3. Pilot Test of Underbalanced Drilling in Arun field and subsequent Drilling of 6 wells, 1998

Underbalanced Drilling was the only viable option to drill in the sour, severely underpressured, ARUN formation in North Sumatra. ARUN was one of the first HPHT fields in the world to be developed (1978). In addition to corrosive environment (60 ppm H2S and 15% CO2), and low pressure (1.8 ppg equivalent), expected downhole temperatures were in excess of 350 degrees F. Moreover, Natural Gas produced in the field was determined to be the only commercially viable gas phase for the gas-water drilling fluid. As a result, development of surface and downhole equipment were two of the major challenges in the implementation of underbalanced drilling.

I was the project engineer instrumental to development, installation and performance of a purpose-built surface system to handle high-temperature, corrosive, gas-water-foam returns. In order to keep the costs under control, existing inventory was used to build the surface equipment in-house. The system therefore uses typical mud gas separators, settling tanks, controls and choke systems to create a fully-closed underbalanced returns-handling system. An innovative recycling cooling system was also designed, in order to cool the returns to allow liquid condensation before separation. The system was installed and used to collect data during the pilot project. It performed successfully and was used to drill 8 wells, and in slightly modified form drilled 4 wells in PASE field.

Key areas that I developed or supervised:

* Assessment of the drilling rig and modifications necessary to make it safe for UBD
* Hazop preparation, review of drilling procedures, and other safety issues to pass a full safety review of the project.
* Supervision of the design, procurement and installation of the equipment. Surface equipment was complex because of the restrictions of operating in a production cluster, between producing wells. Also due to limitations in UBD drilling models for ARUN conditions, a lot of data had to be gathered resulting in data acquisition, process control and command center being run from a control building.
* Design of the pilot test to ensure that sufficient data was collected to enable successful planning of subsequent drilling.
* Personnel training, fire protection of site, deluge systems were also part of my scope.

More detail on Pilot Test goals

The ARUN field is a prolific gas and condensate producing carbonate field located in upper Sumatra, Indonesia. The field has been producing for 20 years with peak production exceeding 2,000 MMSCFD. The pressure in the reservoir has dropped from 7600 psi to 900 psi, due to production. Conventional drilling is no longer possible. The last attempt at conventional drilling, in 1995, resulted in total loss of returns and 31 cases of stuck pipe. In an effort to increase production, Mobil Oil Indonesia initiated a study to determine if underbalance drilling was a viable technology for the field.

The environment in the ARUN reservoir posed many problems not encountered previously with UBD. The bottom hole temperature is 354 degrees F. This temperature precluded the use of conventional PDM motors typically used in UBD operations. The temperature also exceeded the limits of wireline directional and pressure sensor tools.

The temperature along with the make up of the produced gas, also raised the question of the correct fluid that should be utilized. In an effort to answer the questions of model accuracy and to determine the correct fluid to be used, the decision was made to conduct a flow test, prior to drilling the first well. The flow test was devised to test multiple fluid types, motors and simulator models to determine the optimum system to be used in the drilling campaign.

A system for handling the return fluid, collecting the required data for analysis and separating the fluid at surface was required. Analysis of commercially available systems showed that they were not capable of handling the anticipated surface temperatures and flowrates at low-pressure heads. Inquiries into the cost of modifying a system and leasing it for the drilling campaign showed that this would be cost prohibitive. The decision was made to develop a purpose built system for the project, using redundant equipment from the ARUN production facility.

4. Drilling with Light Weight Fluids 1999-2001

In 1998 a Joint Industry Project was formed under the umbrella of the university foundation COPPETEC and Petrobras, the Brazilian state oil company. Members include several major operators and service companies: Amerada Hess, ExxonMobil, Shell, Weatherford, Alfa Laval and Impact. The project aims were the development of technology to deliver the benefits of underbalanced and low head drilling to the floating drilling industry, and in particular deep water.
Impact personnel have been involved from initial conceptualization, and the company became formally involved in the project as members at commencement of Phase II. During this phase my contribution was:
* Prepare HAZOP * Chair and follow-up HAZOP * Chair second HAZOP * Provide technical advice for implementation of the field test * Advice and verification of new surface equipment design * Review of calculations and P&ID's * Verification of rig installation * Preparation of detailed procedures * Close out of HAZOP items
Project Description
An initial Phase I of conceptualization and development was followed up with Phase II, the planning and implementation of a field test of the conceptual system on a semi-submersible drilling unit. The concept developed involved the injection of both drilling mud and Nitrogen through the drillpipe to reduce the overall fluid density to a near balance condition. It was then necessary to cap the drilling riser to divert multi-phase returns through a surface separation system.This involved decoupling the riser at the balljoint, locking the slip joint closed and operating with an unhinged riser configuration.This was a new operation for Petrobras and also utilised some unique equipment developments as outlined below:

1. Utilisation of a Rotating Control Head to cap the top of the riser whilst drilling in the reservoir.A key difference between onshore and floating vessel applications of light weight fluids drilling is the operational procedures and precautions necessary to control pressures in the riser. The riser is not designed to tolerate high pressures. The semi-submersible rig is equipped with a 21" riser, which has a collapse resistance of 660 psi when full of gas and can tolerate an internal pressure of 500 psi before leaking. For this well the riser can stand full evacuation.2. Utilisation of a purpose built fluids separation system with a reduced footprint to allow installation within the space limitations imposed by a floating vessel. The design incorporates advanced control technology to handle the variations in flow volume and pressure common during such operations.This system, with the associated new procedures, was an industry first. It involved the installation of several new facilities and modifications to the existing rig equipment. Hence, to ensure the potential hazards were effectively managed and that appropriate controls were put in place, a hazard and operability (HAZOP) assessment was made of the overall installation, procedures and process several months prior to the test.
The Field TestPetrobras XVII was selected as the test rig to drill Albacora 64H development well in the Campos Basin as the test well. Modifications to the rig commenced in June and the test was successfully conducted in December 2000 in 300m of water depth offshore Brazil.
The field test was essentially a dress rehearsal prior to full system implementation. As such the objectives were realistic, aimed at establishing the feasibility of the concept. In summary these objectives were:
* Test and refine the newly developed operational procedures * Inject Nitrogen to reduce the hydrostatic head while drilling (while maintaining overbalance) * Demonstrate the ability to cap the drilling riser * Test Surface System capacity to handle 3 phase separation: solids, liquids & gas * Test the total system's capability to handle nitrified drilling fluid * Collect data for system * Gain experience in lightweight fluid operations from a Semi-submersible

5. Complex UBD Intervention in Arun Gas Field 2001 - 2003

Based on my previous experience in Arun, ExxonMobil Oil Indonesia Inc. contracted Impact Engineering Solutions and I was seconded to project manage the UBD section of the last new drills in Arun field.

An existing UBD surface handling systems was extensively modified and new procedures developed based on original Arun experience to drill 6 new wells with 9-5/8" – 10" monobore completions.

Reservoir pressure was very low, 400 – 700 psi, but flowrates still very high when drilling up to 25 mm SCFD at 50psi surface pressure. Safety was a key concern and the whole project was completely run under the ExxonMobil Oil Indonesia Inc. OIMS system (Operational Integrity Management System) which was a first full achievement for a complex drilling operation in Indonesia.
