TABLE 1.1 - HEATING VALUE OFVARIOUS FUELS PETE 411 Well Drilling
Example 1.1. A diesel engine gives an output torque of 1,740 ft-lbf at an engine speed of 1,200 rpm. If the fuel consumption rate was 31.5 gal/hr, what is the output power and overall efficiency of the engine? Solution:The angular velocity,w , is given by w= 2p(1,200) = 7,539.8 rad/min.) The power output can be computed using Eq.1.1 PETE 411 Well Drilling
Since the fuel type is diesel, the density is 7.2 lbm/gal and the heating value His 19,000 Btu/lbm (Table 1.1). Thus, the fuel consumption rate w f is: wf= 3.78 lbm/min. The total heat energy consumed by the engine is given by Eq. 1.2: PETE 411 Well Drilling
Efficiency = (Power Out / Power in) Qi = w f H Thus, the overall efficiency of the engine at 1,200 rpm given by Eq. 1.3 is PETE 411 Well Drilling

n = number of lines W = weight (hook load) LD = load on derrick • FIG 1-2 Block and Tackle System Assuming no friction W = 4 T T = W/4 LD = 6 T = 6 W/4 PETE 411 Well Drilling
Example 1.1(no friction) The total weight of 9,000 ft of 9 5/8-inch casing for a deep well is determined to be 400,000 lbs. Since this will be the heaviest casing string run, the maximum mast load must be calculated. Assuming that 10 lines run between the crown and the traveling blocks and neglecting buoyancy effects, calculate the maximum load. PETE 411 Well Drilling
Solution: The tension, T, will be distributed equally between the 10 lines. Therefore, T = 400,000/10 = 40,000 lbf The tension in the fast line and dead line will also be 40,000 lbf, so the total load is 40,000 X 12 = 480,000 lbf PETE 411 Well Drilling
Solution, cont. Example 1.1 demonstrates two additional points. 1.The marginal decrease in mast load decreases with additional lines. 2.The total mast load is always greater than the load being lifted. PETE 411 Well Drilling

Load on Derrick(considering friction in sheaves) Derrick Load = Hook Load + Fast Line Load + Dead Line Load Fd = W + Ff + Fs× E = overall efficiency, e.g., E = en = 0.98n PETE 411 Well Drilling
Example 1.2 A rig must hoist a load of 300,000 lbf. The drawworks can provide an input power to the block and tackle system as high as 500 hp. Eight lines are strung between the crown block and traveling block. Calculate 1. The static tension in the fast line when upward motion is impending, 2. the maximum hook horsepower available, PETE 411 Well Drilling
Example 1.2, cont. 3. the maximum hoisting speed, 4. the actual derrick load, 5. the maximum equivalent derrick load, and, 6. the derrick efficiency factor. Assume that the rig floor is arranged as shown in Fig. 1.17. PETE 411 Well Drilling
Solution 1. The power efficiency for n = 8 is given as 0.841 in Table 1.2. The tension in the fast line is given by Eq. 1.7. Tension in the Fast Line, ( 0.988 = 0.851 ) PETE 411 Well Drilling
Solution 2. The maximum hook horsepower available is Ph = E·pi = 0.841(500) = 420.5 hp. PETE 411 Well Drilling
