CAUSES of KICKS WARNING SIGNS FLOW CHECK
Insufficient Mud Density Drilling Break While Drilling (Any Warning Signs)
Improper Hole Filling Mud Contamination After Drilling a metre or less into a porous Zone
Swabbing Erratic Table Torque Prior to Tripping the Drilling String
Lost Circulation Variation in String Force While Tripping (any Warning Signs)
Mud Contamination Variation in Pump Pressure or Pump Speed After POOH 5% of D.P. Stands
Equipment Failure Pit Gain or Loss Half Way Out
Abnormal Pressure Loss Circulation At the Last D.P. Stand Before D.C.
Hole Does not Take Correct Fill-up VolumeWhile Out of the Hole every 30min
Pipe Pulls Wet After Pulling Dry When in Doubt !!!
FLOW CHECK PROCEDURES
CALL ALERT ( If while Out of the Hole Proceed from: Ensure Hole is Full… )
Hoist Kelly above R. Table and shut-off the pump. (If Tripping, position tool joint above table, install Stabbing Valve
properly, Ensure Hole is Full and Shut off Hole fill pump.) Divert flow to Trip tank. Zero trip tank volume indicator.
Monitor tank for flow for 5 to 10 minutes. If the Well is Flowing Shut it in Immediately. Record any Trip tank Gains.

PROCEDURES FOR SHUT-IN THE WELL

CALL ALERT
While Drilling While Tripping
1 Position Kelly Above Table 1 Position Tool Joint at Table, Release Elevators
2 Shut off Mud Pump 2 Install Stabbing Valve Open, then Close
3 Open HCR Valve to an Open Choke & Degasser 3 Install Kelly, Open Stabbing Valve
4 Close Hydril 4 Open HCR Valve to an Open Choke & Degasser
5 Close Choke Slowly 5 Close Hydril
6 Record: SICP, SIDPP & Pit gain every 2min. 6 Close Choke Slowly
7 Do not Exceed MACP 7 Record: SICP, SIDPP & Pit gain every 2min.
8 Do not Exceed MACP
