10 11-7/8" Liner Interval
10.1 Introduction
The objective of this interval is to set the 11-7/8" liner as deep as hole conditions will allow
in a compete shale in order to achieve the maximum LOT possible. Currently based on the
seismic available, a shale exists between 15,080'- 15,230' TVD. If hole conditions allow,
the 11-7/8" casing shoe should be set at least 30' into this shale. It is planned to run the
11-7/8" liner into the pilot hole and set 1 0-15' off bottom. The hole size for this interval will
be 12-1/4" x 14-1/2".
10.2 Objectives
Maintain wellbore trajectory.
Set casing in competent shale.
Run and cement 11-7/8" casing with requirement for remedial operations.
Achieve sufficient LOT of 14.6 ppg at the 11-7/8" shoe.

11-7 /8" Liner Interval
10.3 Concerns
Concern I Hazard Mitigation of Concern I Hazard
Utilize BP GoM procedures during 13-5/8' LOT to ensure accurate measurement.
Pore Pressures and Monitor pore pressure trends to ensure proper analysis of wellsite pore pressures.
Fracture Gradients Wellsite leaders, tool pushers, drillers, and crew are responsible for monitoring drilling
trends and will have an active role in ECD management.
GeoTap will be in the BHA to take pressures in any sands necessary, and help provide
a better understanding of the pressure predictions for the remainder of this wel l.
A 0.3 ppg margin will be required based on the current PP/FG margins and casing
point.
Well site leaders must ensure that personnel become familiar with wellbore
pressure/ECD management guidelines.
Vibration issues Utilize all previous lessons learned on 13-5/8" shoe track drilling. Vary drilling
parameters (WOB, RPM, etc) to minimize downhole and/or surface vibrations. Discuss
alternatives with Houston Team.
Lost Circulation Utilize all available tools and personnel for ECD management. Limit pump pressures
when a pack-off is detected or suspected. Have contingency LCM pills mixed and
ready.
Well Control Adhere to standard practices (finger printing flowbacks, pit volume monitoring, PWD,
ROP, etc ... ). Keep track of kick tol_erance. Take slow pump rates prior to 14" drillout.
Casing Wear Casing wear is a critical issue. Install and monitor ditch magnets. Clean ditch magnets
daily. Report daily metal recovery on morning reports. Watch for trends. Dogleg at
11,700' now exists.
Running 11-7/S' Iiner Optimize runni ng speeds to avoid sudden starts and stops. Have .AIIamon system in
place to minimize surge pressures.

10.4 General Drilling Operations Procedure
Rev. 2
1. Ensure BOP has been tested (per compliance with approved APD).
Initiate well control and emergency disconnect drills.
Ensure all personnel are in compliance with MMS Sub Part "0".
2. Ensure 13-5/8" casing and blind shear rams have been tested (per APD
requirements). Record pressure with volume pumped. This data will be compared
with planned 13-5/8" shoe LOT.
3. Pick-up and run-in-hole with 12-1/4" x 14-1/2" drilling assembly (per Sperry BHA):

Note:
Note:
Use lower 4 shear pins. (See Drii-Quip procedures.)
If Wear Sleeve is in well , post (with its I D) on rig floor .
If formation pressure tool is used, give special attention when picking up BHA
to ensure formation pressure probe is correctly oriented in relationship with
the MWD for downhole measurements. WSL I Drilling Engineer I Geologist to
discuss formation pressure objectives prior to running BHA in hole.
Confirm wear bushing 10 will allow running of 11-718" Liner Hanger. If wear
bushing must be pulled to run 11-718" hanger, set up Tool
to pull wear bushing on trip out (utilizing upper 8 shear pin position).
4. TIH to wiper plugs (Drill-out per Directional Drillers and Weatherford procedure)
5. Clean out rat hole and drill 1 0' of new hole.

Note:
Circulate until shaker screens are clean and mud is condit ioned .
Close annular or pipe ram .
Perform LOT per standard GOM procedure (anticipated LOT= 13.86 ppg EMW)
Compare surface value to pumped up downhole and send both to DE .
A minimum acceptable value for a successful LOT will be supplied to the rig. If
this is not reached contact Houston to discuss options prior to drilling ahead.
If LOT is successful- weight up system to at least a 12.8 ppg (surface)
Prior to LOT, obtain ESD value with MWD. However, if unable to get ESD value
after two attempts, continue LOT, and make one more attempt after the LOT.
Shape of LOT curve rather than an actual value will dictate whether a squeeze
job is required.
If surface mud weight is< 0.5 ppg margin from surface LOT, MMS approval i s
required.

