Information
Volumetric and Lubricate & Bleed are special well control methods which will be used when the circulation is not possible. It is very important to understand the concept because without right knowledge, you may unintentionally bring more influx. This quiz will focus on Volumetric and Lubricate & Bleed and there are a total of 20 questions which cover both concept and calculations. Therefore you need to use a calculator to solve the problem. We wish you would enjoy doing the quiz and please feel free to leave any questions/comments.

Question 1 of 20
1. Question
Boyle’s Law states that gas pressure directly relates to its volume. If a volume of a gas is compressed, the pressure in the gas will increase. On the other hand, if a gas expands, the pressure in the gas will decrease.
How do you state it mathematically?
Correct
Incorrect
-
Question 2 of 20
2. Question
Which of the following situations would require the use of volumetric well control?
Correct
Incorrect
-
Question 3 of 20
3. Question
What is the annulus capacity factor (bbl/ft) between 18 inch hole and 13 3/8” casing?
Correct
Annular capacity = (182 – 13.3752) ÷ 1029.4 = 0.141 bbl/ft
Incorrect
Annular capacity = (182 – 13.3752) ÷ 1029.4 = 0.141 bbl/ft

4. Question
Is volumetric control method a well kill method?
Correct
Incorrect
-
Question 5 of 20
5. Question
Before executing the volumetric well control method, which parameters need to be determined?
Correct
Incorrect
-
Question 6 of 20
6. Question
What is the typical recommended safety factor for volumetric well control?
Correct
Incorrect
-
Question 7 of 20
7. Question
What is the Mud Increment based on the following information?
Pressure Increment = 100 psi
Current mud weight = 9.0 ppg
Annulus capacity factor = 0.055 bbl/ft
Correct
Mud Increment = (100 x 0.055) ÷ ( 0.052 x 9) = 11.75 bbl
Incorrect
Mud Increment = (100 x 0.055) ÷ ( 0.052 x 9) = 11.75 bbl
