Setting a Balanced Cement Plug

Underdisplaced cement plugs are used in drilling operations in order to reduce the risk of fluid loss or fluid contamination. The primary purpose of a cement plug is to isolate an area of the formation from the drillstring and its associated fluids. ... The calculation of the cement plug displacement is based on the amount of cement …

Drilling Jar Types, Calculations & Operation

Drilling jars are one of the BHA components that should be run with the drill string to help free stuck pipes.There are two common types of drilling jars: hydraulic and mechanical. Hydraulic jars use the pressure the string generates to apply an impact load. In contrast, the mechanical type uses a spring-loaded design to create an impact load.
