George King is a technology provider in the oil and gas industry specializing in new technology and problem oil well solutions.
Fluid property of being a semi-solid gel at rest and liquid when pumped. Thixotropic fluids decrease in viscosity with time at shear.
Industry:Oil & gas
Fluids returning to the surface without cuttings or other solids removed from the well.
Industry:Oil & gas
For a strict definition, a 90o deviated well. Actually the well covers a range of “highly” deviated wells (80o to >90o). In the strictest terms, the deviation is measured as 90o from vertical, but tilting bedding planes may make the deviation to the bedding planes a different judgment.
Industry:Oil & gas
For CO2 corrosion potential; the mole fraction of the gas times the total pressure.
Industry:Oil & gas
Force exerted by a centralizer against the casing to keep it away from the wellbore wall.
Industry:Oil & gas
Forced circulation of fluid through the perfed interval with the intent of generating communication between perforations or intervals.
Industry:Oil & gas
Forcing fluids in the pipe into the formation at a pressure higher than the pore pressure and sometimes higher than the fracturing breakdown pressure. Used to displace a kick out of the pipe when wellbore and wellhead pressure limits permits.
