Résumé
This article, written by Assistant Technology Editor Karen Bybee, contains highlights of paper SPE 98279, "Pore Pressure Prediction and Drilling Challenges: A Case Study of Deepwater, Subsalt Drilling From Nova Scotia, Canada," by C. Marland, SPE, and S. Nicholas, SPE, Halliburton; W. Cox, EnCana Corp.; C. Flannery, SPE, Murphy Oil Sdn. Bhd.; and B. Thistle, Nexen Inc., prepared for the 2006 IADC/SPE Drilling Conference, Miami, Florida, 21-23 February. Offshore eastern Canada is an environment where deep water and the need to penetrate thick salt sheets increase the difficulties faced by drillers. The full-length paper details a deepwater, subsalt-drilling case history and examines the challenges of dealing with high pore pressures and variable fracture gradients. During drilling, conditions were encountered that required use of unconventional borehole sizes and on-the-fly drilling-design modification to deploy unplanned equipment rapidly. Introduction The Weymouth A-45 well is approximately 160 miles south by southeast from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, in the deepwater area of the Scotian shelf. Seismic analysis identified the presence of a subsalt anomaly, the 150-m-thick Argo salt sequence. This sequence presented a potential drilling challenge and also a problem for prewell pore-pressure and fracture-gradient planning. Because of the challenges posed by the deepwater environment and the thick salt deposit, the well included a complex well design with concentric hole openers and an unconventional casing design. Despite potential hazards and complex well design, the drilling program allowed flexibility in decision processes and in well design to deal with problems encountered. Flexibility was particularly important when drilling through the salt body with a point-the-bit rotary-steerable system (RSS). Although the RSS was not planned for use below the salt, the success of the system in the shallower parts of the well led to its use below the salt and highlighted the flexibility of rotary-steerable technology. Planning and Design In August 2002, three seismic lines and six offset wells were used for initial analysis of the Weymouth Prospect. These data were used to generate overburden, pore-pressure, and fracture-pressure predictions. The six offset wells, including two deepwater wells, showed two different pore-pressure regimes unrelated to water depth. The first pore-pressure regime was characterized by normal pore-pressure gradients to approximately 2900 m followed by a slow increase in pressure, averaging 22 kg/m3 equivalent circulating density (ECD) per 100 m through to total depth (TD). The second pore-pressure profile had a steeper pressure "ramp" from 3600 m with a rapid pore-pressure increase to 1800 kg/m3 and greater by well TD.
