The hydrostatic trough is used to extract fluids from a well, including pumping out oil, water, muds and other fluids accumulated during drilling or operation.
Hydrostatic pressure monitoring:
This tool is also used to measure the pressure in the well at various depths to help assess the condition of the reservoir and make decisions about further action.
Well Productivity and Well Diagnostics:
The chute helps in the process of well diagnostics by providing analysis of pressure, temperature and other parameters, which is important for efficient operation and accident prevention.
Working principle of hydrostatic trough:
Submergence into the well:
The trough is lowered into the well, where it collects fluid samples or pumps out water or oil.
Pressure measurement:
When operating in a well, the trough measures hydrostatic pressure, which is then used to diagnose well conditions and to determine formation potential.
Fluid extraction:
In some cases, the chute is used to pump out accumulated fluids, such as after drilling is completed or in case of emergencies.
Advantages of using a hydrostatic trough:
Accurate Pressure Measurement: Provides accurate data on well condition and productivity, allowing you to make the right decisions during operation.
Efficiency in fluid recovery: Helps to efficiently recover fluids from the well, keeping the drilling or operating process running smoothly.
Reservoir diagnostics: The reservoir can be used to monitor pressure and other indicators, enabling rapid response to changes in reservoir condition and preventing accidents.
Reliability and safety: Avoids possible unpredictable situations related to overpressure or fluid buildup, reducing the risk of accidents.
