get drill pipe through.


To let everyone know what I am talking about.  Drill pipe is made up of a box connection, a tool joint, an upset from the tube, the tube, another upset, another tool joint, and a pin connection.  The tube is how the pipe is identified.  So 3-1/2" Drill pipe means that the Tube is 3-1/2" but the Tool Joints are actually 4-1/8" (I.F.)  So that is what you have to worry about getting through the hole.  On 4" casing the ID will actually be, depending on the weight per ft., lets say 3-7/8".


I'm just trying to learn something while waiting for good news.