6. Drill12-1/4" x 14-1/2" hole using following parameters.
Rev. 2
Parameter Guideline
Inclination Limit DLS to 0.51100 ft and total inclination to 3.0or less to minimize subsequent
and DLS casing wear and mitigate for close casing tolerances.
ROP Control ROP to ensure adequate hole cleaning and ECD management (as
determined by WS Leader and Mud Engineer).
WOB 0-45 kips (limi ted by Vibration, Bit I BHA performance, and Wellbore Inclination)
RPM Planned range: 90-180 rpm. Optimize for ROP, vibration and DLS considerations.
Torque Monitor difference between on and off bottom torque. If surface torque begins to
approach makeup torque of weakest connection in hole, discuss options with
Houston Team (possible MOC with Transocean).
ECDI PWD Maintain ECD I PWD of at least 0.3 ppg < LOT value. (Remember to include any
mud compressibility in LOT number.) MMS approval is required_prior to drilling this
hole section for less than a 0.5 ppg margin. Drilling Engineer will obtain approval
once LOT is complete.
Close coordination between BP wellsite leaders, drilling crew, and L WD Engineers
will be required on ECD management to achieve maximum performance. Roles and
responsibilities of all parties should be discussed in interval planning meeting.
Pump viscous sweeps as needed to clean hole, and minimize ECD.
Pump Rates 750-850 is planned range. Optimize for ROP, hole-cleaning, and ECD limits.
Vibration Monitor vibration indicators to maintain in acceptable range. If vibrations are
encountered, immediately pick up off bottom, allow the energy to dissipate from the
string (may require a full stop), change a drilling parameter and go back to dri lling.
Continue the process until vibrations are improved or eliminated.
Casing Monitor and report daily metal recovery on morning reports. A caliper log may
Wear be uti lized at first logging opportunity (in lieu of a casing test and/or a USIT log).
Section TD 11-7/8" liner point between 15,080, - 15,230' MDnYD (Permit 16,000' TVD). If hole
conditions warrant, discuss alternative casing points with Houston team.
As always if Geo-Tap pressures change pressure prediction, a new section TO will
be determined by the drilling team, which uses these conditions.
7. Pump weighted/viscous sweeps, as needed, to clean hole and minimize ECD. As
this is a vertical wellbore with sufficient pump rate, sweeps should not be required.
8. At interval TD, pump a 100 bbl viscous sweep and circulate until shakers clean up.
9. While tripping out of hole, work through any questionable intervals. If significant
working was necessary, make a short trip prior to running casing.
10. Pull out of hole and rack back or lay down BHA.
Note:
It is not necessary to pull Wear Bushing. JD's should be confirmed with DQ
and Versaflex hands prior to making this decision.

10.5 11-7/8" Casing and Cementing Operations
10.5.1 Casing and Cement Preparation
Prior to shipping, primary float equipment should have been bucked up and
thread-locked onto a joint of pipe. Inspect shoe and float collar joints for debris
prior to picking up.
Rev. 2
Ensure cement, additives, and fresh and seawater samples are sent to cement
company lab for final lab testing.
Use establ ished cement company procedures for BP Deepwater operations for
thickening time lab tests.
Prepare 11-7 /8" casing tally. Clean and inspect casing threads. Drift casing to
10.625 in. Liner has been drifted and callipered onshore prior to mobilization,
utilize the onshore caliper average for displacement calculations.
Calculate swab/surge pressures for various running speeds. Select an
acceptable running speed to ensure formation breakdown pressure is not
exceeded.
Surge calculations and compressibility calculations should be provided to the rig
by the Houston office.
Planned landing string is rig owned, 6-5/8", 32 ppf S-135 DP.
Prior to running casing. drift landing string to 2.875" drift 10 to ensure passage
of Halliburton's 2.750" contingency setting ball.
Ensure ALL crossovers required in landing string are rented, inspected and have
a specific request to provide material certifications to rig and engineer. These
certifications are to be used to verify proper load carrying capabilities.
Ensure all crossovers in string do NOT have internal square shoulders as these
have proven to hang up drill pipe darts. Minimum 30 degree internal tapers.
Long bails (22 ft) may be required to pick up a fill & circulate tool.
Rig up Blackhawk Cement Equipment and stand back in derrick (if desired):

