Hydrostatic pressure in annulus due to slug

Input(s)

Va\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{a}}: Volume of Annulus (ft/bbl)(\mathrm{ft} / \mathrm{bbl})

Vs\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{s}}: Volume of Slug (bbl)(\mathrm{bbl})

Ws\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{s}}: Slug Weight (ppg)(\mathrm{ppg})

Wm\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{m}}: Mud Weight (ppg)(\mathrm{ppg})

Output(s)

P: Hydrostatic Pressure (psi)

Formula(s)

P=Va Vs( WsWm)0.052\mathrm{P}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{a}} * \mathrm{~V}_{\mathrm{s}} *\left(\mathrm{~W}_{\mathrm{s}}-\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{m}}\right) * 0.052
