1. the activities and methods of preparing a well for the production of oil and gas or for other purposes, such as injection; the method by which one or more flow paths for hydrocarbons are established between the reservoir and the surface. 2. the system of tubulars, packers, and other tools installed beneath the wellhead in the production casing; that is, the tool assembly that provides the hydrocarbon flow path or paths.
Industry:Oil & gas
the large hook mounted on the bottom of the traveling block and from which the swivel is suspended.
Industry:Oil & gas
the methods used to control a kick and prevent a well from blowing out. Such techniques include, but are not limited to, keeping the borehole completely filled with drilling mud of the proper weight or density during operations, exercising reasonable care when tripping pipe out of the hole to prevent swabbing, and keeping careful track of the amount of mud put into the hole to replace the volume of pipe removed from the hole during a trip.
Industry:Oil & gas
a specially compounded liquid circulated through the wellbore during rotary drilling operations. See drilling fluid, mud.
Industry:Oil & gas
a formation or horizon of a well from which oil may be produced. The oil zone is usually immediately under the gas zone and on top of the water zone if all three fluids are present and segregated.
Industry:Oil & gas
the fluid, usually a combination of gas, oil, water, and suspended sediment, that comes out of a reservoir. Also called well stream.
Industry:Oil & gas
the heavy seamless tubing used to rotate the bit and circulate the drilling fluid. Joints of pipe are generally approximately 30 feet long are coupled together by means of tool joints.
Industry:Oil & gas
the equipment installed at the surface of the wellbore. A wellhead includes such equipment as the casinghead and tubing head.
