42、es from various IADC member companies;represent a composite of the practices employed by various operating companies, service companies and drillingcontractors in managed pressure drilling operations. In some cases, a reconciled composite of the various practicesemployed by these companies was utili

43、zed. This publication is under the jurisdiction of the American PetroleumInstitute, Drilling and Production Operations Subcommittee. Managed pressure drilling operations are being conducted with full regard for personnel safety, public safety, andpreservation of the environment in such diverse condi

44、tions as urban sites, wilderness areas, ocean platforms, deepwater sites, very hot barren deserts, cold weather areas including the arctic environment and wildlife refuges. As toolsand equipment continually improve and develop, the technology has been applied in many geologic formations,including oi

45、l and gas reservoirs and on sour wells, thus driving the need for globally accepted standards and safeoperating best practices. vii1Managed Pressure Drilling Operations with Surface Back-pressure1ScopeThis document provides information for planning, installation, testing and operation of wells drill

46、ed with surface back-pressure managed pressure drilling (MPD). This document applies only to drilling rigs with surface blowoutpreventers (BOPs).This document considers situations where the total drilling operation is performed balanced or overbalanced,including both hydrostatically overbalanced (no

47、 supplemental surface pressure needed to control inflow) andhydrostatically underbalanced (supplemental surface pressure needed to control inflow) systems. For underbalancedoperations, refer to API 92U.This document does not cover MPD operations with subsea BOP stacks. 2 Terms, Definitions, and Abbr