Notes:
Recommended Well Control consideration while running this equipment and
liner:
If fill-ups are marginal:
Convert auto-fill FE and run liner conventionally.
4. Continue running 11-7/8" casing taking into account surge calculations.
Take returns to trip tank.
Verify casing is filling through auto-fill float equipment. If liner is not filling
automatically then fill up should be done at least every 10 joints. Note: circulation
at this point should not exceed 4bpm to prevent converting float equipment.
5. Run - x.xxx' of 11-7/8" liner w/ -300' of liner lap (above where top of cement is
encountered).
6. Once the 11-7/8" liner has been run, free-drop the 3-1 /2" closing ball for the float
collar.
7. Pick-up 11-7/8" x 13-5/8" Versaflex Liner Hanger assembly. Make-up per Versaflex
procedure to casing. Observe and record liner weight. Do not circulate.
Note:
Do not circulate the liner after it is picked up - float collar will be
converted.
Do not exceed 3500 psi at any time while circulating to avoid prematurely
setting liner hanger.
Do not exceed xxxx lbs while TIH. This could prematurely release the
running tool. This value to be determined once running loads are known.
8. Makeup A TC Oiverter Sub 6 stands above top of liner hanger setting tool, and
Diverter Test Device above liner hanger setting tool. Review surge pressure
calculations running speeds with Allaman rep to determine optimum dri ll pipe-running
speed. (For Allaman Tool pressure sequence, see Attachment 5).

9. Carefully lower liner hanger assembly through rotary table and also through BOP
stack.
Trip in hole with liner on drillpipe at speeds dictated by surge calculations and
hole conditions, taking returns to trip tank while liner is inside casing.
Fluid level inside DP and annulus should remain between 30-60' from drill floor
after drillpipe running string is inside riser.

10. When 11-7/8" liner reaches 13-5/8" casing shoe, pickup Top Drive.
Get slow pump rates at 15- 25- 35 spm through open A TC diverter sub.
Record pickup and slack off weights (and rotating weights if requi red) at shoe.
11. Free drop Allaman's 2" (brass) closing ball 10 stands before landing out. Thi s can
also be done prior to going into open hole with casing depending on WSL discretion
and hole conditions.
12. The liner will be run into the pilot hole and should be set 1 0-15' off bottom.
13. After reaching one stand from TD with the liner, pick up the cement head stand and
make-up to the top drive and
Begin pumping slowly while keeping pipe moving.
The 2" ball wi ll be on the seat in the Diverter so pressure up to 1000 psi
slowly and hold same for 2 minutes.
Continue to increase the pump pressure until the ball yields the seat with
2400-2800 psi.
14. After blowing the ball through the Diverter seat let the 2" ball fall to the seat in the
DTD.
Pressure up to 1,000 psi for 2 min confirming the Diverter is closed
successfully.
Yield the seat w/2400-2800 psi.
Go back to circulating and record the pump pressure once returns have
stabilized.
Note: Max circulation rate through plug system BEFORE launching plugs is 12 bpm.
15. Circulate and condition the drilling fl uid for the cement job and position the liner for
the cement job. The float collar will activate during circulation but may not be seen
due to its low shear out pressure
Conversion will occur at 500-700 psi above circulation pressure at 5-8
bpm flow rate). If there are no returns, go directly to cement job.
16. Rig up and pressure test lines to 7,500 psi (6,500 psi may be needed if any
difficulties are encountered during the Versaflex liner hanger expansion process).
Note:
Do not circulate above 30 spm until thick mud is above liner assembly.
While running equipment and liner, consider the following:
Limit liner running speeds to avoid surging formations (no sl ower than
8 minutes per stand). Liner running schedule to be adjusted based on
actual hole conditions.

