2.6.2. Cut Mud Weight

Task is used to perform calculations for mud dilution. Calculations are available for two cases: mud volume might be increased or should be unchanged.

Input Values
Mud Volume The way of operation, is it permissible to increase the volume of the mud or whether it should be unchanged
Initial Mud Weight Density of the mud before the operation
Desired Mud Weight Density of the mud after the operation
Diluting Fluid Density Density of dilution fluid. Must be less than 'Desired Mud Weight'
Initial Mud Volume Volume of the mud before the operation
Results
Final Volume Volume of the mud after operation. In case if Mud Volume is Constant is equal Initial Mud Volume otherwise greater
Dilution Fluid Volume Required volume of dilution fluid
Volume To Be Jetted Volume to be jetted. Greater than 0.0 in case if Mud Volume is equal Constant
