2.- PROJECT EVALUATION
RISK ASSESSMENT FOR OIL AND GAS PROJECT
Risk assessment can be used in many ways. In oil and gas construction activity focus about the safety risk assessment , which in general is qualitative. For the project management it can be used in cost estimation to define the contingency. There are many softwares that are based on Monte-Carlo simulation, the best one is the Crystal-ball software.
Exploration Risk :
– Existence of Hydrocarbons
– Magnitude of Discovery
– Type of Hydrocarbon
Development Risk :
– Technical Risk
– Reservoir Development
The ALARP principle - as low as reasonably practicable
The ALARP principle is sometimes used in the oil and gas industry . The use of the ALARP principle may be interpreted as, satisfying a requirement to keep the risk level “as low as possible” provided that the ALARP evaluations are extensively documented. In the ALARP region (between “lower tolerable limit” and “upper tolerable limit”), the risk is tolerable, only if risk reduction is impracticable or if its cost is grossly disproportionate to the improvement gained. The common way to determine what is practicable is to use cost–benefit evaluations as a basis for the decision on whether certain risk reducing measures should be implemented. A risk may not be justified in any ordinary circumstance, if it is higher than the “upper tolerable limit.” The “upper tolerable limit” is usually defined, whereas the “lower tolerable limit” may sometimes be left undefined. This will not prohibit effective use of the approach, as it implies that ALARP evaluations of risk reducing measures will always be required. The ALARP principle used for risk acceptance is applicable to risks regarding personnel, the environment, and assets.
Layers of Protection Analysis (LOPA)
Percentil P10, P50, Pmean, P90 :
One technique that the industry uses to understand and quantify distributions of data is percentiles (or cumulative probabilities). This organizes the distribution into increments between 0 and 100. For example, the 10th percentile or P10 number say 10 percent of my wells will have a value “less than or equal to” my P10 value. The location of percentiles on a typical lognormal distribution would look something like:
Comparing to the P10, which could potentially give estimates that are over-optimistic, and the P90, a conservative estimate which could potentially leave too much oil, both providing confusing future trends. It is a common misunderstanding that the P50 is a synonym of P mean. This will be true is the probability distribution function for the observations were symmetrical. In this case, the mode, P mean and P50 would all be the same.

PETROLEUM RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (PRMS)
In 2000, the American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG), SPE, and the World Petroleum Council (WPC) jointly developed a classification system for all petroleum resources. This was followed by complementary application evaluation guidelines (2001), standards for estimation and Audit of Reserves information (2001, 2007 revised version) and a glossary of terms used in the definitions of resources (2005).

4.- DRILLING RIGS
DRILLING BARGES : A drilling barge consists of a barge with a complete drilling rig and ancillary equipment constructed on it. Drilling barges are suitable for calm shallow waters (mostly inland applications) and are not able to withstand the water movement experienced in deeper, open water situations. When a drilling barge is moved from one location to another, the barge floats on the water and is pulled by tugs. When a drilling barge is stationed on the drill site, the barge can be anchored in the floating mode or in some way supported on the bottom. The bottom-support barges may be submerged to rest on the bottom or they may be raised on posts or jacked-up on legs above the water. The most common drilling barges are inland water barge drilling rigs that are used to drill wells in lakes, rivers, canals, swamps, marshes, shallow inland bays, and areas where the water covering the drill site in not too deep.
CAT 3512B : Average rating: 1000 kw
SUBMERSIBLES RIGS: Submersible drilling rigs are similar to barge rigs but suitable for open ocean waters of relative shallow depth. The drilling structure is supported by large submerged pontoons that are flooded and rest on the seafloor when drilling. After the well is completed, the water is
pumped out of the tanks to restore buoyancy and the vessel is towed to the next location.
JACK - UP RIGS:
Jack-up drilling rigs are similar to a drilling barge because the complete drilling rig is built on a floating hull that must be moved between locations with tug boats. Jack-ups are the most common offshore bottom-supported type of drilling rig. Once on location, a jack-up rig is raised above the water on legs that extend to the seafloor for support. Jack-ups can operate in open water or can be designed to move over and drill through conductor pipes in a production platform. Jack-up rigs come with various leg lengths and depth capabilities (based on load capacity and power ratings). They can be operated in shallow waters and moderate water depths up to about 450 ft.
