2.6.1. Mud Weight Up |
Task is used to perform calculations for mud weighting up. Calculations are available for two cases: mud volume might be increased or should be unchanged.
| Input Values | ||
 |
Mud Volume | Increase; Constant. 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 |
|
Sp.Gr. Weighting Material | Specific gravity of weighting material |
|
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 |
|
Weight of Weighting Material | Required amount of weighting material |
|
Increase Volume | Difference between initial and final volumes of mud. Greater than 0.0 in case if Mud Volume is equal Increase |
|
Volume to be Jetted | Volume to be jetted. Greater than 0.0 in case if Mud Volume is equal Constant |
