Abstract
With the increasing global demand for oil and gas, target fields are being expanded into difficult and hard to reach targets. Accordingly, drilling operation in high pressure and high temperature (HPHT) condition is an increasing trend. Under these conditions, there are still many technological challenges including surface and subsurface equipment for drilling and completion.Macondo exploratory well is not categorized in HPHT, as the downhole temperature is not so high. However there are many fields drilled much deeper than 7,000m in the Gulf of Mexico. So HPHT has strong relation with exploration and development in Gulf of Mexico.Under the circumstance, JOGMEC-TRC has conducted the study entitled as “Trend Survey on HPHT Field Development” to investigate current status of HPHT Field development issues.
