The value of the pressure on the bit multiply the rate of drilling in rotary drilling.

n: 1. a derrick or crane shaped like the letter A and used to handle heavy loads. 2. an A-shaped openwork structure that is the stationary and supporting component of the mast of a jackknife rig and to which the mast is anchored when it is in an upright or drilling position. 3. the uppermost section of a standard derrick, shaped like the letter A and used as a support in lifting objects such as the crown block to the water table.

n: A kind of "A" frame gin pole, used to elevate heavy object.

abbr: ampere-hour.

allowable annular surface pressure.

v: to cease producing oil and gas from a well when it becomes unprofitable or to cease further work on a newly drilled well when it proves not to contain profitable quantities of oil or gas. Several steps are involved: part of the casing may be removed and salvaged;one or more cement plugs are placed in the borehole to prevent migration of fluids between the different formations penetrated by the borehole;and the well is abandoned. In most oil-producing states, it is necessary to secure permission from official agencies before a well may be abandoned.

to cease efforts to produce or inject fluids in a wells and to plug the well sufficiently to protect the environment and the ability to redrill and develop other reserves at a later date.

n: termination of a jurisdictional sale or service. Under Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission must determine in advance that the present or future public convenience and necessity" or depletion of gas supplies requires termination.

n: the average reservoir pressure at which an amount of gas insufficient to permit continued economic operation of a producing gas well is expelled. abd, abdn abbr: abandoned;used in drilling reports.

The minimum pressure of the reservoir when the wells are abandoned.

a failure mode that can cause the cancellation-of or immediate-halt-to a project or event. Generally expressed as a percent probability.

n: A formation pressure that is higher than the normal formation fluid hydrostatic pressure.

n: pressure exceeding or falling below the pressure to be expected at a given depth. Normal pressure increases approximately 0.465 pow1ds per square inch per foot of depth or 10.5 kilopascals per metre of depth. Thus, normal pressure at 1,000 feet is 465 pounds per square inch;at 1,000 metres it is 10,500 kilopascals. See pressure gradient.

n: A formation pressure that deviates from the normal formation fluid hydrostatic pressure. Such pressure may be classified as "subnormal" (lower than normal) or "overpressured" (higher than normal).