When attempting to wash-down, there is a greater chance of sticking
liner with additional ECD or creating a packing off problem due to
cuttings bed that is being pushed/circulated.
When closing diverter sub, pipe must be moving at all times. After
closing ATC Diverter tool, go back to circulating slowly (no more than
15 SPM) and immediately washing to bottom.
All pup joints and cross-overs must be free of " bore-backs" or square
shoulders (less than 1/8" transition) and must have high angle tapers
to ID from root thread in box. Tapers should be at least 30 degrees.
Give special attention to full open safety valve below Cement head to
prevent hanging-up DP dart during displacement. A Teflon bushing on
top of valve assembly will help transition dart cleanly.
Ensure Torque and Drag calculations have been performed to
determine the number of Emergency Release pins installed in the
Versaflex running tool.

10.5.3 Cementing Procedure
Rev.2
1. Mix & displace the spacer and launch the bottom DP dart wi th 3-5 bbl of cement
ahead of dart.
When the dart leaves the cement head, the Blackhawk cement head indicator
should confi rm the dart has left the head. Position running tool for cement
operations.
2. Mix & pump the cement job per HES procedure.
After pumping the cement job, launch the top DP dart with 5-10 bbl of cement
behind dart. Indicators should be seen from the Blackhawk cement head
confirming the top dart left the head.
Line up rig pumps to take over cement di splacement after cement unit pushes
out top DP dart.
If DP dart is followed by cement, pump spacer to minimize contamination of
Note: slurry/drilling mud. This can J1revent the ball seating if contingency setting
process is needed. launching plugs is 12 bpm.
3. Continue with displacement (make sure to account for compressibility) .
Approximately 5 bbls before the bottom DP Dart reaches the diverter sub, slow
the pump rate to 3-4 bpm. The pressure required to yield the seat in the di verter
and DTD with the bottom DP dart should be 2500-3000 psi above the circulati ng
rate.
After yielding the seat, continue to pump the bottom DP Dart down to the
bottom plug at 3-4 bpm. The bottom plug with launch with 800-1200 psi. After
the plug is released, continue with the displacement of the cement at the
maximum rate.
App'roximately 5 bbls before the top DP Dart reaches the diverter sub, slow the
pump rate to 3-4 bpm. The pressure required to yield the seat in the Diverter and
DTD with the top DP dart should be 2500-3000 psi above the ci rculating rate.
After yielding the seat, continue to pump the top DP Dart down to the t op plug
at 3-4 bpm. The top plug should release with 2000-2500 psi. After the pl ug is
released, continue with the displacement of the cement at the maximum rate.
Just prior to the bottom plug reaching the float collar, slow down to 3-4 bpm to
witness the landing of the plug. The bottom plug burst tube should rupture with
900-1100 psi .
After bottom plug has landed, re-zero the stroke counter and pump calculated
cement volume to see the top plug land.
If bottom plug does not bump or top plug is late, do not exceed 1/2 shoe track
volume + compressibility. Bump top plug with 1000 psi over circulating pressure
(land/lock).

Bleed off pressure and check floats are holding. Measure flow back .
Note:
If unable to bump plug or if floats do not hold, discuss wait on cement times
with Houston Team prior to setting Versa Flex liner hanger.
A 2-7/8" setting ball will be required if top plug does not bump or floats do not
hold.
4. Once confirmed the float is holding, prior to expanding the liner hanger, place the
setting tool in tension by picking up an additional 40,000 lbs over the neutral weight
of the workstring to the setting tool.
5. Pressure up to 5,500 psi to deploy the Versaflex fl apper. Record volume required to
reach 3,000 psi as reference to determine if flapper as functioned. Hold for 5
minutes. Release pressure. Record volume.
6. Expand Versa Flex liner hanger.
During expansion maintain a constant pumping rate of 1/2 bpm and observe
constant pressure increase.
Verify that the flapper has functioned by observing the volume required to build
3000psi compared to the recorded volume from the step above.
Pressure will drop off after the internal bypass is activated. This indicates
expansion is complete.
If flapper has not functioned repeat process. If unable to verify flapper function go
to contingency process.
Pressure will drop off after the internal bypass is activated indicating that the
expansion is complete. Stop pumping and bleed off pressure.
I Warning: Do not exceed 6,000 psi.
7. PU on setting tool 50,000-1 00,000 lbs over previous PU weight to confirm hanger is
set.
8. Slack off to neutral weight (Buoyed DP + Block Weight). Set down additional 30,000
lbs on setting tool to release from the liner setting sleeve.
9. PU on setting tool and pull out of hanger with 50,000-100,000 lbs overpull. Record
overpull through clad section.
10. Drop nerf ball and circulate a minimum of 1-1/2 times the DP volume - or until mud is
clean. Work pipe while circulating, but do not rotate (while circulating or
POOH) as this may damage the setting tool.
11 . Test casing and blind/ shear rams (per APD requirements).
Discuss changes in MW and/or test pressures wi th Dril ling Engineer.
Drilling Engineer will notify MMS on any APD variations.