SEMI - SUBMERSIBLE RIG: Semi-submersible drilling rigs are the most common type of offshore floating drilling rigs and can operate in deep water and usually move from location to location under their own power. They partially flood their pontoons for achieving the desired height above the water and to establish stability. “Semis” as they are called may be held in place over the location by mooring lines attached to seafloor anchors or may be held in place by adjustable thrusters (propellers) which are rotated to hold the vessel over the desired location (called dynamically positioned).
DRILLSHIP: Drillships are large ships designed for offshore drilling operations and can operate in deepwater. They are built on traditional ship hulls such as used for supertankers and cargo ships and move from location to location under their own power. Drillships can be quite large with many being 800 ft in length and over 100 ft in width. Drillships are not as stable in rough seas as semi-submersibles but have the advantage of having significantly more storage capacity. Modern deepwater drillships use the dynamic positioning system (as mentioned above for semisubmersibles) for maintaining their position over the drilling location. Because of their large sizes, drillships can work for extended periods without the need for constant resupply. Drillships operate at higher cruising speeds (between drillsite locations) than semi-submersibles.
WELL SERVICES ENGINES
Drilling rigs use direct current generators and motors that have an approximate efficiency of 68%. Actual efficiency in conjunction with drilling machinery is 87.5% due to additional losses in the power requirements of field induction generators, cooling blower, commutator temperature, brushes, and feeder cable length. In this system, the available energy is limited for the reason that only one DC generator. can be electrically linked to a DC motor. resulting in 1600 H.P. available to drive the winch.
DC (SCR) Drilling Rig
On a DC drilling rig, alternate current (AC) produced by one or more AC generator sets is converted into direct current (DC) by means of a silicon-controlled-rectifier (SCR) system. They obtain an efficiency of 68%; whose available energy is concentrated in a common bar (PCR) and can be partially or totally channeled to the drilling machinery (rotary, winch and pumps) that is required.
AC (VFD) Drilling Rig On an AC powered rig, AC generator sets (diesel engine plus AC generator) produce alternating current that is operated at variable speed via a variable-frequency drive (VFD)
AC versus DC Drilling Rig
Apart from being more energy efficient, AC powered rigs allow the drilling operator to more accurately control the rig equipment, thus enhancing rig safety and reducing drilling time.
AC Drilling Rig Advantages
- Efficient energy consumption due to a high power factor (minimum 95%).
- Precise speed regulation over a wider speed range.
- Constant high power even at low speed.
- Full torque at zero speed.
- Regenerative braking for safe and efficient control of the drawworks.
- Convenient and safe autodriller system for managing and controlling parameters such as weight on bit (WOB), rate of penetration (ROP), and rotary torque control.

MSE MODEL FOR ROTATING DRILLING WITH PDM
MSE has been defined as the mechanical work done to excavate a unit volume of rock.
Unconfined compressive strength (UCS)
Laboratory experiment showed that MSE was numerically close to the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of the formation at maximum drilling efficiency [6]. However, the tests were conducted at atmospheric conditions.
Confined compressive strength (CCS)
In the real drilling process, MSE is numerically close to the CCS of the formation at maximum drilling efficiency. In other words, when drilling achieves a maximum drilling efficiency, the minimum MSE is reached and is roughly equal to the CCS of the rock drilled
Therefore, MSE can be used to detect the peak drilling efficiency by surveilling MSE to see if the MSE(min) is roughly equal to the CCS of the rock drilled.
Although torque at the bit can be easily measured in the laboratory and with Measurement While Drilling (MWD), the majority of field data is in the form of surface measurement.While in the absence of reliable torque at the bit measurements, the calculation of MSE based on this model contains even large sources of error. Therefore, it is only used qualitatively as a trending tool.

