1. The most common problems during drilling operation are drill pipe sticking,
lost circulation, deviation of drill pipe from hole, instability of borehole, mud
contamination, formation amage, H2S bearing formation and personnel
related problems. Explain various methods involved in each to overcome.
Answer
CAUSE
a) Settled cuttings - Drilling hardware are not moved out of the opening
because of low precise speed and helpless mud properties.
B )Shale Instability – shale retains water and swell into the wellbore, pipe
consistency, force and drag increment.
d) Differential staying Prognosed low weight sands, expanding over draw slack
off weight or force to begin string development.
Prevention:
b) Lost dissemination –
➢ During penetrating, mud circles with in well to cool the boring piece,
balance out the well, and transport rock cuttings to the surface.
Shockingly, certain stone developments have open regular crack
frameworks, into which the mud will be lost—gambling time, cash and
security. It very well may be overwhelmed by-the expansion of strong
materials to the penetrating mud and by utilizing the non-mud
framework. A portion of the arrangements are :- Liquid thixotropic
operator It helps in overseeing lost flow during solidifying where the
treatment of strong materials are not down to earth.
➢ Advanced organophilic dirt It improves gel quality, suspension of weight
material.
➢ Lost dissemination control treatment-Maintain solidness over the huge
base temperature go.
d) Instability of borehole
Borehole precariousness is that the bothersome state of an open gap span that
doesn't keep up its measure size and shape as well as its basic respectability
and the issues of borehole insecurities can be settled by these techniques :-
1) Proper mud-weight choice and upkeep
(iv) Dry gas condensate reservoir are there in the globe and explain about the
type of drilling survey methods used to identify these reservoir other than
seismic survey.
Answer

➢ Gulf of Mexico
Answer
1) In the well head structure, there are two wing valves which are available
on the two sides. It is obligatory to have both the valves under activities all the
while. Left side valve is called as KILL Wing Valve which controls the
progression of added substances.
What's more, the on the correct side valve is known as PRDUCTION Wing Valve
which controls the extraction of oil and gas from the creation packaging unit.
On the off chance that we supplant it by ace valve, at that point the crack or
spillage which is going on can not be checked straightforwardly and the break
or erosion issues would not be understood consummately.
3) Check and Choke Valves have the capacity to control the progression of
oil and gas from the creation packaging unit and furthermore make a
backpressure so that there will be no reverse happening by then and that
particular time. On the off chance that the weight of the store comes to over
4000 psi, at that point the boring liquid of higher weight will be descended.
The Choke Valve has the weight scope of around 4500 class yet Check Valve
has a weight scope of around 2500 psi.
4. Draw a neat sketch of platform complex (using scale and pencil) containing
(iv) What will you consider to withstand high wind conditions of platform
(v) What is the basic water depth and environmental parameters such as wave,
current
2.Oil stages are one of the heaviest and the greatest stages on the planet
coming to down a huge number of feet in the ocean bed and have the
capacities to hold huge amounts of weight over it. A portion of the models are
:-
The most extreme load of the stages can take up to 700.000 tons, contingent
upon the structure. The plan factor incorporates its area, sorts of stage, what is
the region of required floor, what the speed of current and wind close to the
stage.
3. Drilling stages for the most part comprises of numerous hardware for testing
reason, air blowers, manifolds, estimating tanks, burners, separators.
Creation stages in the seaward areas are the huge stages to bore well in the
hunt of oil and gas, concentrate, store and procedure oil and gas that are
leaked out of the supply rock underneath the seabed. The sorts of seaward
stages are :-
➢ Jack up Rig
➢ Fixed Platform
➢ Complaint Tower
➢ Semi-Submersible Platform.
4. Drill stage in the seaward side can withstand with high wind speed
which is equal to 160 km/hr. On the off chance that the speed of the
breeze surpasses up to 160 km/hr, the penetrating apparatus will take
just 24 seconds to crumple. So as to forestall this we can utilize Semi-
Submersible Rigs it has one extraordinary element which is the power of
lightness which can keep the stage above water on water.
➢ Drilling Barges.
➢ Jack-Up Rigs.
➢ Submersible Rigs
➢ Semi-Submersible Rigs
➢ Drill ships.
6. Describe in detail about gravity load, environmental load and seismic load to
design/install offshore platforms.
Answer
Gravity load
Gravity loads emerge from dead weight of structure and offices either
changeless or brief. Gravity Load includes
It incorporates all essential steel basic individuals, optional basic things, for
example, vessel landing, cushion eyes, stiffeners, handrails, deck plating, and
little access stages. The essential basic steel individuals are determined
dependent on the basic data in the model naturally when a PC program is
utilized to examine the structure. Be that as it may, the heaviness of the
auxiliary basic steel things will be determined applied to the basic model at
proper areas.
The structure fabricated either for boring or wellhead type stage or for process
type stage underpins different hardware and offices. These are fixed sort
things and not auxiliary parts. They don't have any firmness to offer in the
worldwide honesty of the structure and will not be demonstrated. The
heaviness of such things will be determined and applied at the fitting areas as
per the arrangement of the structure. These things incorporate
C) Fluid Loads:
The liquid burdens are weight of liquid on the stage during activity. This may
remember all the liquid for the hardware and channeling. The heaviness of
these things will be determined precisely and applied to the right areas.
D) Live Loads:
Live loads are characterized as portable loads and are impermanent in nature.
