Shallow Horizontal Wells In the Gulf of Mexico Consolidated by Tony Pershall with Input from Scott Levad, Gary

Wygul, James Tunnell, & Tim French. Devon s West Cameron 587 project we drilled seven wells, 1500 to 3000 feet TVD & as far out as 6000 feet in Section. The objective was to drill horizontally through these shallow thin gas bearing sands (8 to 20 feet thick) drilling 600of pay. Utilizing the GST, and adapting our drilling practises we were able accomplish all objectives & did so 30% under AFE. All seven wells are producing more that expected, averaging 12 MCF each, 70% more than vertical wells drilled through these sands. In this report I have included Lessons Learned & Best practices from the Directional Drillers responsible for making what we wanted to do on paper work on the rig. (Thanks guys) I ve also included PvS, BHA s, & Slide sheets from one well & some Bragging Graphs that sums up what we were able to accomplish as a Team. Drilling Sidetracking is the most prevalent hazard while drilling. Always exercise extreme caution regarding sidetrack during all drilling operations. Intentional open hole sidetracks can be accomplished with one 20stroke of the BHA at a low side orientation. Never circulate off bottom unless back reaming or moving the pipe with a high side orientation to avoid hole wash out and sidetrack. Never short trip, the risk of sidetrack is too high. Back-ream every connection to improve the condition of the hole and improve hole cleaning. Back-ream connections instead of short tripping. Back ream up and orient to high side to run back to bottom. If you continually carry a high side-chalk mark on the drill pipe, you will save time and avoid hole wash out by not having to wait for MWD T/F sync. Never trip back into open pilot hole with a drilling BHA to avoid sidetrack. If it is necessary to trip into open pilot hole consider opening the hole with a hole opener first. Avoid tripping double-bend GST motors back into any hole size to avoid the chance of sidetrack. Never pump while tripping a drilling BHA into any open hole. If the BHA will not go into the open hole, pull back out and pick up a hole opener BHA. Open the hole to bottom and then pick up the drilling BHA and re-commence drilling. Drill 9 7/8pilot hole for both 17 and 12 . This will yield better directional control and hole cleaning while drilling and less chance of sidetrack while opening the hole. Mud weight must be carefully planned and maintained. The risk of the hole collapsing is just as high as it is of losing circulation. North-seeking electronic gyro tools should only be used to orient and survey when drilling out of the 20conductor. Conventional photomechanical gyro tools that are tied into north by eyeball measurements to a tugboat-compass rig-bow-heading are far too inaccurate. The MWD tool should be run with the gyro-BHA and as soon as it yields an expectable magnetic azimuth and GTF, pull the gyro out of the string.

Plan the drill string so that the HWDP never exceeds 60 degrees of inclination. Do not plan to trip out of the hole to move the HWDP. It may be necessary to pick up the HWDP before planned to get to bottom when tripping through the 9 5/8casing to drill the 8 hole due to the higher coefficient of friction in new casing. In addition when drilling at 1500 to 2000TVD the HWDP should be run so that it is at the top when starting to drill the horizontal section. And if necessary it should be stood back and used to drill when sliding becomes difficult due to lack of available string weight. To achieve DLS, keep weight on the bit at all times by drilling up to 1000 feet per hour. Do not lower the pump rate below 250 gpm in any hole size. Do not stop drilling when changing from sliding to rotating. Spend as little time possible pumping and orienting the BHA before sliding. Record GST at bit inclination measurements every 10 . The DLS achieved on wells so far has been 3/100to 15.5/100 . The 1.83-degree bend standard 6 motor generated 10 /100DLS in the 9 7/8 pilot hole below the 20drive pipe. The 2.12-degree bend standard 6 motor generated 12 /100DLS in the 9 7/8 pilot hole below the 20drive pipe. The 1.50-degree bend standard 6 motor generated 8 /100DLS in the 12 pilot hole below the 20drive pipe. The 1.83-degree bend standard 6 motor generated 8+ /100DLS in the 12 pilot hole below the 20drive pipe. The 1.25-degree bend 6 GST motor generated 9+ /100DLS throughout the 9 7/8pilot hole below the 13 3/8casing. The 1.50-degree bend 6 GST motor generated 12 +/100DLS throughout the 9 7/8pilot hole below the 13 3/8casing. The 1.5-degree fixed plus 0.78-degree adjustable double-bend 6 3/4 GST motor generated 15.5/100' DLS throughout the 9 7/8pilot hole below the 13 3/8casing. The 1.5-degree bend 6 GST motor generated 8+ /100DLS throughout the 8 1/2 production hole below the 9 5/8casing. Hole Opening There should never be any jets in the hole opener below the cutters. All bull-nose jets must be blanked off, regardless of the vendorsrecommendations. Any jet in the bullnose renders the bull-nose ineffective by immediately washing out the extremely soft formations. A jet in the bull-nose end or side will cause a sidetrack. A jet in the side of the bull-nose on well A-15 caused and incidental sidetrack and 100+ feet of new hole was drilled unknowingly in very soft sand. Make all connections on bottom when a hole opener BHA is in the hole. Never pull the bull-nose out of the pilot hole. Drill down to the slip setting depth, stop drilling, don t pick up, set the slips, make the connection, pull up only enough to get the slips out and recommence drilling.

