Well Killing/Sub-due: Circulation rather than bull heading (pumping in with no returns) is the preferable
way to kill / Sub-due conventional completions. An adjustable choke should be
used on the tubing/casing outlet to hold a stable backpressure on the formation

when killing a well. The main principal involved in all well killing / sub-due
methods is to keep bottom hole pressure constant.

The various killing methods are given below:

Drillers method.

Wait & Weight Method.

Concurrent Method.

Volumetric Method.

First three methods are circulating methods in which influx is circulated out by
fresh Brine / Mud. Keeping the bottom hole pressure constant.

The fourth method is a non-circulating method in which the influx is brought

out due to heavy gravity of Brine/Mud is placed in the well bore without
circulation.

In drillers Method two circulations are required. In first circulation influx is

removed from the well and in second circulation kill Mud/Brine replaces the
original Mud/Brine and restores the primary control of the well.

In wait and weight Method well is killed/sub-due in one circulation only.

Volumetric Method is a non-circulating method and implemented mainly in

two steps namely the Bleeding and lubrication process.

Remove X/Mas Tree and T/H.

Install BOP and Testing of BOP:

After killing/Sub-due the well, well keep open under observation for HR if
NO activities then remove X/Mas tree and T/H and Install BOP on well. Make

all line connection BOP to Accumulator and carry out Functional and Pressure
test of BOP. If OK Rig is ready for initial operation of Draw works.

Release of Packer, Circulation and initial P/O of the string :

Release the packer by straight pull/ rotation and straight pull. Some time
reciprocating is required . After releasing the packer, circulate the well one
cycle and observe the well for hr, if no activities start p/o of the string
( initial) .

Activation of well:

After the well is perforated, it is activated by reducing the hydrostatic head

over the formation and to induce flow of formation fluid into the well. This is
done by following methods. 1. by swabbing 2. By air compressor 3. By
nitrogen 4. By unloading g l v

Connect the well to GGS:

After the well becomes activate with oil and gas ( knocking and water
completely from the well) flow the well to pit for hr. connect well to GGS
for stabilization them carry out details testing of true

well, the rig will be

released for next point .

Different type of work over jobs well servicing:Well servicing means the servicing of the down hole equipments and removal of
bottom hole deposits from well bore

Layer wise testing:-

Sometime drilling is released after hermetical testing of true casing . So the work
over rig is deployed to carry out the layer wise testing of the well to reduce the
cost of drilling rigs testing time .

Zone transfer:It is the shifting of zone only. This is done due to non-availability of oil and gas
from the zone. This is done by first isolate the zone by cement squeeze / plug or
putting Bridge plug, then transfer to other zone.

Water/ gas shut off

When unwanted water /Gas is flowing and reduced the production of oil in the
Well, this is done by the following methods.
1. By block cementation / Squeeze.
2. By chemical/ Polymer Squeeze.
3. Isolated by Cement Plug/ Bridge Plug.

Fishing:
It is a process in which the broken or stuck equipment or all of anything from a
part of all down hole equipments, string or any material accidentally dropped into
the well bore is recovered from the well bore.

Causes of fishing: Broken of string.

Stuck of string.
Broken of well servicing equipment.
Producing sand from the formation.

 Poor quality of packer.

Faulty design of completion.
Any foreign material accidentally dropped into the well.
There are many different methods to use with the various types of Fishing Jobs.
Each fishing job is unique. But there are some basic techniques and tools
commonly used in most jobs. Fishing is mainly of two types.
1. Open hole fishing.
2. Cased hole fishing.

Evaluating the fishing problems:For evaluating fishing the following informations are required. It is extremely
important that complete and accurate data is recorded.
Well data.
String Data
Well Condition.

Locating the fish:There are three systems to locate the fish.

1.by pipe stretch method 2. By electrical free points 3. By drill pipe / tubing
recover log .

Pipe stretch method

L=Exexw
40.8 x P
Where L = length of free point in feet .
E = modulus of elasticity - 30000 psi

e = differential elongation inches

W = weight of pipe
p = differential pull in pounds

By electrical free point :

Surveys have eliminated most of the guess work about where to back of and start
fishing . It locates the lowest point where the pipe is free.

