  • Drilling Engineering Laboratory Manual
    KING FAHD UNIVERSITY OF PETROLEUM & MINERALS Department of Petroleum Engineering PETE 203: DRILLING ENGINEERING LABORATORY MANUAL APRIL 2003 PREFACE The purpose of this manual is two fold: first to acquaint the Drilling Engineering students with the basic techniques of formulating, testing and analyzing the properties of drilling fluid and oil well cement, and second, to familiarize him with practical drilling and well control operations by means of a simulator. To achieve this objective, the manual is divided into two parts. The first part consists of seven experiments for measuring the physical properties of drilling fluid such as mud weight (density), rheology (viscosity, gel strength, yield point) sand content, wall building and filtration characteristics. There are also experiment for studying the effects of, and treatment techniques for, common contaminants on drilling fluid characteristics. Additionally, there are experiments for studying physical properties of Portland cement such as free water separation, normal and minimum water content and thickening time. In the second part, there are five laboratory sessions that involve simulated drilling and well control exercises. They involve the use of the DS-100 Derrick Floor Simulator, a full replica of an actual drilling rig with fully operations controls, which allow the student to become completely absorbed in the exercises as he would in an actual drilling operation. The simulator has realistic drilling rig responses that are synchronized to specific events, like rate of penetration, rotary table motion, and actual rig sounds such as accumulator recharge, break drawworks, etc. It is hoped that the material in this manual will effectively supplement the theory aspect presented in the main course.

  • A Modified Device for Rapid Selection of Soil and Water Nematodes from Mixed Suspension
    Nematol. medit. (1976), 4: 245-247. I Section of Plant Pathology and Nematology, Department of Botany, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh-202001, India A MODIFIED DEVICE FOR RAPID SELECTION OF SOIL AND WATER NEMATODES FROM MIXED SUSPENSION by M.M. ALAM An earlier device (Alam, 1975) for selectively picking up large number of soil or fresh water nematodes was modified and appears to be an improvement over similar devices (Minteer, 1965; Shukla et aI., 1971; Khan et al., 1972) because of its speed and semplicity. The entire apparatus can be easily assembled in any laboratory and does not require any specialised components. Assembley and opera­ tion details are as follows: Construction details: Two L-shaped glass tubes (0.5 cm dia­ meter) of 4 and 5 cm lengths were inserted into the neck of a sepa­ rating funnel 'D' (l00 ml capacity) with the help of an air tight rubber stopper. One of the L-shaped tubes (5 cm length) was con­ nected through a rubber tubing (75 cm length, 0.5 cm diameter) to anoter glass tube' E' (15 cm length, 0.7 cm diameter) which was provided with a fine tip (7 cm length). The other L-shaped tube (4 cm length) was connected through a rubber tubing (0.5 cm diameter) of desirable length, to an aspirator' B ' (syn. filter pump) which was attached to a water tap' A'. The separating funnel was supported by a retort stand ' C' (Fig. 1). Operation: Before use, the stopper of the separating funnel , D' was closed and then the water tap 'A' was opened to start suction of air into the aspirator' B' resulting in a partial vacuum in the separating funnel' D '.

Sixteen members and seven visitors were present. Dr. W. P. Mason, of the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. of Troy, N. Y., read a paper on, " Drinking Water and Disease." It was referred for publication. A discussion of the paper, which was.of much interest, followed, and was conducted by the author and Messrs. Pemberton, Jayne and Haines. Mr. Pemberton called attention to the conditions of the water supply of Chester and discussed the effect of Philadelphia sewage upon it. Dr. Bruno Terne presented a paper on "Meat Preservatives," giving a discussion of the ingredients and their effects upon the human system when present in meat used as food. The paper was discussed by the author and Mr. Haines. Adjourned. WM. C. DAY, Secretary. ON THE AMMONIA PROCESS OF WATER ANALYSIS. BY REUBEN HAINES.

The writer prefers the former, although some chemists find the latter fully as accurate and more convenient. The following notes indicate the practice of the writer for a number of years, in addition to the instructions given by Wanklyn. The amount of sample used is one-half litre, or, in some very impure waters, a less quantity of the sample diluted to half a litre with pure distilled water.