Open the hole at a minimum of 300 feet per hour. Always try to keep a little weight on the bit even if you must drill at 1000 feet per hour. Pump at least 650 gpm. Rotate at 120 RPM. Never rotate if sitting still. Back ream the hole opener out of the hole. Run a full gauge near bit stabilizer immediately behind all hole openers. The full gauge stabilizer will help prevent sidetrack. Also, a full gauge stabilizer will help to fully open the hole at the excessive rates of penetrations require for hole opening operations on these type wells. Spiral-bladed near bit stabilizers will better support the hole opener, do less damage to the well bore wall and have less ability to induce sidetrack in these soft formations than will straight-bladed stabilizers. Casing All casing strings should always be set on bottom prior to cementing. This is to avoid hole troubles seen during well A-18 caused by sloughing and caving cement from the 59' of rat hole left below the 13 3/8" casing. The cement fell down hole and caused two incidental sidetracks and a premature hole opener run. Orienting the deviated drive pipe should only be done with a north-seeking electronic gyro. Conventional photomechanical gyro tools that are tied into north by eyeball measurements to a tugboat-compass rig-bow-heading are far too inaccurate. The deviated drive pipe may walk right or left in azimuth by as much as 45 degrees while being driven. The planned direction of the drive pipe should always take this into consideration for anti-collision. The pipe orientation can not be controlled while it is being driven, except while the pipe is still driving at less than 50 hit per foot, a pad eye can be welded on and tension held with a air tugger which as the pipe is driven can turn the pipe in the desired direction. The four stabilizer bars welded to the bottom 10of the drive pipe shoe must be absolutely straight to help prevent the pipe from walking right or left while it is being driven. The pipe orientation can not be controlled while it is being driven except as mentioned above. The painted scribe lines on the deviated drive pipe must be absolutely straight to avoid mis-orientation before the pipe is driven. All scribe lines should be inspected for straightness with a level-center-finder on the rig prior to picking up the pipe. The 20" drive pipe had a deviated shoe with a 0.4-0.6 degree bend 8 feet behind the shoe. The deviated drive pipe build rates on six wells were: A-18 was 3.12/100 DLS. A-15 was 4.44/100 DLS. A-16 (Q-Slot) was 4.25/100 DLS. A-17 was 4.03/100 DLS. A-8 was 9.47/100DLS (drive pipe kicked off platform structural member) A-9 was 3.19/100DLS

The 20" drive pipe had a deviated shoe with a 0.4-0.6 degree bend 8 feet behind the shoe. The deviated shoe on the 20drive pipe could have a more aggressive bend, 0.8 to 1.2 degrees to yield a greater DLS on future wells. The maximum DLS that 13 3/8casing can be run in without sidetrack is 10/100 . The 13 3/8" casing should have a deviated shoe joint with a 1.0-1.5 degree bend 10 feet behind the shoe to assist getting it bottom in the soft formations when the DLS is greater than 10/100 . Displace the open 12 hole prior to running 9 5/8casing with fresh mud (9% low gravity solids), 2% lubricant and 6#/bbl polymer beads to reduce the coefficient of friction significantly. Torque and drag calculations for 9 7/8casing runs experienced on nonlubricated wells yield a coefficient of friction 0.40. The A-17 well 12 open hole displace yielded a coefficient of friction of 0.285. The lack of solids and the lubrication reduced the friction factor for A-17 by 29%. The cost of the new mud pill was $10,000. Directional Future well-bore planning should include a graduated build rate immediately beneath the drive pipe. The formation at the drive pipe shoe is extremely soft and will not allow the hole-opener or 13-3/8casing to follow an aggressive bend. Always plan the wells with enough cushion to allow one incidental sidetrack. Every incidental sidetrack will cause the loss of at least 3 degrees of inclination and or azimuth turn and the loss of at least 10of TVD. Survey intervals should be no more than 30to insure TVD accuracy. Once the well is horizontal in the target sand, angle can be maintained by weight on bit, flow or ROP. An ROP of 150ft/hr or less will cause a drop in angle, an ROP of 300ft/hr or more will build angle. Except for azimuth or a change in geologic interpolation sliding can be held to a minimum. The drive pipe shoe will rarely end up being at the exact planned bottom hole location. Small inaccuracies in setting-depth, inclination and direction will dramatically effect the forward directional plan to achieve the directional targets. It is absolutely necessary to redesign the well path even when small errors occur with the Drive pipe shoe location. It is necessary to have strong well planning skills on the rig with PowerPlan s Well Design program. A new directional plan should be prepared from every new projected bit location to drill the straightest path to the target (PBHL). This will minimize torque and drag experienced while running the casing and production strings. Always try to optimize the sail angle in the tangent section foremost when redesigning directional plans. Try to conserve TVD footage first to allow the lowest possible sail angle. This will maximize the ability to run casing and production strings. Make azimuth corrections to the new well plans only after inclination, TVD and sail angles have been optimized.
