Issue: May 1998
Special Focus
Review of mud systems used over 40 years relative to downhole corrosion protection. Important tips on system chemistry and tubular handling
Part 2 – Guidelines for maintaining primary plunger lift components, plus a troubleshooting chart to aid in keeping the system efficient
Possibilities for practical use of the chemical to generate heat around the wellbore to lower oil viscosity or remove formation damage
Methods for determining acceptable clearance between casing strings to optimize casing sizes for today's more challenging completions
How Phillips used coiled tubing to remove scale, fish a safety valve and kill the well when problems stalled a conventional workover
Features
Large diameter pipelines in very-deep water require special techniques such as free-flooding and use of mechanical vs. welded connections
Part 3 – How use of drillstring vibration analysis helped lower drilling costs and identify/ correct such destructive conditions
Rapid prototyping improves bit design * Two systems facilitate subsea connections * Converting jackup to D&P cuts field costs * New Dutch lab offers offshore simulation
Fault interpretation with automated 3-D software * Neural network research by DeepLook * Raster log technology for display/ analysis * Java computing language for E&P * Solid streamers and computing network cut seismic turnaround
