Understanding Multiphase Flow Modeling for N2 Concentric Nitrogen Injection Through Downhole Pressure Sensor Data Measurements While Drilling MPD Wells
Abstract:Hydraulic modeling is a fundamental piece of any Managed Pressure Drilling operation using multiphase gasified drilling fluids. MPD Engineers rely on hydraulic flow modeling systems to predict equivalent circulating densities. Models also allow designing and manipulating hydraulic parameters such as gas/liquid ratios, pressures and flow rates to achieve desired conditions. Therefore, the selection and calibration of the correct hydraulic model is critical for the success of any MPD Operation. The ECD calculati… Show more
