Estudio técnico estadístico de tiempos no productivos de las operaciones involucradas en la perforación de los pozos del campo Auca durante el año 2014

Abstract

This project aims to reduce drilling costs by eliminating the problems which cause non-productive time and the development of a mathematical model that obtains the optimal rate of penetration in drilling operations. Then, the structure of this project according to the content of each chapter is displayed. The first chapter consists of geological, geographical, lithological and stratigraphic description of the Auca field. The theoretical information used for the development of this project is described in the second chapter. The third chapter has the drilling activities of the Auca field wells; the statistical analysis performed to the problems presented in these wells is also described. The presentation of the mathematical model of the drilling parameters is in the fourth chapter, which describes the behavior of the average rate of penetration based on two or more drilling parameters. Also, this chapter contains the solutions to the problems described in the third chapter that cause non-productive time. The economic analysis is presented in the fifth chapter, which is based on the cost obtained by the non-productive time and the economic study for the mathematical model presented in the fourth chapter. Finally, the sixth chapter presents the conclusions and recommendations of this project.
