The book begins by introducing basic concepts such as the functions of drilling muds; types of drilling fluids; testing of drilling systems; and completion and workover fluids. This is followed by discussions of the composition of the drill string; air and gas drilling operations; and directional drilling. The book identifies the factors that should be considered for optimized drilling operations: health, safety, and environment; production capability; and drilling implementation. It explains how to control well pressure. It details the process of fishing, i.e. removal of a fish (part of the drill string that separates from the upper remaining portion of the drill string) or junk (small items of non-drillable metals) from the borehole. The remaining chapters cover the different types of casing and casing string design; well cementing; the proper design of tubing; and the environmental aspects of drilling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gulf Professional Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45310023794839,"sku":"9781856178433","price":6529.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781856178433.webp?v=1769286824","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/working-guide-to-drilling-equipment-and-operations-9781856178433","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