Drill pipe / tubing recovery log

The drill pipe / tubing recovery log is an acoustical survey used to determine
stuck point in drill pipe / tubing
When the string is stuck up condition following are the methods to

recovery

the string .

String shot method .

Controlled back off .

Blind back off .

String shot : The string shot is a prima cod explosion into the well to the desired depth
opposite a tubing coupling or tool joint as indicated by the collar locator.
Applying left hand torque to the string completes back of and holding while the
shot is exploded. If the correct torque is applied, the jar of the explosion will
cause the threaded connection to unscrew .

Controlled back off : After locating the free point the pipe is backed off immediately above the stuck
point inside the casing.
Back off Method:- 1. Before a back off. Free point.

Blind back off:The Blind Back off refers to backing off a stuck string with out the use of a free
point. In practice the book load is either increased or decreased to equal the
weight of the string to the desired back off depth. Left hand torque is applied in
increment. The string is worked up and down after each increment in an attempt
to make the applied torque reach the desired point of back off is not
recommended.

Back off method:Before a Back Off, first determine the depth of free point.
Make up string to a maximum of 80% of the tensional limit.
Put the neutral point on a level with the joint to back off. The weight indicator
tension is given by
T = P + Ph x S
1000
Where, T= Weight Indicator tension in 103 daN
P= weight in mud off the free length of string + T /B
Assembling in 103 daN .
Ph = hydrostatic pressure at the back off point in bar
S = Area of malting surface of joint .
Apply left hand twist amounting to 60 to 80 % of the rightward twist used to
make up string.

Fishing tools : Mainly fishing tools are classified in two groups ,

1.Externally engage tool
2. Internally engage tool .

Circulating overshot : It is the strongest tool available to externally engage, pack and the pull a Fish. It
has a Top Sub, Bowl, Grapple, inner seal, Mill control, outer seal and guide.

Die collar:It is simple, rugged, dependable, external Catch fishing tools.

Impression Block
It is a soft lead insert in the lower end of steel housing, used in fishing operations.
It is designed to enable the operation to determine the configuration of the top of
the fish and to locate its position in the well bore. Its use enables the operation to
more precisely assess the fishing conditions and select the proper tools needed
to successfully complete the fishing operation.

Rotary taper tap

It is simple, rugged, dependable, internal Catch fishing tools.

Releasing spear
It is simple, rugged, dependable, internal Catch fishing tools. It has Mandrel,
Grapple, Releasing Ring and Nut.

Non- Releasing spear

It is simple, rugged, dependable, internal Catch fishing tools. It has Mandrel,
Grapple, Dies and top sub.

Junk basket
It is rugged Junk Fishing device, using either a Mill Shoe or Flat Bottom Shoe,
used for retrieve all types of small Junk Objects in the well bore.

Reverse Circulating Junk Basket

It is used to retrieve all types of small junk objects in the well bore.

Magnet
It is used to retrieve all types of small objects having magnetic attraction from
well bore.

Rotary shoe
It is used to mill the annular of the junk / flat junk Or Struck Metal Object

Abandoning of the well: When the hydrocarbon is not produced from the well bore due to reservoir
depletion or water flooded of layers.
Abandoning is carried out .
First isolate the layer by putting the cement plug of 100 M/ 150M above
internals or setting a bridge plug above the intervals. It is called first
isolation for abandoning and a 200 M below the ground level. Remove the
Well Head and Cap the well by placing one M.S. Plate/Flange.

Well control in Abnormal situation:Kick:It is defined as an influx or flow of formation fluid into the well bore and can
occur any time the formation pressure is greater then the hydrostatic pressure
in the well.

Blow out:
It is an uncontrolled flow of formation fluid at the surface or sub surface from
the well bore.

Primary Well Control:The maintenance of sufficient hydrostatic head exerted by subdue fluid to
hold back the formation fluid pressure is termed as primary well control.

