Cost ControlCost Control Dr.Robello SamuelDr.Robello Samuel Well Planning… • Primary consideration in the planning of drilling well is economics. So cost analysis is very much required for the completion of a well. Economic feasibility is established from cost estimation. • AFE (Authorization for Expenditure) is an effective method of accounting the expenditures involved in drilling and completing the well. This gives the detailed cost estimate for a well. • Optimized drilling program to achieve cost control Well Planning… • Area Geology • Formation pore pressure and fracture prediction • Logging program • Casing program • Mud program • Cementing program • Casing running and handling • Wellcontrol equipment and procedure • Bottom-hole assemblies • Hydraulics • Drillbit program • Drilling Rig Drilling Time curve… A drilling time curve should be included in the program planning and compared daily with the actual progress. When the differences occur between the predicted and actual corrective measures should be taken. actual Depth in ft planned Days/$ Well Cost Estimation… • Overall well cost excluding the production may be expressed as follows: C = C + C wdo d o C is the cost of drilling a foot of hole that includes d bit cost and rig rental cost C is related to all other cost to make the hole such as o casings, muds, drillstring, cementing, logging..etc Drill Cost Analysis… Synthesis of cost 1. Drill bit cost 2. Rig cost 3. Cost of rotating time 4. Cost of connec
