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.

v: To stop drilling or production operations when it becomes unprofitable. A wildcat may be abandoned after poor results from a well test. Cement plugs are placed in the wellbore to prevent fluid migration between different zones.

n: an acid treatment in which an acid mixture is circulated through a wellbore to clean it.

v: to treat oil-bearing limestone or other formations with acid for the purpose of increasing production. Hydrochloric or other acid is injected into the formation under pressure. The acid etches the rock, enlarging the pore spaces and passages through which the reservoir fluids flow. Acid also removes formation damage by dissolving material plugging the rock surrounding the wellbore. The acid is held under pressure for a period of time and then pumped out, after which the well is swabbed and put back into production. Chemical inhibitors combined with the acid prevent corrosion of the pipe. acid recovery plant n: plant for therecovery of sulfuric acid from acid sludge.

v: To apply acids to the wall of oil and gas wells to remove any material that might obstruct flow into the wellbore.

n pl: the characteristic patterns for various degrees of cement bonding between the casing and the borehole that appear on an oscilloscope display when a sonic cement bond log is made.

n: The circulating fluid for drilling. It content the drilling fluid both in the wellbore and surface circulating system.

n: one of usually two, three, or more mud tanks that holds drilling mud that is being circulated into a borehole during drilling. They are called active tanks because they hold mud that is currently being circulated.

n: The process in which the bit continually breaks the formation and deepend the wellbore. It is controled by the driller who operates the brake crank and set down the drilling string to keep definite weight on bit.
