Why oil?
Refined products 45 megajoules/ kg
One gallon carries one airline passenger 45 milesCoal: 24 megajoules per kilogramClub sandwich: 1.3 megajoules
Convenience of liquid fuelLarge amount of power in small volume (“Energy density”)

Early oil discoveriesUsually guided by surface seepage. Lake Maracaibo, Caspian Sea, western PennsylvaniaUsed by ships, seeking tar for repairs.Oil was usually a nuisance encountered when drilling water wellsResearch in mid 1800’s, search to replace whale oil used in lampsFirst rotary drilled well - 1859, Titusville, PA

Blowouts
In movies, often portrayed as success.Today, a blowout is a huge and expensive mistake.

Historical practices
On land, in the USA: Surface owner owns everything to the center of the earth. Often led to inefficiencies, legal battles.
Today, mineral rights on most property are bought and sold separately from the surface land. Field or reservoir usually managed as a single unit.

Today’s drilling
Most wells drilled using rotary drillingSteel drill pipe comes in 30-foot sections that are threaded on both ends.Each section of drill pipe is called a joint. After drilling 30 feet, the kelly must be raised and another joint of pipe added below the kelly. This is called making a connection.

Flow of drilling mud
26
Hydrostatic pressure
Pressure is proportional to:Height (depth) of fluid columnDensity (i.e. lbs/gallon)
Mud column must counterbalance formation pressureDrilling mud 1.5 - 2.5 times more dense than water

Water-based vs. oil-based muds
Water most widely used, but can cause “skin” damage, contaminate formation
In response, oil-based muds were developed
Adverse effects on rubber products, (seals, pump parts), environmental concern

Modern improvements
Major changes in past 20 years are:Computers and software => 3D seismic
Top drive - all offshore rigs, big/deep onshore
MWD - Measure While Drilling technology
Mud motors
Directional drilling => horizontal wells

Horizontal drilling
Multilateral completionsMultiple exit points from main well bore
Increased length of hole exposed to productive formations

Completions
Most wells lined with steel casing. Purposes:
Protect from cave-insProtect surface formations, water supplyIsolate producing formationsPrevent blowouts
Innermost pipe is “tubing”, removable, to isolate flow from casing

Stages of production
Primary recovery - natural flow
Secondary recovery - mechanical pumping, gas lift
Tertiary or Enhanced Oil Recovery - Gas injection, thermal, chemical
38
Workover and well servicing
Together known as “intervention”
Workover rig similar to drilling. Performs acidizing, fracturing stimulation, cementing, deeper drilling, recompletion to a different zone, sidetracking
Well servicing - wireline, rod pulling units, flexible tubing

Other methods

Flowlines and Pipelines
Flowlines link individual wells or groups to a processing facility.
Gas / oil / water separation
Metering
Sand removal
Pipelines lead from field / process facility, ultimately to refinery

Dumb pigs: Cleaning, water displacement, chemical treatmentSmart pigs: Measure internal diameter, inspect for cracking, corrosion
Magnetic flux, X-ray, ultrasonic, video

Peak Oil, or Hubbert’s PeakM. King Hubbert - Shell geophysicist
Theory: production tends to follow bell-shaped curve. Can be predicted in advance.
Production increases early due to discoveries and new infrastructure. Later declines due to depletion.

Peak Oil (cont.)
In 1956, Hubbert predicted peak of USA production late 1960s - early 1970s.Controversial, but proven right by 1976. Actual peak was in 1970.Is it applicable to world production?Rapidly growing demand in China, IndiaNew technologies, increased depletion ratesWhat is the effect of higher real prices?
