 Wellhead
It Provide structural and pressure containing interface for the
drilling and production equipment.
provide facility to place BOP while drilling operation.
provide facility to place Christmas tree while production
operation.
provide facility to place pumping head while using artificial
lift.

 Wellhead consist of :
 Casing Tubing head
head
 Casing spool Tubing spool
 Casing hanger Tubing hanger
 Casing head:
 Upper side of casing provide head to next casing
which can be set and seal.
 Itused to isolate annulus of the surface casing
from outside.
 Casing spool:
 Bottom of the casing is attached to the top of the
next casing.
 Provide seal and support and also annular access
for fluid.
 Casing hanger:
 Suspend the load of casing string from casing head.
 Hold down screw to hold the hanger.
Conductor casing (16’’ – 60’’) : At shallow depth to
support and protect the top of the borehole from
erosion while drilling the surface.
This is first and largest diameter pipe install.

Surface casing (8 5/8” -20”): used to isolate the

wellbore.
Prevent the migration of fluid from wellbore to ground
water.

Intermediate casing (7 7/8” -13 3/8): while enter into

pressurized zone in-order to control that pressure in the
targeted formation.

Production casing (4 1/2” – 9 5/8”): final casing run

into wellbore near the pay zone.
Tubing : A conduit through which oil and gas are produce from reservoir to the
surface .
Tubing specification :
parameter defined by API( American
Petroleum Institute)

 Nominal diameter
 Drift diameter: measuring a pipe’s inner
roundness.
 Pipe length: range I: from 20 ft to 24 ft (6.1 to
7.32 m) long, or range II: from 28 ft to 32 ft
(8.53 to 9.75 m) long..
 Nominal weight: Average linear weight of
tubing, pound per foot.(lb/ft).

Cementing : The process of pumping cement slurry down the
annulus between the casing and wellbore. This is known as the
primary cementing.
Christmas tree: A assembly of gate valve, chokes to control the
fluid flow reservoir to the surface. Manufacture standard – API
6A.

 Master valve: Allow to control the flow

from the wellbore.
 Wing valve:
1) production valve: flow path from
which reservoir fluid can flow.
2) Kill valve : For injection purpose.
 Swab/ crown valve: Provide vertical
access to the wellbore and allow well
intervention.

 Choke :
 A choke valve is to control the flow of fluids produced from
wells.
 Manufactured in accordance with API 6A and API 16C
standard
 Choke type :
 Positive choke/ bean choke: Non- adjustable choke
 Needle type choke: adjustable choke

 GLM : (Gas lift mandrel)

 GLM – injection of miscible gas thru gas lift mandrel

into oil to reduce its density of oil and increase the
flow toward surface.
 Sliding sleeve door :
 SSD used to establish or shut off communication between the
tubing and the casing annulus.
 Circulation between tubing and annulus.
 Get production from selective zone.

 Landing nipple :

 It is designed to allow a lock mandrel to locate and lock into the

nipple’s internal profile.
 X – selective nipple
 XN – No go nipple.
  Packer: A hardware completion tool for an oil and gas well.
It provide a seal between annulus and the formation fluid.
 Type of packers:
 Weight set packer:
 Tension set packer:
 Compression set packer:
 Hydraulic set packer:

 Weight set packer:

 To release the slips are usually obtained using a J slot device
 Cone to move behind the slip
 Tubing weight is applied to expand the packing element
 Tension packer:
 Set by slight rotation of packer.
 Most suitable for shallow formation
 Retrievable packer
 Compressional set packer:
 provided with internal lock system
 Initiated by rotation of working string
 Used in deeper wells and its a permanent packer

 Hydraulic set packer:

 It is utilizing the fluid pressure acting on the
piston to drive the cone behind the slip.
 Used in horizontal and inclined wells.
Safety valve:
 A component on an oil and gas well, which acts as a failsafe
to prevent the uncontrolled release of reservoir fluids
 Creates a barrier in the tubing to prevent fluids from rushing
up into the tubing.

o Surface control sub-surface safety valve: That the

safety valve is remotely controlled from the
surface.

o Sub-surface control sub-surface safety valve: It

has a pre-set value + margin safety value.
Well completion : the process of making a well ready for production
after drilling operations.

Open Hole completion : Cased Hole completion :

sand production.
Sand control method:
 Bare foot completion
 Pre-slotted linear
 Stand-alone screen
 Gravel pack

 Bare foot completion:

 Entire pay zone is exposed to
production.
 Minimum formation damage.
 Sand production cannot be control.
 Pre-slotted linear :
 An alternative for production casing.
 Less sand control.
 Due to sand production linear get corrode.
 Good for the formation produce uniform sand.

 Stand-alone screen:
Wire-wrapped screen:
 slot –width is act as bridge the debris
above the screen.
 Gravel pack technique:
 It control sand production.
 Optimum gravel size
 Optimum screen slot width.

sand sieve analysis

 Single zone completion:

 Single completions where the reservoirs

are either shallow or very deep.
 If the formation is very shallow, then
drilling costs are minimal and single
completions are usually best.
 In very deep wells, single completions are
preferred because of the complexity and
expense involved with a dual or
multiphase completion in reservoirs.
 Dual completion :

 Completion of a well in which two

separate formations may be produced
at the same time.
 We use two tubing string in order to
get the production from each pay
zone at the same time .
 Multiple completions:
 Multiple completions include the
tubing-casing dual, dual tubing
strings, and the typical triple
completion consisting of three tubing
strings.
 operating and workover costs can be
quite high.
 main advantage of multiple
completions is that two or more
reservoirs can be simultaneously
produced from a single wellbore.
