Abstract:There are two main hazards in surface hole section in Mutiara and Pamaguan fields, loss circulation and shallow gas. Blowout incident due to both hazards occurred in Pamaguan in 2012. While influx was moving, the conductor shoe was unable to withstand the differential pressure and cracked due to influx coming up through weak area around conductor shoe (broaching). Hence conductor must be set deeper to make sure the shoe is strong enough to withstand the pressure in case any occurrence of unscheduled events.
