GEOLOGY
Rock and formation types Rock and formation types

differ throughout the entire can vary from
hole section. unconsolidated sands to
extremely hard rock.
Drilling fluids also change
to cope with different Hole integrity is affected by
formations. the rock and formation type.
Each rock and formation Drilling penetration and
type has it’s own inherent casing setting depths are
properties. often determined by rock
and formation types.

SO WHY RUN A LINER?
COST
• Tubulars and associated inspection, threading, protection, etc.
• Rig time to handle, make-up and run additional pipe.
• Wellhead capacity.
• Lead times, storage and delivery of tubulars.
• Well architecture – completion size and type
PERFORMANCE
• Flexibility; ie; Pipe manipulation, system capabilities, etc.
• Cementation integrity.
• Hanging capacity.

7in x 29lb L.80 new Vam body yield strength
= 676,000lbs
= 575,000lbs with 15% safety margin
which equates, in 10lb mud, to 23,310ft of pipe.
Attainable but burst and collapse figures would be

significantly reduced.

8
CASING SPECIFICATIONS
• Geometry - O.D., I.D & length

• Metallurgy - Grade (API or manufacturer specified)
• Connection - Connector type or threaded connection
• ie; 7” 29 lb/ft L-80 New Vam (Size, weight, grade & thread)
• Oilfield standards; API 5CT
9
CASING GEOMETRY
• Outside diameter
- Oilfield standards; API 5CT ( 30”, 20”, 13 3/8”, 9 5/8”, 7”, 5”, etc.)
• Inside diameter
- Dependent on wall thickness (weight); ie; 7” 29 lb/ft = 6.184” I.D.
- Wall thickness; +/- 12.5% (API 5CT)
• Drift diameter
- Commonly API defined; ie; Nominal inside diameter less 0.125”
- 7” 29 lb/ft = 6.184” (Drift 6.059”)
- Specials:- 9 5/8” 53.5 lb/ft (8.535” I.D.) Common bit size:- 8.50”
10
CASING GEOMETRY
• Length
- Oilfield standards:- API 5CT
Range 1:- 16-25ft
Range 2:- 25-34ft
Range 3:- 34-48ft
11
CASING METALLURGY
• Oilfield standards; API 5CT

- H40, J55, K55, L-80, C-95, P-110, Q-125, etc.
- Manufacturer specified, ie; Sumitomo, Kawasaki, Nippon, etc.

- Other standards, ie; AISI, ANSI, ASTM, UNS, etc.
• Metallurgy is critical for design compatibility with service conditions.
•ANSI American national standards inst.

•UNS Unified numberingl system
•AISI American iron & steeel Inst.
•ASTM American society for testing and metals
12
CASING CONNECTIONS
• Manufacturer specified.
- Vallourec, Hydril, Kawasaki, Huntings, Atlas Bradford, etc.
• Physical properties vitally important.

- Burst, Collapse, Tensile, Compression, Torsion, etc.
• Many variations and combinations.

- Long / short, upset / non-upset, metal / elastomeric seal, etc.
• Blanking dimensions must be taken into account for component design
13
OTHER PROPERTIES
• Pressure ratings, ie; Burst & Collapse.
• Tensile & compression.

- Dependent on geometry.
• Torsion.
- Connection type.
• It is vitally important to consider all forces in dynamic applications.

Liner Types
‘PLOP & DROP’ / ‘DROP OFF’ / ‘PUDDLE LINER’
Carried in the hole on the setting sleeve. No PBR.

Liner shoe is set on bottom.
No Liner Hanger to support liner weight.
Setting tool released after the cement job.
Rudimentary liner still run in some locations but generally been

superseded by more modern techniques – note casing is not hung in
tension
15
STANDARD CEMENTED LINER SYSTEM
Carried in the hole on the setting sleeve.

PBR incorporated to facilitate tie-back equipment.
Liner Hanger used to suspend liner from casing.
Setting tool released before the cement job.
Dedicated Landing Collar used to bump wiper plug.
Optimised shoetract for displacement control.
Common architecture in the 50s thru the 80s and common through out the
world
16
CEMENTED LINER SYSTEM WITH INTEGRAL PACKER
Carried in the hole using the Liner Top Packer.

Optimised shoetract for displacement control
As drilling techniques developed and especially with the advent of sub sea
and directional the need to incorporate integral became more apparent
17
TAPERED CEMENTED LINER SYSTEM WITH INTEGRAL PACKER
Tapered Cross-Over run below the Liner Hanger system.

Carried in the hole on the Liner Top Packer.
Simply an adaptation of last slide – common in some areas and does

require specialized equipment in some instances
18
SLOTTED / SCREEN LINER SYSTEM
Carried in the hole on the setting sleeve.

Setting tool released after Hanger has been set.
Slotted liner / Screens for non-cemented applications.
Simple system in it’s basic form where the hanger is being used to hang
the screens in tension BUT can become operationally complex especially
where inner strings are involved.
19
STAGE CEMENTED LINER SYSTEM
WITH INTEGRAL PACKER

Non shear-out Landing Collar used to apply pressure.
Stage Collar used to control cement displacement.
ACP used as a cement retainer.
Cement plug used to close Stage Collar
Company are well equipped to perform these jobs
20
MONO-BORE TIE-BACK CEMENTED LINER SYSTEM WITH INTEGRAL
PACKER
Carried in the hole on the Liner Top Packer

Liner Hanger used to suspend liner from casing
Setting tool released before the cement job
Dedicated Landing Collar used to bump wiper plug
Lower PBR incorporated to facilitate tie-back equipment
Well is completed with mono-bore tie-back system
Liner Hanger System is eliminated from produced fluids
Often run in gas wells
21
ESS LINER SYSTEM
Carried in the hole on the EXP Packer

PBR incorporated to facilitate tie-back equipment
Packer used to suspend ESS from casing
Setting tool released after Packer has been set
ESS expanded on subsequent trip
Specialized Company technology
22
TIE-BACK PACKER SYSTEM
Carried in the hole on a setting sleeve.

Seal stacks provide sealing system for Liner top interface.
Provides a seal between host PBR and casing.
Setting tool released after Packer has been set.
Can be used on any liner that incorporates a liner top PBR
23
SURFACE TIE-BACK SYSTEM
Seal Stem run on tie-back casing string.

Seal Stem provides sealing interface for host PBR.
Can be cemented or un-cemented.
24
SCAB LINER SYSTEM WITH INTEGRAL PACKER

Seal Stem to provide sealing interface with host PBR.
Liner Hanger used to suspend scab liner from casing.
Setting tool released after hanger has been set.
Can be cemented or un-cemented.
Often run to case off worn, damaged or leaking casing