Live loads might be applied on zones assigned with the end goal of capacity
either brief or long haul. Further, the regions intended for set down during
pontoon move of materials from vessel will likewise be considered as live
loads. Other live loads incorporate open regions, for example, walkways, get to
stages, and cookroom territories in the living quarters, helicopter loads in the
helipad, and so forth. These heaps will be applied as per the prerequisite from
the administrator of the stage.
E) Drilling Loads:
Penetrating burdens are because of drill rigs put on the head of the stage for
boring purposes.
These will convey response powers on the deck and the firmness of the
penetrating apparatuses isn't considered in the basic investigation. Thus the
heaviness of the structure will be applied as burden on the structure.
Environmental load
Wind Loads:
In applying configuration waves load onto the seaward structures, there are
two different ways of applying it. - Design wave technique - Spectral Method In
configuration wave strategy, a discrete arrangement of configuration waves
(most extreme) and related periods are chosen to create loads on the
structure. These heaps are utilized to process the reaction of the structure. In
the unearthly strategy, a vitality range of the ocean state for the area are taken
and an exchange work for the reaction will be produced. These exchange work
are utilized to register the worry in the auxiliary individuals.
Lightness Loads
The seaward auxiliary individuals are for the most part made light via water/air
proof fixing of the welds to keep away from water section. This is deliberately
arranged, so the general structure has satisfactory lightness during
establishment. Common model is the coat structure.
Ice Loads
For structures situated in Polar districts and cold nations, ice stacking will be
considered in the plan. In these areas, the ice sheets of shifting thickness can
move from one area to other because of tide and submerged flow. These ice
sheets when come nearer and hit the seaward structures, an enormous effect
power is experienced by the structure.
Mud Loads
Stages situated in the region of the waterway mouth (shallow water stages)
may encounter the mud stream loads.
The stream brings residue transport and close by mud towards the stage and
may slide through the area. Some of the time over an extensive stretch of time
silt settlement at the area of the stage may have slanting surface and mud
slides can likewise produce mud loads.
Seismic loads : emerge from gravity stacks and are a determined sort.
Answer
• Structural Materials
– Structural Steel - Low carbon steel utilized for ll sorts of auxiliary individuals
in the stages
– Cement grout - utilized for grouting annulus between the heap and coat leg
or skirt
• Piping Materials
– Stainless steel
– Steel Alloys such duplex steel, excessively duplex steel and so on for moving
destructive liquids such unrefined petroleum and so on
• Miscellaneous Materials
– Fibber Reinforced Plastics - utilized for sprinkle zone insurance of heaps and
individuals, marine development preventer and so on
– Timber - utilized for random applications, for example, dispatch slip, brief
works, mud mat, and so on.
Corrosion Protection
• Select base materials to such an extent that they have erosion safe property
naturally.
Cathodic Protection
• Offshore Platforms
• Jack-up Rigs
• Semi-Submersible Platforms
• Submarine Pipelines
• FPSOs
(i) Fatigue
(ii) Complexity
Answer
(I) :The different boundaries which influence the exhaustion harm of the
securing lines. weariness investigation of securing line are
4) swell part which for the most part orientated into the bearing in longitudinal
pivot of spread secured FPSO gives the higher weariness harm of outside
securing lines by the bigger hurl movement of fairleads because of vessel pitch
movement.
5) Regarded with stacking conditions, the lower draft results in the higher
mean strain of securing line. These high line strains produce the more
weakness harm.
6) Regarding riser conduct, mean float stacks and damping impact of riser gives
the great vessel LF movements and great weariness execution.
(ii)
The other test is the expanded multifaceted nature of securing activities. With
the size of subsea profound water framework, where numerous more up to
date activities are working close by more seasoned foundation, securing
suppliers need to work close to existing subsea offices and pipelines.
At last, there are the distinctive administrative conditions securing suppliers
must work in. While these differ generously around the globe, it is basic that
securing suppliers put wellbeing as a key core interest
(iii)
9. Explain in detail about pre-set mooring and pre-laid mooring with special
emphasis on cost cutting measures?
Answer
By and large, the current locally available chain or wire is associated with the
pre-set moorings On the off chance that a circumstance requires overhauling
or specialization of an apparatus' securing framework for an ideal water
profundity or as extraordinary area conditions direct, it might be financially
savvy to pre-introduce an upgraded securing framework for the apparatus to
use at that boring area.
When the apparatus shows up at the penetrating area, its residual securing
hardware is associated with the pre-introduced framework with a couple of
grapple taking care of vessels (AHVs).
The disengagement of the apparatus is cultivated along these lines with either
the apparatus' securing parts being re-introduced or the apparatus being
moved to another pre-set securing framework.
Water profundity, length of well boring calendar, just as vessel and apparatus
day rates, all assume a huge job in deciding the financial matters of a pre-set
situation.
Answer
1) The means which are should have been trailed the penetrating apparatus
was harmed during typhoon are given beneath –
Like in the locale of Gulf of Mexico, Katrina (tropical storm) thumped down
seaward oil stages, pipelines and other boring gear which supplies oil to US and
produces 2,000,000 barrels for every day. To secure the oil supplies it was
closed down for a half year and over portion of Gulf creation was halted. We
realize that the harm to any penetrating gear barely and exorbitant to fix and
from the sources storm Katrina demolished practically 50% of the oil stages
and just about five boring apparatuses in the Gulf of Mexico.
2) In request to shield the boring stages from the normal marvels happens
simply attempt to introduce or adjust new advances so the apparatuses
balance out and withstand with extraordinary conditions. A portion of the
extraordinary advancements incorporates high-pressure insurance framework
for pipelines, pre-set polyester moorings for profound water boring
apparatuses, and a subsea framework that makes the