VIBRATION IN BOTTOM HOLE ASSEMBLY
SUMMARY
When drilling a well there is a risk of serious damage caused by drillstring vibrations. Shock and vibration are identified as a cause of premature failure on drill bit and components in the bottom hole assembly (BHA), resulting in lost time for operators and costing service companies several millions in repair each year. The expenditures incurred by drillstring vibrations include reduced rate of penetration (ROP), tripping and poor drilling performance. Currently, several tools and techniques are used in the attempt to minimize shock and vibration. For vibration mitigation to be more effective in the future, the most effective tools and techniques must be designated, implemented and improved.
Predicting bottom hole assembly (BHA) vibrations is a complicated problem. Axial, lateral, and torsional vibrations can be coupled and effects such as stick-slip and whirl can magnify the loads. Fatigue, pipe bouncing, and tool joint washouts demon e the complexity of the problem. One type of vibration that can be isolated and analyzed is the rapid destruction of the BHA caused by operating at or close to resonance. At rotating speeds that reinforce the natural vibration of the BHA, the destructive harmonics generate high stresses resulting in very short fatigue life. While other factors may cause BHA failure, a significant percentage of field failures appear to be associated with harmonic vibration, particularly lateral vibration. A simplified model based on harmonic analysis using finite elements has been found to agree well with field experience. The influence of stabilizer placement, drill string forces, and mass of the drilling mud are included in the finite element vibration model. (SPE-16675-MS)
AXIAL VIBRATION : Can cause bit bounce , which may damage bit cutter and bearing.
TORSIONAL VIBRATION : Can cause irregular down - hole rotation. Stick/Slip is often seen while drilling and is a severe form of drillstring torsional oscillation in which the bit becomes stationary for a period. Torsional fluctuations fatigue Drill collars connections and can damage bits. The use of the mud motor may help to address if the main source of excitation is from the bit but the presences of a motor does not prevent stick/slip . The drillstring and BHA above the motor can enter into a stick/Slip motion even when the motor is turning the bit a steady rate.
LATERAL VIBRATION : are most destructive type of vibration and an create large shocks as the BHA impacts the wellbore wall. The interaction between BHA and drillstring contact points may, in certain circumstances , drive the system into backward whirl. Backward whirl is the most severe form of vibration, creating high - frequency and large - magnitude bending moment fluctuations that result in high rates of components and connections fatigue. Imbalance in an assembly will cause centrifugally induced bowing of the drillstring , which may produce forward whirl and result in one - side wear of components.
1.- Schlumberger
2.- Halliburton
Stick-slip and whirl are vibrational problems that limit drilling performance in hard formations and extended reach wells. When these vibrations are present, adding roller reamers to the drillstring can significantly reduce their severity and improve performance. Whirl is characterized by lateral vibration at the bit and in the BHA. When whirl becomes severe, lateral vibrations cause significant side forces in stabilizers. Frictional drag then causes high torque levels at the stabilizers, which can result in stick-slip (fluctuations in BHA rotational speed). This is referred to as “coupled stick-slip.” When these conditions exist, the replacement of stabilizers with roller reamers reduces torque generation at the contact points. Consequently, more torque becomes available to the bit and the driller may raise WOB. This results in reduced bit whirl and improved ROP. The reduction of bit whirl and elimination of stick-slip prevent damage to bit and BHA components
Figure5 shows diagram for each of the three BHA configurations. Note that there are two stabilizers configured in BHA-2. The stabilizer is located at the far left to the bit in BHA-3 compare with BHA-2. There is one stabilizer used in BHA-1 near the bit. The detail descriptions are as following:
Figure6 provides state vectors display comparison for three of BHA surrogates operation at 100RPM and 80000N of bit weight. The lateral vibration potential simulation for BHA-1 is significantly lower than BHA 2 and BHA-3. Especially for the lateral displacement, the effect is most remarkably, which means that the contacts for BHA-1 with wellbore may be less than other BHA surrogates during drilling process. However, the yellow color curve shows the larger amplitudes of the states for BHA-2 than others, which represents the most severe vibration potential.
