| Abstract | ||
| Empirical equation has been presented to predict the optimum hydrodynamic pressure gradient with optimum mud flow rate (one equation) of five Iraqi oil wells to obtain the optimum carrying capacity of the drilling fluid ( optimum transport cuttings from the hole to the surface through the annulus). This equation is a function of mud flow rate, mud density and penetration rate without using any charts or graphs. The correlation coefficient accuracy is more than 0.9999. | ||