Weatherford Plug DO Procedure
The drill out procedures presented below are a recommended guideline and does not cover all situations. Final dec1s1ons
on ho"' drillout should be controlled by the operator and within bit manufactures limits of operation.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
Apply Weatherford Tube Lok rM Compound to the bottom six thread connections and the float equipment threads. Apply to
the pin thread only. This helps prevent the shoe joint from backing off during drillout.
For standard plug sets the top cementing plug should be released while pumping cement Pump an additional 10 feet
(three meters) of cement on top of the plug. Non-rotating plugs do no! require cement to be pumped after !he top plug, but
cement lines can be flushed on top of top plug.
Make up BHA v.'ith a near bit stabilizer as close to the bit as possible.
Check the bit diameter with the Roat equipment drillout diameters to verify clearances.
A j unk basket may be used near the bit to catch large pieces of materials.
Do not use any type of automatic driller.
Do not "spud" or sit the b1t weight suddenly on the plugs or float equipment.
DRILL OUT PROCEDURE WITH PDC BIT ON DRILL STRING:
After tagg1ng the top of the cement or top plug. turn drill string at 60- 80 RPM and pump at a sufficient flow rate to remove
drilled cuttings. Some operators use 40- 50 GPM per inch of bit diameter as a starting point. Slowly apply 2.000 pounds
(909 kg) weight on bit (WOB) until the bit pattern is made. Slowly build WOB to 3.000 to 5,000 pounds (1,363 to 2.272
kg).
Maintain 3.000 to 5,000 pounds (1,363 to '2,272 kgj WOB while drilling the float equipment.
If the rate of penetration (ROP) slows or the torque increases. the bit should be raised while continuing to rotate and
circulate. Slowly lo..ver the bit and follow the above recommendations. This helps remove debris and cementing pl ug
wipers.
If the ROP stop,s or the torque declines. this could indicate that the bit is spinning without cutting.
: Stop rotating. reduce the flow rate to !'No or three BPM. and put 3,000 to 5.000 pounds (1.363 to 2.272 kg) WOB
(Note: High flow rates v.ill decrease the effective WOB).
: Pick-up and begin rotating to 40 - 60 RPM. Slowly set down increasing WOB to 5,000 to 6,000 pounds (2.272 to
2.726 kg).
-:- Resume drilling with original parameters once normal drilling characteristics are observed.
If the drillout characteristics change, i.e. drill pipe or rotary table star1s vibrating excessively, change ei ther the WOB,
RPM. or the circulation rate until the drillout characteristics normalize. Resume dnlling with the original parameters once
normal drillout characteristics are observed.
Convex bits tend to perform better when drilling out plugs and float equipment than do concave bits. since convex bits are
less likely to trap foreign materials under the bit
If the ROP stops and cannot be restarted using the above recommendations. then ret rieve the bit for inspect1on.

DRILL OUT PROCEDURE:
1. Start rotation above the wiper plugs/float collar. approximately 30 rpm while circulating.
2. Adjust pump rates to achieve a ratio of 1.5-2.0 hydraulic horsepower per sq. in. of bit area. Some operators use 40
gpm per inch of bit diameter as a starting point.
3. Ease into pl ugs, increasing rpm to 40 - 60 rpm.
4. Increase WOB (weight on bit) using 2.000- 3,000 lbs. per inch of bit diameter.
5. Monitor penetration rate and adjust WOB as required.
6. Raise the BHA and bit once through the plugs (approx. 2ft. ), again after drilling midway through the float collar. after
completing the float collar or as often as dictated by hole conditions.
