`
`WELL
`
`COMPLETION
`
`fter a well has been drilled and the company has determined that the
`reservoir will be economical to produce, the work of setting the final
`string of casing, preparing the well for production, and bringing in the oil
`or gas begins.
`Completion equipment and the methods employed are quite varied,
`and operators make the decisions for an individual well based on the type of
`oil or gas accumulations involved, the requirements that may develop dur»
`ing the life of the well, and the economic circumstances at the time the work
`is done. An operator may use low-pressure pipe, sometimes secondhand, if
`the oil accumulation has a marginal payout, and other expenditures will be
`scaled down accordingly. If the operator anticipates high pressure and a long
`well life, however, the best grade of pipe will be necessary.
`
`Production Casing and Liners
`Many oil and gas wells require four concentric strings of large pipe, each
`one reaching to the surface: conductor pipe, surface casing, intermediate casing,
`and production casing (fig. 5.3). The production casing is often called the of!
`string or the long string in the oil patch and is the final casing for most wells.
`Usually, the production casing oompletely seals off the producing formation,
`but in rare in-stances the production casing stops near or just on top of the
`potential pay zone.
`Another type of pipe that is not uncommon in wells over 10,000 feet
`(3,048 metres) is called a liner. Liners are really just like casing-uthat is, they
`serve the same purpose—but they do not extend all the way to the surface
`(fig. 5.4). Instead, a liner hangs from the end of larger casing above it by
`means of a liner hanger. A liner can function as production casing, in which
`case it is called a production liner. Since it does not go to the surface, which is
`sometimes a considerable distance, the operator has a lower pipe cost.

`Figure 5.3 Conductor, surface, intermediate, and production casing are cemented
`in the well. Note that the production casing is set through the producing zone and
`seals it off.
`
`Figure 5.4 A production liner is ce-
`mented in place but hangs from the
`botlom of the inicnnediate casing rather
`than extending to the surface.