Secondary Well Control:If due to any reason hydrostatic pressure in the well bore falls below the
formation pressure, formation fluid may enter in the well bore and if so
happens the primary control may be temporarily lost and proper use of BOP
and kill procedures will provide secondary well control .

Pressure:It is defined as force exerted per unit area.

Hydrostatic Pressure
It is the pressure exerted by a static column of fluid by virtue of its density. It
depends on the vertical height (TVD) of the column and the density of the fluid.

Hydrostatic Pressure (PSI)

= Depth (TVD) in ft * Mud / Brine density (PPG) *

0.052

Hydrostatic Pressure ( kg / cm2 )

= Depth (meter) / 10 * mud / brine sp.gr

Pressure gradient:When pressure of fluid of a given density is measure over a given unit depth
the term is known as pressure gradient.

For example:-

Fresh water has a density 8.33 PPG and 1 ft column of it shall exert a pressure
of = 8.33 * 1*0.052= 0.433 PSI
Therefore pressure gradient of fresh water is 0.433 psi / ft .

Formation Pressure:
Formation / Pore pressure is the pressure exerted by the fluid trapped in the
Pores of the formation. Formation pressures are two types
1. Normal formation pressure.
2. Abnormal formation pressure.

Normal formation Pressure:When the pressure gradient is up to 0.465 psi / ft , it is normal formation
\pressure

Abnormal Formation Pressure:

When the pressure gradient is more then 0.465
psi / ft. It is abnormal formation pressure.

Work Over Rig

It Is A Drawing Lifting Machine To Carry Out Different Production Activities At The Active
Well/ Ceased Well/ Injection Well/ New Well In Oil Field.
Rig Selection

Rig Selection Is One Of Picking A Rig Capable Of Doing The Particular Work Over Or
Service Job For The Lowest Over All Cost. It Depends Upon The Following Points .1. Death
Or Load Capacity . 2. Braking Capacity3.Derrick Capacity .4. Draw Work Is Capacity.5.
Operational Efficiency.
Depth Or Load Capacity

Rig Capacity Is Commonly Depended Upon The Depth Or The Well And Rating With
A Particular Size Off Tubing Usually 27/8 Tubing .
Braking Capacity

It Is Also Depended Upon The Depth Of The Well. Braking Capacity Is A Prime
Consideration In Rig Selection. The Energy Is Developed In Lowering Pipe The Well. The
Energy Converted To Heat By The Braking System, Must Be Effectively Dissipated Braking
Effort Is A Function Of The Area Of Friction Blocks Forced Against The Rim Thus Effective
Brake Area Is An Important Factor For selection Of Rig. Lowering A 50,000 Lbs Tubing String
In The Well At The Rate Of One Double In 10 Seconds Develops About 545 Hp Or 4000 BTU
Of Heat.
Derrick Capacity

Two Types Of Masts Are Used In Work Over Rigs. Both Signal And Double Pole Masts
Are Used with double pole type it is Possible To Install A Rocking Board. And Hang Sucker
Rods Where As With Signal Pole Type, Rods And tubing Must Be Laid Down. The Double
Pole Is More Popular.
Draw Works Hp

Draw Works Horse Power Determines The Speed At Which Pipe Can Be Pulled From
The Well. Loaded Hook Speed Must Be Compromised With The Cost And Weight Of The
Engine, Transmission, And Draw Works Required To Develop The Power And Translate That
Power Into Line Pull And Line Speed. Rig Designers Must Balance Engine Horse Power, Gear
Ratio Etc. To Produce A Workable Rig, Normally An Empty Block Should Run About 5 To 7
Ft/Sec. Signal Line Pull Should Be About 35000 LBS With A 1,40,000 LBS Hook Load
Capacity Mast Having Four Lines Strung To The Traveling Block. A Fully Loaded Block
Should Run About 1 Ft/ Sec.
Operational Efficiency

Operational Efficiency Is Speed Per Unit Of Over All Cost With Which The Required
Operations Can Be Performed. Personnel Capability, Training & Motivation Are Primary
Factors Affecting, Operational Efficiency In Addition To The Design And Application Of
The Mechanical Equipment. Proper Choice Of Accessories Maximizes Operational Efficiency.
