CASING DESIGN PRINCIPLES (TRAINING SOLUTIONS)

CASING DESIGN PRINCIPLES (TRAINING SOLUTIONS)

•Lecture Contents;

–Lecture Objectives,

–Definitions,

–Casing Design Criteria,

•Collapse,

•Burst,

•Tension.

•Lecture Objectives

–At the end of this lecture YOU will be able to:

•Be familiar with the design criteria that is taken into consideration when a casing string is to be designed with respect to:

–Collapse,

–Burst,

–Tension.

•List the design safety factors.

•Definition;

–Casing design involves the determination of factors which influence the failure and the selection of the most suitable casing grades and weights for specific operations,

– The casing program should also reflect the completion and production requirements,

–A good knowledge of the stress analysis and the ability to apply it are necessary for the design of casing strings.
