Review: This book aims to provide all the formulae and calculations that oilfield workers are likely to need in drilling operations. Nearly all the mathematics needed on a drilling rig is included, including formulae for pressure gradient, specific gravity, pump output, annular velocity, buoyancy factor, volume and stroke, slug weight, drill string design, cementing, depth of washout, bulk density of cuttings, and stuck pipe. This updated version includes volumetric procedure, the lubricate and bleed procedure (both volume and pressure method), and stripping procedures (both the strip and bleed procedure and the combined stripping and volumetric pressure).
