The Petroleum Extension Service (PETEX) is a unit of the Division of Continuing Education at The University of Texas at Austin and has been training companies and individuals since 1944.
The equipment for transporting and using coiled tubing, including a reel for the coiled tubing, an injector head to push the tubing down the well, a wellhead blowout preventer stack, a power source (usually a diesel engine and hydraulic pumps), and a control console. A unique feature of the unit is that it allows continuous circulation while it is being lowered into the hole. A coiled tubing unit is usually mounted on a trailer or skid.
Industry:Oil & gas
The process in which reservoir fluids are caused to flow out of the reservoir rock and into a wellbore by natural energy. Gas drive depends on the fact that, as the reservoir is produced, pressure is reduced, allowing the gas to expand and provide the principal driving energy. Water drive reservoirs depend on water and rock expansion to force the hydrocarbons out of the reservoir and into the wellbore. Also called natural drive energy.
Industry:Oil & gas
A workover performed with a continuous steel tube, normally 0.75 inch to 1 inch (1.9 to 2.54 centimeters) outside diameter, which is run into the well in one piece inside the normal tubing. Lengths of the tubing up to 16,000 feet (4,877 meters) are stored on the surface on a reel in a manner similar to that used for wireline. The unit is rigged up over the wellhead. The tubing is injected through a control head that seals off the tubing and makes a pressure-tight connection.
Industry:Oil & gas
Oil in place in the reservoir; retained in a reservoir as residual gas saturation is an inverse function of the pressure, due to the physics of gas.
Industry:Oil & gas
A fine, very hard, grey crystalline powder, a compound of tungsten and carbon. This compound is bonded with cobalt or nickel in cemented carbide compositions and used for cutting tools, abrasives, and dies.
Industry:Oil & gas
1. a coupling device used to join two lengths of pipe, such as casing or tubing. A combination collar has left-hand threads in one end and right-hand threads in the other. 2. a drill collar.
Industry:Oil & gas
The average pressure within the reservoir at any given time. Determination of this value is best made by bottomhole pressure measurements with adequate shut-in time. If a shut-in period long enough for the reservoir pressure to stabilise is impractical, then various techniques of analysis by pressure buildup or drawdown tests are available to determine static reservoir pressure.
Industry:Oil & gas
A type of roller cone bit with inserts made of tungsten carbide. Also called tungsten carbide insert bit.
Industry:Oil & gas
A logging device used to determine accurately the depth of a well; the log measures and records the depth of each casing collar, or coupling, in a well.
