Artificial Lifting Systems for Oil & Gas Wells
✅️ Artificial lifting is a process used in oil wells to increase pressure inside the base and lift oil to the surface. When the natural conductive energy of the landfill is not strong enough to push oil onto the surface, … Continue reading
Christmass Tree Components and Functions

Reservoir Stimulation Hydraulic Fracturing
This sheet can be used to perform a complete well model (IPR) for hydraulically fractured oil reservoirs. It can be used to predict the production rate increase after a hydraulic fracture treatment. The sheet also provides:1. Productivity index (PI) calculations before … Continue reading
Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP)
What is a Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP)?A PCP is a positive displacement pump consisting of a helical rotor that rotates within a stator. The interaction between the rotor and stator creates sealed cavities that move fluid progressively from the pump’s … Continue reading

Drilling Problems and Solutions
During drilling operations, some type of a drilling problem will almost certainly occur, even in very carefully planned wells. The reason is that geological conditions for two wells that are near each other may differ (nonhomogeneous formation); therefore, different problems … Continue reading
Sliding Side Door SSD
In the petroleum industry, a sliding side door (SSD) refers to a type of equipment or mechanism, commonly used in well completion tools, particularly in downhole equipment. SSDs are used during well testing, acidizing, or stimulation to control fluid flow … Continue reading
Packers and Bridge Plugs
The blades of the underreamer remain inside the tool for accessing throughrestrictions. Then they expand by centrifugal and hydraulic force when pumpingbegins and the downhole motor begins to turn. For recovery, the blades areretracted again by stopping pumping. Common applications … Continue reading
Cementing Calculation
Cementing Calculation Cementing: The Unsung Hero of Oil & Gas Production Cementing might not be the most glamorous aspect of oil and gas drilling, but it’s undeniably crucial. What is it? Cementing involves injecting specialized cement slurries into the wellbore … Continue reading
