Virtually all the mathematics required on a drilling rig is presented in one convenient source, including formulas for pressure gradient, specific gravity, pump, output, annular velocity, buoyancy factor, riser margin, and many other topics.

This “must have” guide:

• Provides detailed calculations for the most common problems faced daily by engineers, including offshore calculations, horizontal drilling, and many other state-of-the-art technologies in drilling operations

• Includes formulas for pressure gradient, specific gravity, pump, output, annular velocity, buoyancy factor, riser margin, and many other topics.

• Serves as a handy study guide for drilling and well control certification courses

With thousands of handy formulas and calculations, this is an indispensible reference for any drilling, production, or petroleum engineer.
