14、ropriate API recommended practice. This document has been prepared with input from operators, drilling contractors, servicecompanies, consultants and regulators. It is based on experiences in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.Users in other deepwater basins may use the document with appropriate modications to

15、meet their conditions. The document focus is on the drilling and cementing of casings in theshallow sediments of deepwater wells in which highly permeable and over-pressured sandsare found. These over-pressured sands frequently lead to ows of water during drilling andcasing operations and after ceme

16、nting. Such ows can have very costly and catastrophicresults if not controlled. The body of the document discusses pertinent points relating to siteselection, drilling and cementing the large diameter casing strings placed in this environ-ment. A number of “best practices“ have been developed by tho

17、se involved in constructingwells in deep water and are discussed throughout the text. In addition, appendices deal withsome specic aspects of the process, including drilling practices, cementing process andinterpretation of the shallow ow risk.As this document has been a team effort, so must the dri

18、lling and casing of the shallowsediments where there is risk of shallow water ows (SWF). All parties involved must beworking and communicating together to ensure the successful construction of the conductorand surface casings through the shallow hazards.API publications may be used by anyone desirin

47、n deep water. In anumber of cases, there is not a single way of performing aspecic operation. In some cases, several options may belisted, but in others there may be practices which are success-ful, but which are not listed in this document. This documentis not meant to limit innovation.In wells dri

48、lled in deep ocean waters, water ows fromshallow formations can compromise the hydraulic integrity ofthe tophole section. Modes of failure include: (1) poor isola-tion by cement resulting in casing buckling/shear; (2) pres-sure communication to other shallow formations causingthem to be overpressure

49、d; and (3) disturbance of the seaoordue to breakthrough of the shallow ow to the mudline. Suchdamage can and has resulted in the complete loss of drillingtemplates containing previously cased wells. Additionally,such shallow ow can result in changes in the state of stressin the tophole section, possibly resulting to damage to exist-ing casings in the present or adjacent wells later in the life ofthe well.Flows from these shallow formations are frequently aresult of abnormally high pore pressure resulting from under-compacted and over-pressured sands caused by rapid deposi
