George King is a technology provider in the oil and gas industry specializing in new technology and problem oil well solutions.
The pressure at which the separator is operated. This pressure is a direct backpressure on the well.
Industry:Oil & gas
The pressure exerted by a column of a single density fluid. For a non-compressible fluid the pressure (in psi) at any depth = 0.052 x depth x fluid density in lb/gal.
Industry:Oil & gas
The pressure exerted by the gas phase (vaporized liquid) in equilibrium with the system conditions.
Industry:Oil & gas
The pressure generated by the mud pumps and, in normal circulation, exerted on the drill string.
Industry:Oil & gas
The pressure necessary to achieve a given non-wetting fluid saturation of a rock.
Industry:Oil & gas
The pressure necessary to extend the fracture once initiated. The fracture extension pressure may rise slightly with increasing fracture length and/or height because of friction pressure drop down the length of the fracture. Fracture roughness, fracture width and fluid viscosity also have influence on extension pressure.
Industry:Oil & gas
The pressure necessary to start a fracture from the wellbore.
Industry:Oil & gas
The pressure of the fluid in the formation. The initial reservoir pressure is the pressure at discovery.
Industry:Oil & gas
The pressure on the annulus side when the well is shut-in.
