L_Well = (L_c*ρ_s)/ρ_m
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Length of Pipe Hanging in Well - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Pipe Hanging in Well is essential in calculating all other values required in drilling.
Lower Section of Drill String Length - Lower Section of Drill String Length that is in Compression depends on the density of the drilling mud, length of pipe in well and mass density of steel.
Mass Density of Steel - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Mass Density of Steel varies based on the alloying constituents but usually ranges between 7,750 and 8,050 kg/m3.
Density of Drilling Mud - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density of Drilling Mud considering a steel drilling pipe hanging in an oil well.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Lower Section of Drill String Length: 2.97 --> No Conversion Required
Mass Density of Steel: 7750 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 7750 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Density of Drilling Mud: 1440 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1440 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

L_Well = (L_c*ρ_s)/ρ_m --> (2.97*7750)/1440

Evaluating ... ...

L_Well = 15.984375

What is Buoyancy?

Buoyancy is the force that causes objects to float. It is the force exerted on an object that is partly or wholly immersed in a fluid. Buoyancy is caused by the differences in pressure acting on opposite sides of an object immersed in a static fluid. It is also known as the buoyant force.
