INTRODUCTION TYPE AND FUNCTIONS OF CASING CASING DESIGN CASING COMPONENTS SETTING CASING CONCLUSION
INTRODUCTION
Steel pipes used to ensure a pressure-tight connection Manufactured in joints that range from 16 to 48 ft 15 to 20% of the complete cost of the well Casing serves many functions
Conductor pipe:
Including the following: The conductor pipe is used to minimize hole caving problems. Cover freshwater zone
Maintain hole integrity by preventing caving. Provides a support for attaching the BOP
Intermediate casing:
Its setting depth is to isolate:
It has the following purposes: Troublesome formations Loss zones Protect the production Shallow hydrocarbon tubing equipment. Water sands producing zone Isolate the from the other formations Provide a work shaft of a known diameter to the pay zone.
CASING DESIGN
Casing has to withstand:

Rig up casing handling and running equipment(weldless links, fill-up tool, side door elevator, safety clamps, casing slips, spider slips and elevator).
A crane is used to lift joints of casing, each joint should be protected with a tread protector.

CONCLUSION:
casing is one of the most costly operation in the rotary drilling so that it has to be carefully treated and accurately measured to avoid any undesired failure. Rigorous instructions, preventive maintenance and special equipment
